The commentator needs Apple AirPods with noise cancellation

[sirdanielhunt]

Is no one going to comment about the signs behind him?

[ljacobs]

Same iPhone as last year. Bunch of hype. Save your money and invest in your future.

[DavyoInVegas]

Everything I’m seeing says the demand for the 16 series is not in big demand.
Obviously Tim is not going to admit that.

[TSAVVVV]

Say what you want about apple, I've never seen a line for ANY smasung phone.

[tiagomaqz]

People in the background holding signs saying “Apple stop selling unsafe phones to kids”. What do they mean though? These people are a joke!

[HelloWorld-hbyt]

people still waiting on line for iphones?

Steve Jobs may have been an egomaniac, but he was also a perfectionist. When people rightfully called out the dead grip on the iphone 4 Steve Jobs buckled and offered a case for free. Was it a fix? No, but it was a risk in design and function. Something the Iphone 16 is not. Its selling features are a software update that won't release for a few months not including beta release. Its pathetic really.

The best noticeable feature of the iPhone 16 is the thinnest and lightweight feel of it. Everything else is unforgettable!

4K @120 is a big deal. Although Galaxy has had them for years 😂

I just love iOS 18.0 updates from CEO Tim Cook team as of now for my 2 year's old iPhone 12 now :)

I can honestly say it’s time for Tim Cook to probably step aside as CEO, maybe more of a COO or chairman role better suits him, innovation is not his thing and that’s ok, he’s a numbers guy, let him focus solely on that……maybe let John Ternus or Dan Riccio take over, or someone outside Apple with a fresh set of eye

[ChristianRivera-wgnv]

Let’s be honest Apple releases in the USA will always have high demand

[Anonymous-mubl]

Tim always is always in the cloud or dreaming in colour.

[Steven-unix]

Apple CEO, Tim Cook is back once again in NYC all the way from LA from the West to the East Coast since last year!

[akrs]

This is the only year I wouldn't upgrade lol

[nickviet]

Hopefully those folks waiting in line are not yearly upgraders 😂

[Dmindthinker]

What did they Tim was going to say. Naw it was horrible. lol

[danielbardella]

Still keeping my iPhone SE 2nd gen. I don't need to upgrade every year

[MackMittenzTV]
