- Hey guys, it's Justine
and the 2021 Apple event just ended.
And of course there's a bunch of new and awesome updates.
But first I got a chance to chat with Tim cook
right after the event ended
so I'm so excited for you guys to check that out.
I'll put a link in the description
if you want to watch that after this video.
We talked about the new cinematic mode
in the iPhone 13, the new iPad,
the new Apple Watch 7, Apple Fitness+,
honestly, this was such a dream come true,
so I'm still so excited.
- Hi.
- Hello.
- How are you?
- I'm doing well. How are you?
- Really good, good to see you again.
- Oh my gosh, you too.
Thanks so much for joining this fun little interview
here right after the event.
Okay, so first off, let's actually talk
about the event itself.
If you guys watched it, this kind of felt
like a pared down version of some of the last Apple events,
because the last ones have been
like these crazy over the top elaborate productions,
which is amazing, but this one felt a little
bit more like the old school live events
that we're used to, like the ones
that were actually live and onstage.
I did really hope that one day
we can return to Apple campus again,
because it was seriously so much fun
getting a chance to actually go there
and really experiencing all of that in person.
I also loved all of the amazing fly throughs
that they did through California,
even though I live here, just kind
of getting that overview was really awesome.
Now, let's get into the actual announcements.
They started off by giving us a preview
of Apple TV+, their fall lineup of TV shows.
Now I'm so excited about The Morning Show,
the second season, because the first season was honestly,
one of my most favorite shows ever.
Jon Stewart is also coming back to TV,
I think that's something that a lot
of people were not expecting, so that's super exciting.
And they also announced updates to the iPad
and a huge update to the iPad Mini.
We also got to look at the new Apple Watch Series 7,
it has an all new design, well,
I guess like not all entirely new,
it's kind of like an updated refresh.
There's also some updates to Fitness+,
and of course the brand new iPhone 13,
iPhone 13 Mini, iPhone 13 Pro, and iPhone 13 Pro Max,
Can we get a little round of applause here?
Just let's hear it, let's hear it for the iPhones.
(cheering)
- Boy, do I really hope Tyler puts in a sound effect here
or everything I'm doing right now is just weird.
So they updated the iPad,
it's got the same design that we're used to,
but now with way better performance,
thanks to the A13 Bionic Chip.
Can we get another round of applause for A13,
let's hear it. (cheering)
You'll have all day battery life
and it has a new 12 megapixel ultra wide front camera
with center stage for video calls.
And now it also supports other accessories
like the smart keyboard and the first gen Apple Pencil
and it starts at only 329.
And what I'm really excited about though,
as I'd mentioned at the beginning of this video
is the updates to the iPad Mini,
but it's been awhile since this thing
actually got a real refresh,
but honestly this seems like so much more than a refresh.
Like this seems like a whole new iPad.
It has Apple's new Liquid Retina Display
and now with some really thin bezels,
just like the iPad Air and iPad Pro, which is so nice,
especially on such a small device like this.
It's also getting a massive boost in performance,
there's upgrades for the camera
on the front and back, USB-C connectivity.
Hold up a second!
Did you guys hear that correctly? Yes.
The iPad mini has USB-C, it also,
my friends, has touch ID on the power button.
These are the things that I want in my iPhone so badly.
This is actually pretty exciting
if you kind of think about it
because this is slowly integrating us
into maybe iPhone 14 either not having a port at all,
or it'll finally be USB-C powered.
So the iPad Mini does come in for new colors,
there's a pink, a Starlight, a purple, and a space gray.
There's also some new folio covers to match
and this little thing now supports
the second gen Apple Pencil, which is amazing.
They've packed so much into this little iPad,
including 5g support, and the price
is going to be starting at 499.
I actually cannot wait to test out the iPad mini,
just because the form factor is so small,
but yet it's like a larger iPhone,
but I feel like it is something
that has been desperately needing an upgrade,
so I'm so excited to try it out.
Will I get the pink one? Well yeah, I mean, of course,
like, was that even a question?
Like what?
So next up is the Apple Watch Series 7.
You guys know that aside from my love
and obsession for my iPhone,
the Apple Watch is probably one of my favorite products,
not just an Apple product, but product in general.
I love this thing so much.
It has honestly really kind of changed my life
in the way that I approach fitness,
because it's really helped me
quantify my fitness and actually see changes
as I'm progressing through my fitness.
So I'm always very excited to see
what the next version is going to bring.
This one is more focusing on some design upgrades.
It has an always on retina display
with 20% more screen area than the Series 6.
It's got a thinner border, which is going to allow
for some really awesome UI changes
to give you more space for content on the watch face.
There's even going to be a full keyboard
in the Apple Watch now.
Like, just think about that,
you're gonna have a full keyboard right here on your wrist.
In addition to the design updates,
there's also new support for cycling
and bike fall detection.
I actually started riding a bike
a lot more over the last few years,
so I'm very excited to test this out.
It's got some enhanced dust and water resistance now
and stronger crack resistant front crystal.
It comes in some new aluminum case finishes,
there's a midnight, starlight, a green,
a new blue, and a product red.
Pricing is starting at 399 and will ship in the fall.
I have a question.
When is fall? Like, is this early fall?
Like when is the first day of fall is?
Is this like, what are we talking here?
Are we talking like spooky season?
When is fall?
Fall begins on September 22nd and ends December 20th.
Like, are we talking early fall?
(laughing)
So along with the new Apple Watch,
we also got some really fun updates to Apple Fitness+,
and I am such a huge fan of Apple Fitness+,
so this is really great.
They've got some new workouts for Pilates and mindfulness,
so you'll be able to do the meditation classes
as audio only on your Apple Watch,
which is really nice if you don't want to have your iPad
or have some sort of distraction,
you can just listen to the audio right on your wrist.
There's also something new called Workout Programs.
Basically these programs are designed
to get you ready for a specific activity.
The example they showed was winter sports and skiing,
but I can imagine that these programs
can be for people trading like a marathon
or maybe like some bike races,
or maybe even something like sports specific,
like some workouts to enhance my jujitsu
or maybe to enhance my lightsaber training perhaps,
I don't know, it's just a thought.
The other thing that they announced is actually really cool.
This is a new group fitness workout feature,
and it's powered by Share Play.
So you and your friends can basically do workouts
and hang out together.
You can have up to 32 people in a group.
And honestly, like I'm really hoping
that I can get 32 of my tech YouTuber friends
to do a group fitness class together.
But I'm curious, like who would you want to see?
And what class would you like us to do?
Leave it in the comments below.
And finally, of course, Apple has announced
the brand new iPhone 13, 13 Mini, 13 Pro, and 13 Pro Max.
So the iPhone 13 and the iPhone 13 Mini
is going to have a new sleek design
with some flat edges and Apple's Super Retina XDR display.
And they come in five new colors.
We've got the pink, blue, midnight,
starlight, and the product red.
Now I do kind of wish that the pink
was like a super hot pink color,
but this is something that I've been waiting for
for a really, really long time.
Like I wanted a pink iPhone and here it is,
pink, pink iPhone.
So both the 13 and the 13 Mini
share the same dual camera system
with a new wide camera and this new feature
called cinematic mode.
They showed this short film that was shot
entirely in this mode and it was so cool
because it basically lets you rack focus,
track subjects with focus,
and it will automatically detect faces
using algorithms and machine learning.
It's actually really, really cool.
You guys know that I love my iPhone accessories.
There are some new MagSafe cases in matching colors
and there's now even a new MagSafe
leather wallet with built-in FindMy.
I recently had my wallet stolen.
And it's funny though, because you would think
that Justine, who was so excited about these Air Tags
would have had an Air Tag in her wallet
or even in her bag that was taken.
Did she? No, she did not.
The crazy thing is I was actually using a backpack
that I don't normally use
because it was one that I really didn't care about as much
because I was hiking and I just thought,
for whatever reason, let's just throw that
in the backseat, don't care,
It was stolen.
Its also kind of funny
cause I actually tweeted something
about losing my Air Pods as well
and I thought it'd be really cool
if the new AirPods would have FindMy integrated into them.
But even though we didn't get a new AirPods at this event,
the FindMy wallets will suffice,
I'm actually pretty excited about that.
So the iPhone 13 Pro and the 13 Pro Max
also got some incredible upgrades,
especially in the display and the camera system.
They have an all new Super Retina XDR display
with pro motion, enabling adaptive refresh rate
up to 120 Hertz.
Now I love this so much on the iPad,
so I'm so happy that Apple is finally bringing
120 Hertz pro motion to their phones.
And what's great is they both
have identical camera features now.
All three rear cameras have gotten huge upgrades.
In addition to the cinematic mode we already talked about
the ultra wide camera can now do macro photos.
The zoom lens is now upgraded to a three X telephoto
as opposed to the 2.5 on the iPhone 12 Pro Max.
Oh, and this is also super exciting,
they said that later on,
we're going to be able to capture and edit video
in progress, this is awesome,
especially if you're a final cut editor.
That is something that we love.
Speaking of editing and shooting a lot of content,
the new 13 Pro phones will have storage
options of up to one terabyte.
Yeah, when they announced this, I was like,
"Yes, finally."
I've actually filled up the storage
in my 512 gig phone, so this is honestly something
that I was looking forward to.
I do store a lot of content in the Cloud,
but the thing is when I'm shooting some of these 4k videos
and then editing them down,
a lot of times I'm airdropping them
from my computer, like the final edited piece, to my phone
and a lot of times these are really big files,
so it's really great to be able
to have that additional storage
just in case you need it.
There's seriously so much to talk about
in these new phones, so I'm going
to be doing a whole separate video,
digging into all of the specs, all of the new upgrades,
and some of the things that I wish that they had done.
So be sure to keep an eye out for that
and it might actually already be out.
So check the link in the description
and see if there's a link there.
