Hey, Writing a topic and I'd like to hear some of your opinions on the new Apple iPhone 7 and AirPods.

The new iPhone 7: http://www.apple.com/iphone-7/
Personally, I don't like iPhones (I'm an Android guy and I'd prefer the Note 7 instead) - The iPhone 7 makes no sense to me for a few reasons, as if I was using a high end pair of headphones I'd probably be carrying around a DAC with me anyways.
- They have the new A10 "Fusion" processor that is 64 bit 4 core processor and apparently "2 x faster than the iPhone 6"

The new AirPods (Apple EarPods revamped to Wireless) - http://www.apple.com/airpods/
Image

They are wireless in ears that come with a charging case - Specs below:
- AirPods last for 4 hours listening (Without being recharged)
- They will automatically play when inserted into your ears by the use of their IR sensors inside of the AirPods
- Tapping on an AirPod twice on the top part of it will activate Siri and allow for voice commands, they include microphones on each of them.

I have to admit, Apple nailed the video and it was really well made but what can we expect from a multi-billion dollar company.

I can't knock Apple with their WWDC's as they are always entertaining and well scripted, together making it entertaining and having you watch them.

I'll update this if anything else gets added :)
Feel free to share your opinions here with us all!

I've watched it and maybe I'll get the new  Watch or a new iPhone, yet to decide about that.
Also, this ain't the WWDC mate.

I find the AirPods and the iPhone 7 a social experiment. I feel like apple are going to turn round at the end and be like "It's OK guys, we were just seeing if our followers are going to purchase our stuff still even if we remove functionality from the devices."

What part of the functionality is removed?
