Overall this event was pretty mid imo 🥱

Beginning to feel like this industry is stagnating. Just doing enough to appease the stockholders and pump the stock.

Yup. See them parroting USB C as if some kind of new shit. Lmao, Type C has been on Android for years and Android Manufacturers have long stopped it as some Marketing feature.

Would you rather they let it remain a surprise until you unbox the phone?

I watched the keynote and they didn’t hype it up anymore than “hey look, now there’s USB-C”. They never claimed it was new shit other than it being new to the product line.

Apple deserves criticism but all this USB-C hate is weird to me. This time last year people were pissed about the iPhone not having USB-C, now there’s a problem because they do.
