The iPhone 17 Pro DRAMA | Genius Bar #201

If you guys both lived in Los Angeles you could join up as a team and call yourselves the Los Angeles Leakers.

Sam looks like he is locked up in a psych ward with that background

I was listening to the episode and I thought yr ad name was “stiff d**ks”. lol, boy was I wrong.

I would believe this design more, if it had an Apple Watch style screen on the right hand side for notifications when the phones is lay on the glass. The design looks like it has no purpose as it is.

Maybe Tim is aligning with Trump more now because the psychopathic far left don’t have as much power to carry opinions anymore. So he’s safe so be more open with his beliefs

It’s hard to be logical when you believe Trump is the devil. It’s like you can’t imagine a reality where Tim Cook doesn’t hate him or something

Im thinking for the new ai siri they need to put 12 or 16gb of ram in the phones. Like seriously spend the extra 20 bucks for double the memory, it's not hard to do.

Just so you know I quit listening to the vergecast because i look forward to this podcast now

No one should be mad when your guys criticize apple, especially Siri. If you have a crying baby or even just another human talking in the same room it never knows what to do. Trying to get it to play the built-in ambient sounds on a HomePod are nearly impossible based on wording. If you try to activate her in your house, you have absolutely zero idea if it’s actually going to happen on your watch, iPhone, the iPad in the other room, or one of the HomePods in the house … might even be the one upstairs. Even in the car listening to a podcast if they say SIRI, it pauses the podcast and activates. This has happened with four different podcasts all of with people who sound nothing like me. They need to start getting Siri to a more than borderline functional implementation!

It’s going to be the SE 4th gen

It’s going to be the new Magic Mouse with usb c charging port on the front 🎉

The 16e will probably be 100% made in India. Severing China and thus the hype they are trying to build.

maybe it'll be at 9:41am which is the time Steve Jobs announced iPhone 1

mark lwk be posting that cause he don't want this most likely final design again idk no one does bc he wants the iphone to look like a pixel

The 16E would be another stupid marketing name, which would ultimately confuse everyone because the phone looks nothing like a 16. but yeah, it SOUNDS more fresh for at least half a year and would back up the higher price. Because a 499 iPhone SE would be too good.

I hope Apple switches back to more senses as a Tec company when TC will leave.

I think that sam's renders are also true but with it flush at the top makes sense if the Pro Max gets a smaller Dynamic Island, which makes me think the line looks like this: iPhone 17, 17 Air, 17 Pro, 17 Ultra.

This was good. Personality info of hosts updated* beep beep boop.

Love these two

I can't believe i am writing this, as someone who is very happy to be critical of apple, but based on the rumoured specs i was genuinely thinking that $499 was looking like amazing value for the SE.

The only notable sacrifices over the iphone 15 is 1 less camera and an untested modem, and jt even has more RAM than the 15. The 16 added the button which is irrelevant to 99% people and the dynamic island is something you can go without.

If the battery lasts a day an SE at $499 would be an easy recommend to so many non-tech people.

I'd be worried about the size of the battery of the SE phone

i’m gonna say it , nowadays for ios, Apple SUCK, i bought a 15 pro because it should have the new siri since months, but nothing. Otherwise i would have bought a regular 15 or another brand

What sucks about this pod now even after Andrew called yall out yall just double down… these guys are like Apple intelligence on the Mac mini but Mac mini is amazing… Apple intelligence on the iPhone but the phone is shit.. why.. oh because of Apple intelligence yall are so painful to listen to how can ya be this dumb about this

When Tim Cook didn’t answer Zuck’s very public criticism of how they are not innovative and still running off the success of Steve Job’s iPhone, that told me everything I needed to know, unless Tim is going to answer Zuck’s criticisms with some mind blowing innovation and tech, I won’t be impressed with anything they announce unless it’s beyond great. Who can make apple great again?

The ship sticks ad was very convincing. I almost believed you guys play golf and use ship sticks 😂

this is my first year skipping an iphone i hope the 17 pro or air is something exciting

The jingle screams new AirTag but that’s not a “new member”. I’d think new home hub.

Feels like home here ❤️.

Yeah, I do skip the guest episodes, I don't know why I just do... LOL MyBad Boiz!

It does NOT look fake to me

I don't get it how does E for Economy sound less cheap than SE for special edition....???

actually the render for iphone 17 with 3 cameras and big module at the top looks so ridiculous and ugly, i refuse to believe this will be the new look!!

I hope this is not the next iPhone design becouse it will be the ugliest iPhone design Apple ever created. Such a turn off design and one more reason to switch to Samsung. Not mentioning the obsolete software Apple put in those phones. I am 16 pro max user and it's total shame for such respected company. disaster after disaster every year.

499$ final stand

Maybe iPhone 16R?

So Sam complains this week about Vision Pro being heavy again and new Siri not being out because he doesn’t use the other features Jon attempted to defend it 😂😂😂 basic the second half

I think the bar on the air will allow room for the Face ID array, since the rest of the device would otherwise be too thin for it.

I love your negativity on this podcast. It mirrors long-time Apple fan sentiments. We love the company but feel abused by it. Keep it up!

Why can’t phone’s back side sit flush with the camera anymore… just make the phone thicker. You can fit a bigger battery in it then…

I’ve been saying this for over 6 months that the iPhone SE4 or iPhone 16E is going to cost US$550

It's going to get more and more difficult to come up with interesting looks on the iPhone after so many generations of phones.

Love the episode, but I just don’t agree with the iPhone 16 hate. I love mine, and it has nothing to do with Apple intelligence. Why does that matter so much to you guys?

you're always wrong remember last time when you were wrong about iPhone 14 Pro? APPLE WATCH FLAT SIDES?

Emergency episode required

The good news is Belkin eventually gave us the Boost 3 in 1 charging stand with magsafe which has to be one of my favorite accessories ever and probably better than what airpower would have been anyway.

I have full faith in Jon's Transparency & Honesty. Between Genius Bar, FPT and his Recycling Bin Podcast; he's been very honest and transparent.

shave the eyebrows ....no matter what
....it's just fun

...didn't u say u will shave them if the design is pixel like
