New iPhone and AirPod pros. No one cares anymore?

  • Nope. I’m still rockin my SE2 and my whatever kind of airpod pros i have. My coworker did say he noticed an improvement with the noise cancellation on the new airpods. (We work in manufacturing environment).

  • The 17 looks nice, but I'm good with my current phone and my iPad. :)

  • I don’t know about anyone else, but no, I don’t care in the least.

  • Yeah, new iPhones look sexy, but too rich for my blood.

    I'll continue using iPad and don't see that changing, but my current iPhone will likely be my last.

  • About 4 generations behind is about where my budget places me. And even then, I'm looking for a really good bargain.

    Same. If the iPhone 17 had Apple Pencil capabilities, maybe I'd consider it. But my S25 Ultra has an S-Pen, and I have Cubasis and FLSM on it so I can start ideas on my Android and port it over to my iPad. Works well.

  • Genuinely didn’t know they had been released until I saw this post….what number are they up to?

  • Guess the commotion will start on the 15th when iOS26 is officially released. I wouldn't mind one of the new ones, looks sexy enough but if I had that kind of money (I'm far from that) I'd rather invest in a new mini.

    Damn. Just saw yesterday’s headlines. Sorry about that.

  • I used to follow the keynotes religiously and crave the new tech, but there’s nothing fun anymore. The thin iPhone is just a test for the foldable, and let’s be honest no one was clamoring for a thinner phone. The rest is just so much meh. I’ll get a mini 7 when the 8 comes out, just for music, my android phone cost 250 euros new and does literally everything I need a phone to do. It even takes great photos with gcam installed. As far as iOS 26 is concerned I can confirm the beta is sucking the battery like nobody’s business, hope that will change with the public release.

    Better save your money.

  • My AirPod pro first gens don’t work properly anymore so I’ll pick up the new ones.

  • I'm happy with my iPhone 16 and look forward to both iOS26 & iPadOS26, my current Mac Mini won't be able to run macOS Tahoe though...

  • The new thin iPhone looks a lot like the old iPhone 6 I still have around here somewhere.

    I’ve used Apple stuff for years and years, but as my devices die I won’t be replacing any of them. Between the AI, the steady worsening of the OSes, the ongoing lack of repairability, and Tim Cook’s support of Trump, I’m out.

    I’ve been using Linux with KDE on an old (2012 maybe) MacBook Air and it’s a breath of fresh air. Lovely, consistent UI, super customizable, and keeps getting updated to be better, not worse.

    The only thing keeping me on macOS is Ableton, but I will probably just keep my current Mac running just for that whenever I switch to a Framework in the future.

  • All valid criticisms in my view, but also worrying. This iOS music scene already feels a bit like it's dying. Certainly if YouTube viewing figures are anything to go by, the scene is just nowhere near as healthy as it was even a few years ago.

  • Sigh, I still wish that Apple would put some R&D cash into developing a music production-focused version of AirPods where latency is minimised to the greatest extent possible.

  • Currently got a 16 Pro Max as a phone and won’t be replacing it until Jan 2027 when hopefully I’ll get an 18 Pro Max.
    As for the range of phones released, the AIR looks good but 💯% it’s going to be victim of being bent and crushed from being in people’s back pockets.

    Not dying, just maturing. I currently don’t need any new devices or any new apps to make the music I want to be making. We already have so many great instruments and versatile production tools at our fingertips.

    Obviously that doesn’t mean I’m not susceptible to having my head turned…

    Fair point yes, tho I do think that factors like removal of the headphone jack have also made the platform less appealing than it was 5 or 10 years ago

    100%, it's so much more of a faff.

    Agreed having taken a break from using iPad for music for a couple of years and coming back at the the beginning of the year it's been an eye opener how little the landscape has changed, tbh I'm already a bit jaded by it and contemplating just cutting my losses and giving up on it..

    What would u want to change? For me, we need more apps that make use of the touchscreen. Price aside, that's the only really significant advantage of making music on an iPad versus a laptop, but so few devs make apps that utilize that lovely touchscreen. The design paradigm is still mostly based on hardware or mouse-controlled software.

  • AirPods Pro 3 doing live translation is pretty cool, though that seems more like a software thing rather than a need for new hardware.

    In terms of landscape of iOS music - is health measured by new apps? What about musical output?

  • @Gavinski You have to consider the pandemic too

    The pandemic caused a massive spike in interest, sure. But still, look at the views on pre pandemic videos on channels like Doug and Jakob's. There were more far more iOS YouTubers then but there was also more interest and videos got more views. Maybe some devs who've been around a while could comment on this, but it really does seem there's less interest now than ten years ago. Then websites like Sound on Sound were more likely to review iOS apps, now that's extremely rare. Apple's dropping of the affiliate program also played a role here too, as I've said many times

  • I blame looping. Especially Frippertronics style. That’s when everything started to decay.

    I think overall the whole iOS music environment feels a bit stale, like there's a lack of innovation or risk taking, every other app release seems to be a new delay or reverb or whatever is fashionable at the time, for me I just can't get excited about stuff like that, I mean how many reverbs or delays or lofi effects do you really need.. I don't know, I'm just a hobbyist, I tool around in my home studio, with Ableton and iPads etc.. what do I know? 😅

  • Personally I've already got more than enough apps to last for a lifetime...
    ...most of the 'new stuff' that is dropping is more of the same old in new shiny outfits trying to catch the attention of the remaining app-collectors without adding anything truly fresh to the toolbox...

    The hardware has also gotten good enough that there's no real reason for the yearly update cycle other than vanity to get the latest and greatest :sunglasses:

  • Yes I agree. There are very few releases that really excite me now.
