FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:00

right so the Apple event has just

0:02

happened and I'm 99.9 sure apple is

0:05

going to probably strike the live stream

0:07

I did covering the event so instead of

0:09

showing any kind of photos or whatever

0:11

I'm just gonna give you my opinion as

0:13

basically an apple nut I'm also an apple

0:16

shareholder and I run an actively

0:18

managed ETF that has some apple exposure

0:21

in it in this video I'm going to talk to

0:23

you about my thoughts about am I going

0:25

to get the latest iPhone keep in mind

0:26

I've gotten every single iPhone since

0:29

launch since launch iPhone 1 iPhone 3

0:32

you name it I use Apple iPads Apple

0:34

computers laptops everything I also use

0:37

PC and Android though so am I going to

0:39

get the latest of foam am I going to

0:42

trim the stock let's talk about all of

0:44

that some of the two biggest things that

0:47

came out of this event in my opinion for

0:49

me personally were the reiteration that

0:52

the Apple Vision Pro is expected to ship

0:54

early next year that's a big deal and a

0:58

second big deal which actually should

1:01

help Apple's Cloud Division and their

1:04

server revenues for cloud plus which is

1:06

one of the biggest margin areas for

1:10

Apple this is where they really grow

1:12

their margin is in the Apple services

1:14

division Cloud plus they finally

1:18

expanded the storage you can have

1:19

instead of being stuck with up to two

1:22

GBS of storage which you can double if

1:25

you end up getting sort of like the

1:26

personal on the other I don't know there

1:27

are two versions you can get you can I

1:29

kind of expand it and double it you can

1:30

finally go from 2g or two TB of storage

1:34

TV what did I write down we're going

1:36

from two hold on a second obviously

1:38

terabytes but you're going from two to

1:40

six to 12 TBS of storage terabytes of

1:43

storage this is great finally you can

1:45

pay for more storage which when you're

1:47

recording footage at uh 4K or even 1080p

1:51

on your iPhone you clog that up really

1:54

fast over the years so I'm really happy

1:56

to see this I'm tired of having to go

1:58

back and having to delete videos because

1:59

my iCloud storage is full so this is

2:01

actually a great uh update those are two

2:04

fantastic things that I'm excited about

2:06

now I'm also an apple uh watch Ultra

2:10

owner now what I'm going to tell you

2:12

about this Apple watch Ultra number one

2:14

uh is my opinion on the one and I'm

2:16

gonna tell you about the number two and

2:17

I'll tell you if I'm gonna get a new one

2:19

so I personally use the action button on

2:23

the Apple watch Ultra as a flashlight

2:25

which I think is really great for my

2:27

family I don't love it so much even

2:29

though I'm a runner and I love wearing

2:31

this running I don't use the action

2:33

button that much for turning that on I

2:34

use it for the flashlight option really

2:37

functional for the middle of the night

2:38

trying to find something beats finding

2:40

my phone really enjoy that is it worth

2:42

having the action button just for that

2:43

probably not the ultra has always been

2:46

great though for battery life I've had

2:49

almost every single watch that Apple's

2:52

come out with and I'll tell you almost

2:54

all of these watches just die they don't

2:58

last they suck I've had them metal bands

3:00

I've had all the different bands they've

3:02

got the old ones suck the ultra actually

3:04

lasts a good day and a half which is

3:06

nice I could skip a day of charging it

3:08

functional this is good so what do we

3:10

have in terms of the new series nine and

3:13

then in terms of the ultra what do we

3:15

have well a lot of a hoopla about the S9

3:19

sip that's called a system in a package

3:21

yep 60 more transistors 30 faster GPU

3:25

which basically just makes stuff

3:26

smoother the big announcement here on

3:29

the watch though and this pisses me off

3:31

because when I go on runs I try to use

3:33

Siri all the time and I'm running and

3:36

I'm like I got an 800 computer on my

3:38

wrist and Siri doesn't freaking work

3:40

sure you're not available I'm like what

3:42

is this trash finally the new watches

3:46

will have Siri processed on the watch no

3:50

longer needing to connect to the cloud

3:52

first thank God they're also announcing

3:55

about 25 percent more accurate Siri I

3:58

highly doubt that Siri and I we still

3:59

have our disputes okay but processing it

4:03

on the watch is amazing that is good

4:05

they need to do that on all devices I'm

4:07

tired of Siri having the process in the

4:09

cloud uh obviously the sort of

4:11

revolutionary announcement on the watch

4:14

is this idea of double tap but you have

4:16

to ask yourself how much you actually

4:17

answer phone calls on your watch or how

4:20

functional that's really going to be for

4:22

you is it worth upgrading to the next

4:24

phone or sorry to the next watch

4:26

personally I don't know how much I'm

4:28

going to use double tap I do think it's

4:29

Innovative in that there's no camera on

4:32

the watch right so they can't see your

4:33

wrist I saw some comments from people

4:35

wondering oh can somebody else go like

4:37

this near you and then control your

4:39

watch no it's it's really measuring the

4:42

movement in your wrist via the

4:45

accelerometer that's in the device and

4:47

then you know the movement of your

4:49

muscles in your wrist so it's not like

4:51

there's a camera watching your

4:52

fingertips doing this but it is a cool

4:55

new smart gesture I like the cover the

4:58

silence and notification or phone own

5:00

Double Tap maybe to sleep or pause play

5:02

music that's functional I like that

5:05

there are a lot of times I find myself

5:07

kind of wishing I could control it with

5:09

just one hand not having to put down a

5:10

cup of coffee or whatever I do think

5:12

that's functional is it worth upgrading

5:14

though I'll let you know at the end if

5:17

it's worth it for me uh to upgrade uh to

5:20

the new watch okay that double tap

5:22

feature is on both the series nine and

5:26

the ultra now the ultra is also getting

5:29

the S9 sip on device Siri 3 000 nits of

5:33

display when I'm running in the sun I

5:35

will say sometimes I can't see the

5:37

screen although when I'm running in the

5:39

sun you gotta ask yourself how much do

5:41

you really need to see the screen I

5:42

don't know there are cases you want to

5:44

see it right this is the point you gotta

5:45

watch but anyway the biggest thing of

5:48

the new Ultra 2 was that the modular

5:51

device which is actually really

5:52

entertaining in my opinion I don't know

5:54

if I'm gonna be able to get my um watch

5:56

to focus in on this but I'll try it but

5:58

what's really entertaining attaining so

6:00

I actually use the uh the modular

6:04

display as well you can see it right

6:06

here I use the modular display and one

6:09

of the things that I like about the

6:10

modular display is I've got so many

6:11

different functions on it so I usually

6:13

have it set for the UV indicator because

6:15

I do go on runs and I like to know when

6:17

do I have to put sunscreen on uh and a

6:19

stopwatch for my kids so I set it to

6:21

like a five minute countdown I'm like

6:23

that's it you're a timeout for five

6:24

minutes I push a button gray and I put

6:26

them in timeout or I'm like hey you know

6:28

how fast can you change I'll time you

6:30

the kids really get excited about that I

6:31

like to see the calendar obviously uh

6:34

the you know what what my next event is

6:36

so the modular display is really

6:37

functional for me one of the new

6:39

upgrades that they're talking about in

6:41

the modular display is this idea that

6:43

you could use the outside frame of the

6:45

modular display to show depth I don't

6:48

care about I don't go diving altitude I

6:50

fly around I got a plane but I honestly

6:53

don't care what altitude I'm at that's

6:54

not my job I ain't the pilot uh and then

6:57

uh the seconds thing

6:59

is like minutely interesting only

7:03

because I have this thing with my son

7:04

where he likes to celebrate my

7:06

eight-year-old likes to celebrate when

7:07

it's exactly 12 or exactly one and so

7:10

we'll watch the seconds together but the

7:12

modular display actually already has

7:14

that in the little circular option where

7:17

it shows you the little ticks for time

7:18

so frankly that's like a software change

7:21

not that big of a change battery life

7:23

improvements they're like hey look we're

7:25

giving you all this new performance with

7:27

the same battery life as last time so

7:30

it's like wait a minute so I get on

7:33

Device Siri and I get the tap tap is

7:37

that going to be worth eight hundred

7:39

dollars for a new Ultra we'll answer

7:42

that at the end of the video okay then

7:44

iPhone 15. okay I lost it when they said

7:48

the iPhone 15 has an all new design

7:50

Marquez Brownlee astutely tweeted and

7:54

said uh the lady literally said that

7:56

with a straight face face palm

7:58

essentially right it's it's ridiculous

8:00

they're bringing Dynamic Island to the

8:02

iPhone 15 so far only the pro had that

8:05

in the 14 version same 48 megapixel uh

8:09

camera that was in the iPhone 14 pro

8:11

will go to the iPhone 4 15 standard uh

8:15

this Ultra wideband technology I want to

8:18

be clear what we did not hear at all on

8:22

this event was anything about new 5G

8:25

they did not mention 5G once which means

8:30

it's probably the same Qualcomm 5G modem

8:33

they've been using personally a little

8:35

pissed about that like for me fast

8:38

internet speed is everything that's a

8:40

big selling point for me to get a new

8:42

phone the iPhone 14 Hands Down iPhone 14

8:45

on T-Mobile has by far the fastest

8:50

internet I have ever seen I and you know

8:54

this if you subscribe to my channel and

8:55

you see me cover breaking news stories

8:57

or whatever I run around with two phones

9:00

and an Android so I actually have three

9:02

phones the reason for that is I have one

9:04

service I have the Google find service

9:06

on my Android I have uh T-Mobile on this

9:11

phone and then I actually have I also

9:13

have mint on this one but those are the

9:14

same bands this is the 14 and then I

9:16

have Verizon and a t on this in case you

9:19

don't know on the iPhone this is the

9:20

iPhone 13. even on the iPhone 13 you can

9:24

get two uh e-sims so you can have two

9:27

different services and you can actually

9:29

change the services between the two I

9:32

don't have the best service in my office

9:34

here but look at that top you see those

9:36

two bands right there Verizon and ATT I

9:40

can actually switch between the two this

9:42

is the iPhone 13. I don't need a new

9:44

phone to do that and I have the same

9:46

thing over here you'll see if I uh if I

9:48

pull down I mean I don't know it's

9:50

necessary for me to really go through it

9:51

but I will anyway because some people

9:53

find it very interesting so yeah my

9:54

mints on Wi-Fi calling right now but if

9:57

this ends up focusing right here there

9:58

it is you can see Team mobile the next

10:00

one's actually mint uh that's actually

10:03

very useful for me because on the go I

10:05

could go ah ATT sucks here I switch to

10:08

the other e Sim and it makes it really

10:10

useful for me to have fast internet the

10:12

iPhone 14 very fast 5G service way

10:16

better than the 13. now no updates

10:19

though in the 15 on 5G unless I missed

10:22

it zero updates on the 5G now they do

10:25

talk about the ultra wide band now Ultra

10:29

wide band is not to be confused with the

10:32

ultra bands that they have for 5G

10:34

they're talking about the new Ultra

10:36

wideband technology for find my iPhone

10:39

okay this is not that revolutionary in

10:42

that I mean they're suggesting okay

10:44

maybe you could do it from three times

10:45

further away uh and you can navigate to

10:48

to find my friends a little bit better

10:50

but frankly I have the iPhone watch

10:52

Ultra right here and all the time I go

10:55

in here and I do the Ping to find my

10:57

phone

10:59

that's functional do I really need to

11:03

like get get even more accurate with

11:05

where my phone is and upgrade to the

11:07

latest watch on the latest phone to get

11:10

even more Precision that's pretty good

11:12

already the find my already right so

11:15

something to keep in mind again I'm

11:16

gonna I'm gonna tell you am I gonna

11:17

upgrade to these devices and what I

11:19

think about the stock in just a moment

11:20

going through the rest of this you know

11:22

initially I thought it was impressive

11:24

that they were including the satellite

11:26

service for free for two years but

11:27

that's actually also true on the iPhone

11:29

14 so I'm sorry when I said that in the

11:32

live stream I was wrong about that but

11:33

I've corrected that it's actually not

11:35

impressive because it's the same thing

11:36

as they've done previously now the USBC

11:39

cable this is obviously forced by the

11:42

European Union which the apple apple

11:44

will obviously turn this into hey we're

11:46

doing USBC so we can give you external

11:49

storage capabilities so you can film

11:51

with your iPhone and store to an

11:53

external you know fast solid state drive

11:56

that's cool because then I could film

11:57

and if I'm on a tripod and hand it to an

12:00

editor I'll tell you if I actually think

12:02

I'm going to end up using that so I'm

12:04

going to write a little note here and

12:06

tell you USBC storage I'll give you my

12:09

answer on that it is cool though when

12:10

you get that gigabit that 10 gigabits

12:13

worth of transfer speed now I will tell

12:15

you if I film on the iPhone and I do not

12:19

let it just store in iCloud and then it

12:22

takes me like a week or whatever to go

12:24

to it when I have to re-download the

12:25

files if I film something and then if I

12:28

same day airdrop that content 1080p 4K

12:31

whatever to an editor or somebody else

12:34

on my team airdrop is fast when it works

12:37

there are times it's frustrating and

12:40

it's not connecting you got to reboot

12:41

stuff whatever that's the way it is and

12:43

so there will be some benefit to these

12:45

faster transfer speeds via USBC

12:48

capability and it's nice to have a

12:50

universal charger via USBC you know I

12:52

I'm a big iPad junkie you all know that

12:55

I'm a big fan of the iPad the iPad Pros

12:57

are the best I know this is not a pro

12:59

radio here this is my medium sized iPad

13:01

I've got the iPad tiny honestly every

13:03

single iPad I have I do really enjoy I'm

13:07

an iPad not I think they are incredible

13:09

for reading for studying that's probably

13:12

the most uh note taking obviously for

13:14

presenting things that's useful uh but

13:16

in terms of reading PDFs and annotating

13:18

them Godly and I do that all day long

13:20

right okay so uh but but there was no

13:23

iPhone no iPad news in this but anyway

13:25

it's nice to have the same charging uh

13:27

Port but I'll tell you where that's a

13:29

pisser I have gone through and made my

13:31

life really really simple where

13:33

everywhere I sit down or I have a

13:36

charging environment I already have an

13:39

iPhone lightning cable set up and so

13:42

since I use two phones I have the 13 and

13:44

the 14. it doesn't make sense for me to

13:47

potentially leave that lightning

13:48

environment unless I want to go through

13:50

and change out all of those that I have

13:52

for my second phone to USBC right so

13:55

there is some extra cost of if you

13:57

upgrade to the iPhone 15 making sure

14:00

that you're replacing where your

14:02

lightning Chargers are two usbcs I know

14:05

that might sound like nitpicking but

14:07

think about it if you have five

14:09

different spots that you usually have a

14:10

lightning charger that could be your

14:12

office it could be your car it could be

14:14

in your bedroom it could be in your home

14:16

office your work office whatever it is

14:18

right you probably do or you should

14:20

unless your phone's always dead right

14:22

then you need some more Chargers anyway

14:23

but five different spots uh you know

14:26

you're gonna have to get another five

14:27

pack of USBC cables uh they're gonna

14:30

have to have the right wattage for you

14:32

to actually get the real benefits of

14:33

fast charging out of these you're

14:35

probably going to spend somewhere around

14:36

seven bucks at least per cable on these

14:39

you know it's gonna be another 35 bucks

14:40

you got to get the power bricks you're

14:42

probably going to be at 100 bucks in

14:44

cables so just something to keep in mind

14:45

it's another adopt uh thing to adopt or

14:48

spend money on especially if you get the

14:50

official Apple cables well then you're

14:52

probably gonna get ripped off but

14:53

whatever uh again you got to get the

14:55

faster USBC cables I actually have one

14:57

over here I'll tell you this

14:59

I have a

15:01

you know a lot of people don't know

15:02

about this but I have this for example

15:04

this Elgato stream deck right here you

15:06

know it's just a little stream switcher

15:08

that you use for like Tick Tock

15:09

streaming or whatever right you plug it

15:11

in if you plug this in with a regular

15:13

USBC cable it actually won't function

15:15

you need to have a USB uh C uh a c cable

15:21

that supports the wattage that you need

15:23

for fast charging and so when and if you

15:26

go look at USBC cables make sure you're

15:29

evaluating what wattage you actually

15:30

need to go through the cable because not

15:33

all USBC cables are created equal and

15:36

they won't actually give you the the

15:38

proper data and power flow that you

15:41

might expect from C so there's a lot to

15:43

learn when it comes to C and there's

15:45

gonna be some adoption curve and money

15:46

spending for USBC something to keep in

15:49

mind now as far as the iPhone 15 Pro

15:51

thinner bezel titanium frame toughest

15:54

glass bro listen I have been an iPhone

15:56

dude since the iPhone 1 and every single

16:01

single year they tell me the glass is

16:04

going to get stronger and stronger and

16:06

stronger and almost every single year

16:08

this is what happens to my glass okay

16:10

almost every single year I'm sick and

16:13

tired of it's stronger glass and then

16:18

it's a rep uh I will say uh the I do

16:22

like shout out to Pelican hashtag not

16:24

trying to do this live it has two spots

17:16

it's got obviously a spot where you

17:18

could slide in the credit cards and then

17:19

you can slide some money under here uh

17:22

what I actually do when my second one is

17:25

I actually keep a security key in this

17:29

one so if you have a purpose for this at

17:32

work or something like that a little

17:33

security key and then I also keep an

17:35

Apple Air tag which I've labeled custom

17:38

label 1337 in there so I keep that sort

17:41

of in here so I have a security key spot

17:42

and then one for credit cards driver's

17:44

license and uh you know money uh cash

17:48

some cash two dollar bills whatever you

17:49

want to keep so I do find those Pelican

17:52

uh hard cases somewhat useful probably

17:56

one of my favorite Mac uh mag safe

17:59

accessory rather okay that gives you a

18:01

heads up on this now the other thing to

18:03

keep in mind on the announcement iPhone

18:04

phone 15 Pro same sizes a lot of talk

18:09

about obviously about recycled materials

18:11

carbon neutral I'm going to skip that

18:13

that was talked about a lot uh that they

18:15

still have their goal of you know zero

18:17

carbon footprint by 2030 blah blah blah

18:18

okay the one thing that I do like about

18:20

the 15 is the customizable action button

18:24

so right now on the iPhone you have the

18:27

the little switch right here to go from

18:29

uh you know ring to not ring it just

18:32

turns the ringer on and off which is

18:34

annoying because if you are already on

18:36

do not disturb then that ringer button

18:38

doesn't matter now if I turn off do not

18:41

disturb but it's on silent then you

18:44

forget oh I'm not going to get phone

18:46

calls or I'm not going to hear phone

18:47

calls so customizing that action button

18:50

much like the customizability of the

18:52

action button of the ultra watch is

18:55

actually very functional in my opinion

18:57

you being able to customize it to

18:59

Flashlight which is what I use on my

19:01

ultra voice memo brilliant quickly

19:04

hitting one one button and going to

19:06

voice memo brilliant move right there

19:08

launching the camera

19:10

I already I mean you already kind of

19:12

have the launch camera button right here

19:14

it's not that hard to launch the camera

19:15

from here so I don't know how useful

19:17

that that is I'd probably go either

19:19

voice memo or flashlight since I have

19:21

flashlight on my ultra honestly I'd

19:24

probably go voice memo uh like oh hey

19:26

would you mind if I record this really

19:28

quick boom click done right useful or

19:30

you have it changed from your do not

19:32

disturb settings maybe that's where I

19:34

would lean I guess it would depend if

19:36

I'm traveling or what my needs are at

19:37

the time or launching a shortcut or

19:39

accessibility that I do like the iPhone

19:42

15 Pro will have the a17 pro three

19:45

nanometer chip asml and Intel are gonna

19:47

be happy about these things uh a tsmc as

19:50

well asml is the company that

19:51

manufactures the lithography machines

19:54

that bring you down to three nanometers

19:56

Intel is getting the first three

19:58

nanometer manufacturing capability in

20:00

America uh and uh and a tsmc which

20:04

produces a lot of the Apple products uh

20:06

has this as well Machine learning is

20:08

expected to be twice as fast USB 3.0

20:11

transfer speeds fine we talked about

20:13

that we talked about airdrop honestly

20:15

the biggest pitch they gave was they're

20:17

like oh it's four times as fast

20:20

for Ray tracing which is for like video

20:23

games I'm like wait a minute that's not

20:25

actually that great of an upgrade

20:26

probably the bigger upgrades came from

20:29

the camera which you're gonna be at the

20:31

same 48 megapixel camera uh 24

20:33

millimeter lens however I and I it

20:36

wasn't clear if they're just going for a

20:38

a digital Zoom here or if this is going

20:40

to be an optical zoom but they're

20:42

letting you go from the 24 Mega sorry

20:45

the 24 millimeter zoom on the 48

20:48

megapixel lens to 28 and 35 as a focal

20:52

length which is nice for for portraits

20:55

or really just Photography in general I

20:57

believe because this is 48 megapixel

21:00

it's probably just going to be digital

21:02

so this is really a software upgrade to

21:04

get those extra 11 Meg uh millimeters

21:06

which quite frankly if you're shooting

21:08

at 48 megapixels you could just crop

21:10

yourself so I don't actually think that

21:12

was that big of a revolution what was a

21:15

physical Revolution was that the iPhone

21:17

15 Pro Max will let you go from 3x

21:22

optical zoom to 5x optical zoom getting

21:26

you out to 120 millimeters on the max

21:29

that's a big difference for distance

21:31

Shooters but you have to ask yourself is

21:33

that a big difference for everyday users

21:35

so uh now what's my take on this oh and

21:39

then of course we're getting 4K 60 up

21:41

from 30. uh according to the external

21:44

the iCloud Plus update okay we talked

21:46

about that find my via satellite that's

21:48

kind of cool okay good and then we got

21:51

the carbon footprint updates blah blah

21:52

blah blah so

21:54

the iPhone this this is a big one okay

21:57

am I going to get the new iPhone the new

21:59

watch my bottom line thoughts on whom

22:02

this is all functional for okay first I

22:05

want to be crystal clear

22:08

yes I have had every single freaking

22:12

iPhone since launch I've never skipped

22:15

an iPhone launch in my career I walk

22:17

around with two iPhones in my pockets I

22:20

got an Android as well but these are my

22:21

daily Runners the airdrop NFC uh

22:25

connections the the functionality

22:26

between the iPhones and the different or

22:28

the iPads and the different laptops is

22:31

fantastic okay hands down these are

22:33

fantastic products now

22:36

before I say if I'm gonna get this

22:37

iPhone 15 you gotta ask yourself for

22:40

whom is the iPhone 15 very useful well

22:43

probably for somebody who's on an older

22:45

model who's been waiting to upgrade

22:47

right fantastic if you're on an older

22:49

model you're waiting to upgrade to the

22:51

latest and greatest maybe now is that

22:53

refresh cycle time for you individually

22:55

is there a niche group a photographer

22:59

who is going to want more stabilized

23:02

telephoto photography yes

23:04

is that going to be 99 of the iPhone

23:08

user base absolutely not is 99 of the

23:12

iPhone user base going to care that your

23:15

24 millimeter lens can go to 28 or 35.

23:19

no so there's a niche audience here in

23:23

studio do I really think professional

23:25

photographers are going to put the

23:26

iPhone on an in-studio tripod no do I

23:30

think that some YouTubers who want to

23:34

use the iPhone in studio and connect to

23:37

an SSD to hand to an editor are going to

23:41

be interested in the iPhone 15 for USBC

23:43

connectivity yes is that really

23:47

functional for me no because I just have

23:50

Canon cameras set up in my studio

23:51

already and quite frankly I'm not going

23:53

to use an iPhone at this point in my

23:55

studio though if I were a newer YouTuber

23:57

sure I'd use an iPhone in a studio and

23:59

it's kind of useful although I could

24:00

just airdrop the footage right if you're

24:03

local enough to use a a solid state

24:05

drive then you're local enough to

24:07

airdrop so I don't know if that's

24:09

convincing enough very very Niche

24:12

upgrade on the cameras the actual 5G

24:15

service appears to be exactly the same

24:17

we didn't even hear battery improvements

24:19

okay the physical changes in terms of

24:21

the titanium frame don't care the inside

24:24

being more repairable don't care like

24:27

frankly the upgrades here it's tough

24:31

what you're really doing for 99 of

24:33

people what you're saying is if I have

24:35

the iPhone 14 I'm going to get the

24:38

iPhone 15 because either I'm a techie

24:41

and I want the latest and greatest or I

24:44

really want that switch button that's

24:46

going to let me quickly switch to

24:48

shortcuts okay so if you want to spend a

24:52

thousand bucks again for an iPhone

24:53

because now you got to go pro right you

24:55

got to go to the iPhone 14 pro uh or

24:58

sorry the iPhone 15 Pro to be able to

25:01

get the switchy button here which is

25:03

going to start at let's see the max is

25:06

going to start at 11.99 so if you're

25:08

going to get the large one you're at

25:09

11.99 and the iPhone 15 Pro is going to

25:12

be 9.99 sure maybe you can get some

25:14

trade-in value on your four team but

25:16

realistically is it worth a thousand

25:18

dollars for the little switchy button

25:21

that is now a shortcut button uh and

25:24

USBC my answer to that

25:26

no I'm not going to upgrade to the

25:29

iPhone 15. I feel horrible saying that

25:31

as an apple shareholder it's in my ETF

25:34

uh I can't do it I I like I have to

25:37

replace my docs uh the benefits for me

25:40

aren't worth it I can upgrade to the

25:43

iCloud storage uh larger storage

25:45

settings with

25:47

software like I click a button do I

25:49

really care about that quicker do not

25:51

disturb setting not really now the nice

25:54

thing is that do not disturb setting

25:56

does update to all of your devices right

25:58

so if you could do it physically with a

26:00

button it changes everything but what I

26:02

really care about is a physical switch

26:03

anyway you know I so I try to just leave

26:06

the physical switch on loud and then I

26:09

just have my do not disturb setting the

26:10

way I want and frankly changing the Do

26:13

Not Disturb setting from your watch

26:14

isn't that hard now I'm not wearing my

26:17

watch so it might take a little extra

26:18

second here but generally what I do is I

26:21

just swipe up from the bottom and then I

26:22

hit the little sleepy mode and then it

26:24

says do you want to go to do not disturb

26:26

personal work I change it to work on for

26:29

an hour on until this evening or on

26:31

until I leave and it's done

26:32

automatically updates on all my devices

26:35

anyway my iPads my iPhones and all that

26:38

so because that do not disturb setting I

26:40

can control for my watch anyway and it

26:42

updates on all of my devices really

26:44

means I don't necessarily need this

26:46

physical switch and I just just leave it

26:48

on loud all the time that's what I've

26:49

done for the last year so for me I hate

26:52

to say it I can't see going to the 15 as

26:55

an upgrade from the 14. now if this was

26:58

my first time getting into the iPhone

27:00

would I save money and go for the 14. it

27:05

depends in my situation if I didn't have

27:08

an iPhone and I was gonna go for an

27:09

iPhone I would buy the 15 just because

27:12

if I was going to go from not having it

27:14

to having the latest I'll have the

27:16

latest right I'll pay the extra you know

27:18

three 400 bucks and just to have the

27:19

latest if I was tighter on money or I

27:23

wanted to invest that money into stocks

27:25

instead which is the more prudent

27:26

financially responsible thing to do

27:28

would I go for the iPhone 14 and save

27:30

three 400 bucks instead of going for the

27:32

iPhone 15 absolutely same battery at

27:36

least based on what we were presenting

27:37

same battery same 5G you get the always

27:40

on display you get the um uh what's it

27:44

called I forgot the little this Dynamic

27:46

display set up over here at the top

27:48

where the phone call comes in or the

27:50

directions most of these things are

27:51

software updates anyway the camera for

27:53

99 of people is basically the same they

27:57

didn't even really talk about better

27:59

video in this one yes maybe the the

28:03

um a17 is going to be a little bit of a

28:07

better chip for some of this graphic

28:08

processing again though for 99 of people

28:11

is the 15 worth the upgrade from the 14

28:13

again as an apple investor as somebody

28:16

who's gotten every single new Apple

28:17

phone the answer to me is a hard no and

28:22

ordinarily Lauren and I are the first

28:25

people like we'll wake up early to go

28:27

pre-order the new phone this is not it

28:29

it just wasn't encouraging enough and in

28:33

this kind of consumer environment I

28:35

don't see other people going for it

28:37

either okay now what about the watch is

28:40

the watch worth upgrading to uh and then

28:44

we got to talk about the stock okay is

28:46

the watch worth upgrading to what are we

28:49

getting with the new watch if you

28:50

already have the ultra look if I didn't

28:52

have the series 8 and I didn't have the

28:55

ultra and I've been waiting to get the

28:57

watch would I get the ultra 2 or the

28:59

series 9 probably yeah I think these are

29:03

great devices they are the best watch to

29:06

exist the iPhone 14 is the best phone to

29:08

exist I I have some of the best Android

29:11

devices as well so I compare ecosystem

29:14

wise I know I'm going to piss off some

29:16

Android folks on that I'm sorry it's

29:18

just it's just better and the watch is

29:21

just better at Apple it is very very

29:23

good and I highly recommend the product

29:26

but again if you already have the watch

29:28

one what are you getting the ultra watch

29:30

one what are you getting from going from

29:32

the ultra watch one to the ultra watch

29:34

2. well you're not getting any new

29:36

buttons you're getting the fact that the

29:39

frame on the outside is now functional

29:41

for display although that might come to

29:42

you through software updates anyway

29:44

you're not getting a better battery

29:46

you're not getting better 5G service

29:48

you're getting on board processing of

29:52

Siri

29:55

yeah and that's roughly it Beyond then

29:58

the little tap feature those are the two

30:01

big things that you're getting so for me

30:03

is onboard Siri processing and the tap

30:07

tap feature worth it well I'll say if it

30:10

was just the tap tap feature the answer

30:12

would be no I don't really care that

30:15

much to control with the tap Tab and

30:17

quite frankly because they showed that

30:20

the tap tap feature is going to kind of

30:21

bring up like all the different apps you

30:23

could cycle between I kind of suspect

30:26

that it's going to be one of those

30:27

things where like oh I'm going to tap

30:29

tap to silence a song and then it's

30:31

actually just going to do a different

30:32

function like pull up your shelf instead

30:35

I'm like ah this is going to be a little

30:36

frustration and learning curve around

30:38

using that with without a doubt it's not

30:40

enough for me to get a new watch no

30:43

battery life improvements whatever and

30:45

the battery life on the ultra one is

30:46

already great

30:47

now as far as onboard Siri processing is

30:51

that worth eight hundred dollars

30:53

well I'll tell you this the times I'm

30:56

frustrated by Siri not being able to

30:58

process is when I'm on a run in one

31:01

specific part of my run where there's no

31:03

service what I love in that part to have

31:05

onboard Siri processing to be able to

31:07

write a memo down absolutely is it worth

31:10

eight hundred dollars

31:12

no so once again

31:14

can I justify going from the ultra one

31:17

to the ultra 2 the answer to that is no

31:19

so unfortunately for the first time in a

31:23

very long time this refresh cycle for me

31:25

is one I'm probably sitting out now I am

31:29

very excited about the provision still

31:31

coming early next year I told myself I

31:34

don't know I can't see myself buying it

31:35

but I'll probably will I probably will

31:37

buy the provision just because I I got I

31:40

gotta try it I gotta try it okay these

31:43

upgrades I can visualize I could see how

31:45

they're going to apply to my life I can

31:47

tell you it's not worth the money as far

31:49

as uh then a newer iPad would I go for a

31:52

bigger iPad hell yeah would I go for a

31:55

new iPad probably didn't hear anything

31:57

about that at this event am I gonna

31:59

upgrade my iCloud storage absolutely uh

32:02

am I a little frustrated uh that uh that

32:05

Apple didn't bring us more yeah probably

32:07

I mean Apple's down 2.2 percent so it

32:09

kind of expected but then again other

32:11

parts of the market are down as well the

32:13

nasdaq's down one percent test is down

32:15

two percent so you can't really say this

32:17

was highly unexpected and that Apple's

32:20

getting punished for the stock wise is

32:22

it worth trimming Apple okay that's the

32:24

last question so I actually did reduce

32:27

my Apple exposure about a month-ish ago

32:30

uh and I increased my allocation to

32:33

other stocks that I thought had a bigger

32:35

upside I do still have apple exposure is

32:38

this event going to change my opinion on

32:40

Apple stock not really do I really think

32:44

the stock market is pricing in that

32:46

Apple's revenues are about to take off

32:48

on all these new product announcements

32:49

no uh as a result I don't really think

32:53

there's a big need to like Panic sell

32:56

Apple or oh my gosh change all the

32:58

allocations in apple this was heavily

33:00

expected that this wasn't going to be

33:03

that incredible of an event or discovery

33:06

of new products or whatever it's

33:08

unfortunate because we'd like to see

33:10

some new innovation we did get some new

33:13

things here but a lot of the new things

33:15

that I care about honestly like hearing

33:17

about when that Vision Pro was coming

33:19

early next year great news the iCloud

33:22

storage upgrades to six TBS and 12T

33:25

fantastic we needed this uh are the

33:28

upgrades worth it to go from 14 to 15

33:30

without a battery life Improvement or 5G

33:32

Improvement or serious camera

33:34

improvements for normal users no are the

33:37

watch improvements worth it for no

33:39

change in battery life on the ultra uh

33:42

or you know really any other function

33:44

other than the tap tap or onboard Siri

33:46

Improvement no it was worth it no so

33:49

that's my take thank you so much for

33:51

watching my uh recap let me know your

33:54

thoughts in the comments below thanks

33:56

not advertise these things that you told

33:58

us here I feel like nobody else knows

34:00

about this we'll try a little

34:01

advertising and see how it goes

34:02

congratulations man you have done so

34:04

much people love you people look up to

34:06

you Kevin financial analyst and YouTuber

34:09

meet Kevin always great to get your take
