My bet for the Apple Event tomorrow : they’re not gonna call it the “Ultra” or “Fold”. I reckon the MacBook Neo ushered in a new era of naming at Apple and they’ll try something entirely new. (Remember when we were all certain the Vision Pro was going to be called Reality Pro?)

Two weeks with the iPhone Air and zero battery complaints. It actually feels a better batter than my 16 Pro.
Instagram should have a feature where you can search for the brands that have advertised to you. They’ve shown me so many running clothing ads, and now I’m ready to buy I want to browse the ads and make a choice

The Uber Apple Watch live activity in the Smart Stack is very cool and useful.
Inspiring set of Apple Watch band choices in the Apple Store this spring!
I have no idea how Apple’s going to (a) address the year it’s had not shipping Apple Intelligence and (b) respond to Google I/O and all of OpenAI’s (great) announcements. No clue. What an exciting time to be competing in consumer tech.
