Marques, Andrew, and David unpack Apple’s latest event, from AirPods and Apple Watch health features to the iPhone 18 Pro and Apple’s first foldable, the iPhone Duo.
The episode reviews Apple’s new AirPods 5, Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4, iPhone 18 Pro camera and performance updates, and the iPhone Duo foldable. The hosts focus on practical trade-offs: earbud fit, health tracking, privacy around always-listening features, the value of variable aperture, image authenticity, and the Duo’s unusual software design. They praise Apple’s polish and playful animations while questioning the under-display camera, the foldable’s high price, and whether some features are meaningful improvements or simply ways to distinguish new hardware.
