Liveblog: Apple's March iPhone SE and iPad event!
The iPhone SE impressed me more than I thought. I could see myself getting one as my first Apple device over the iPhone 6s. The 9.7 iPad Pro was a welcome addition to the iPad line.
Guess the good thing is that they can simply re-use all their phone marketing materials year after year after year, given that they all look the same.
This just muddied two different product lineups in different ways. iPhone now has design inconsistencies and iPad had branding inconsistencies. What a mess.

Dang I missed it. They must have started an hour earlier than usual. As I went on Apple.com on my iPhone,I only caught the end of the event.

iPad's aren't selling well. How does Apple fix the problem? Raise their prices. Yea, that'll do it.
Same old big-*** bezels. Maybe one day they'll figure out how to scale them down.
For crying out loud quit whining about the bezels on the iPhones they are what makes the iPhone an iPhone and I love those bezels.

OK, since you said so.
I'm so stoked. Neither Google or Microsoft generates as much excitement as Apple can. It's moments like this that make me glad I switched back to Apple, iPhone and iOS.

"It's moments like this that make me glad I switched back to Apple..." Really? These moments? I find these presentations tiresome to the extreme. I tried to watch live, but when they decided to make a "aren't we such good people" statement about the environment, I had to tune out. I just tire of it all. Just announce the **** products.
The most boring event from Apple. They couldn't care less to bring out a new design for iPhone SE. I might finally be done with Apple If they don't do anything special with the iPhone 7

Apple doesn't need a 4" iPhone. Instead, they need to reduce so much of the bloat of the 4.7" phone to get it physically down to the size of the old 4" phones. There's too much non-screen bulk to the iPhone.
@Rene I saw you on TV at the apple event

Apple just cut to the audience on the live stream, and I saw you Rene.
Wow! Comment on the Apple vs. DOJ. This is impressive!
This music from beats is terrible.
Honestly I have no clue why they call it iPad pro? If it runs a real OS but iOS isn't pro. I am sorry but I tried the iPad pro for two weeks and always grabbed my Mac book because needed a real OS for work. IPad pro 9.7 screen can't believe that also a 4inch iPhone would be good but I am afraid about the price.
New iPhone would be interesting. I wonder what price difference comparing to ip6s

2 hours and 12 minutes left to go
Can't wait. when is it gonna start?
Please, please, please - "One more thing..." an iPad Pro Mini, with Pencil support. The end of moleskins in the BEST <8" personal planner, note taker, reader, video consumption device on the planet. (PS - add a 256gb model for those offline moments).
Make it so Messrs. Cook & Schiller...
You've got the galaxy note line for that :) No need to spend an additional 100 bucks on a pen which you're gonna lose anyway because you can't just stash it in the device itself. Oh... And you don't have to charge the S Pen xD

Glad I didn't buy the first iPad Pro. Too big. Hoping for an even better Pro in a more manageable size.
I love the size of the iPad Pro. I'm never going back to the smaller one.
Too bad it runs a MOBILE OS
A mobile OS on a mobile device? What is this world coming to?
Go sit down, you make me sad.
Why can't Apple finally make their streams work on Firefox or Chrome?! -_- This is nothing but childish behavior...
The streams work in "Edge" browser on Windows 10 - that's a browser that many, many people now have (not by choice in a lot of cases - LOL!)
They must have reasons to limit them to Apple devices and one Windows browser; I'd think it is to do with compatibility more than them being "childish". Apple do not need to support ANYTHING outside of their product range; they want you to use Apple products, which, you may have noticed by now, is their business, and so limiting it to Apple products they are encouraging you to buy & use Apple products - it seems silly maybe, but why would they be actively encouraging you to use another platform?
If I were Apple, I'd do exactly what they do, too. It's their party, and they can decide who's invited and through which doors they come in. Some may not like their decisions, but then, it's not their party to make the rules for.
PS: If you're willing to do a little packet sniffing and spend a bit of time researching, there ARE ways of watching the streams on VLC Player and Quicktime Player, both of which are available for Windows (and VLC for Linux, if that's your schtick :-/)
It used to work in Chrome, before Google dropped H.264 support. Blame Google. As for Firefox, they never supported it.
Blame Mozilla and Google, they should support the standard that Apple requires.
Just like McDonalds intentionally not selling the Whopper. That's downright childish... Oh wait, your outburst is what's childish...
Why should they?

What's that in UTC?

It'd be nice if iMore provided the local time based on your system time though, it can be done via JavaScript. Engadget does this, so there's no fiddling around with timezones, at the end of the day this is why we have computers
Google ain't no friend of mine.

No surprises. Recycled parts into a new phone and iPad.

Leaks galore already told us. Zzzzzzzzz

You're absolutely right about that!!
He's just a regular troll. Ignore him.
Please, do tell what is going to be innovated in these two products that we haven't already seen from iOs devices in the past.
Then go troll yourself.
Don't you see?! Apple just 'invented' a 4 inch phone with 16gb of memory and a 2013 GPU in the year 2016...this stuff is revolutionary!!
Good point...
Can you say Loser??
Don't feed the troll.

true that, iPhone SE, iPad Pro mini? new Mac, new software update plus news on the case with FBI. I will wait for the iPhone 7 event.

I doubt it. Smaller iPhone and another iPad. Probably not releasing any groundbreaking or innovative features. I'd assume we'd get something more exciting with the next iOS announcement and the iPhone 7.
