Is it just I or the presentation was somewhat cringy?
The voice tone and body language reminded me of the low-quality and overly loud commercials I saw running in a loop in a store while trying to ignore them.
- saagarjha 6y agoThey're prerecorded and likely with poorer quality AV equipment and editing due to the present circumstances.
- stephc_int13 6y agoYeah, I can understand that. But in my opinion they could simply have used the same format they used in the past, with Jony Ive talking on a white background, or simply switch to an off-screen voice. No need for the awkward gallery...
- kgin 6y agoI’m surprised to see the negative reactions here. Everywhere else online seemed overwhelmingly positive.
- kohtatsu 6y agoA lot of us are just assholes don't worry. It's for somewhat good reason, but yeah overall I thought it was good. They mentioned privacy a lot, but I think they could have reaffirmed it more with the 3rd party video doorbells and translation in Safari and such. Opening up about differential privacy and what telemetrics they do collect when you opt-in would have earned more goodwill from me. Earlier in the event they did specify that translation was on-device though.
