Are you coming from an iPhone 14?
Our home PC died this week after 10 faithful years. My wife likes using the computer at the desk so I’m about to order a M2 mini.

I am still using a Series 6 watch, but will preorder a new one when the band I want is available. That two finger tap option got me to want to upgrade.
M1 iMac, M2 MacBook Air
I own no iPads. Tried them but hate them.

I’m on a 13 mini. Not going to upgrade till they roll out the next version in a small form factor. Hate big phones.

iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus

Do not ask why each bigger version has a different name. This is the way.

trade ins on new phones are much better. And I am having a Bluetooth issue that cannot be duplicated on demand, but happens more than I want, so it is going back to Apple.
Plus, there is a new button!!!!

comfortably in your hand? I got one of the first Palm Pilots in 2000 or 2001. It had options for 1MB or the more expensive 2MB platform.

to be one of the cool kids. Remember waiting in line for an iphone 6 for 5 hours. I'm on my 3rd for iphone 12, hope to get a few more out of it.
Hope they got rid of the very fragile back glass that cracks from a 2 foot drop, no, not bitter here.
