Back to EpisodesEpisode 138 - A Different Kind of Apple Recap, Gender Neutral Dongles
Description
It's an all new That Real Blind Tech show where the entire gang is back together to discuss the Apple Wanderlust event, the products we have already ordered, and much more.
We start off discussing why we recorded this episode later than usual. Hey, like we have said before, we got busy lives.
Apple kicked off its Wanderlust event with a video of how Apple products have saved lives. Well let's just say this gentleman did not make the video as his butt dial triggered the S.O.S. alert.
No, Mexico did not discover alien life!

We start off discussing all the new iPhone 15's that were announced. We discuss the new action button coming to the Pro lineup and what its capabilities will be. We discuss the switch from lighting to USBc and how the port will be standard USBc. Relax everyone, it has been confirmed that the Apple cloth will work with all iPhone 15 models! The iPhone 15's USBc will be capable of reverse charging for your other Apple USBc devices, and possibly non-Apple USBc devices. Apple in iOS 17 has introduced 20 new ringtones.
We then get to iOS 17 and the bugs we have been having. Since iOS 17 launched today, you may have already updated, but if you did a backup, you can probably still roll back to iOS 16 until Apple stops signing it which could be the end of the week. Remember, not everyone will have the same bugs. We discuss being able to invoke Siri without the Hey and using back to back commands.
