While Apple’s “Glowtime” event for the iPhone 16 series unveiled new products and features, it left tech journalists and users feeling uninspired and bored, according to Android Central writer Brady. Unlike the risk-taking and engaging events hosted by Google, Apple’s pre-recorded presentation felt like a long advertisement, lacking the personality and flair of past Apple launches.
Brady points out that even though the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max boast upgraded camera systems, the overall improvements felt underwhelming. He argues that Apple’s pre-recorded events, filled with slides and cinematic montages, lack the excitement of live demos.
Google, on the other hand, has been making strides with its tech events, particularly with its recent Pixel 9 Pro launch. The event featured live demos and showcased Google’s impressive AI features, attracting attention and enthusiasm.
With its pre-recorded presentations and lackluster product updates, Apple appears to be losing its touch in the product launch game. Google’s risk-taking and engaging events are now considered the gold standard, leaving Apple lagging behind in captivating its audience.
