Reaction to #AppleEvent on Twitter

        So comes in another September, and as is convention now, the release of another iPhone. The Apple event saw the unveiling of the second generation of the Apple Watch, as well as iPhone 7 and 7+. The iPhone has finally became water and dust resistant, and a haptic touch button replaces the mechanical home button. The removal of the headphone jack has raised eyebrows, while other changes include a twin camera on iPhone 7+ and multiple new color themes.

       As always social media has a lot to say on the topic, and #AppleEvent and #iPhone7 has been trending for over 24 hours. Here are the best takeaways from Twitter:


The color themes

When the second big color theme after 'Piano Black' was simply, "Black".

The charging cable being ignored, once again.

Same old, same old?

The absentee headphone jack stole the show, though.

The high price and sticking-out-of-the-ear design of the wireless airpods failed to offer consolation, which had to come from the free headphone jack adapter.


The iPhone keeps changing, for better or for worse. What has remained, and will remain constant is the hilarious banter that keeps constructive criticism flowing through social media.
