its 4:30am here 😭
goodnight people ❤
hello!
Second, already know this is about to get thousands of likes
good morning arun!
Restwell brother
we love you arun
2:00 Kinda funny when arun release this video after showing his transparent tech video 😂
Good catch!
Def planned
*Meh tech RUclipsrs already knows what's coming. Companies reveal it earlier to them to make them enough time to make videos faster like this. He definitely planned it.*
@Rapzody everyone knew it was coming
Arun: good night people ❤️
_after 2 hours_ "ooh! a good comment!
I was laughing when craig started commenting on the multitasking. “The pointer is more pointery” “revolutionary, I know”
Remembering the dictator dialogue.... "It needs to be more pointy" :D
Same, it’s like how much of an ego can you have?
@EthanUpdike-w2sego? He’s making fun of himself and Apple.
@EthanUpdike-w2sjoke went over your head bro. Moron
@EthanUpdike-w2s bruh
Live translate... like a week ago I left my mom a voicemail saying I really need you to call me back and the iPhone transcribed it as "I don't need you to call me back". That was spoken English to written English. Can't wait to see their translating ability
Lol
lol that’s expected now with Siri AI (Apple Intelligence)
Sad
ChatGPT really does it better. Really wished the others did it as good as it
@unbongarcon19 wait 🫷 holup
9:45 first thing they need to improve is Siri not saying “here what I found on Internet”
My Siri doesn’t even reply to me when I ask something sometimes. I’d speak and then it’d pause and close even when I speak loud enough absolutely mind boggling
So?? ChatGPT does the same thing
@Lunø-pocso? So you need to understand and level up your understanding, exactly this is how much dumb siri is.
@ravipratik3305 Sooo? Chat GPT is dumb to! Siri is dumb enough
iOS 26 is more like a glass themed iOS 18 rather than a complete redesign. It actually feels so similar to iOS 18 apart from liquid glass thing.
I honestly love the liquid glass UI. It's just beautiful and makes me feel good just by looking at it. UIs have become sterile, and I love that apple is bringing some organic look to it.
You would be surprised comparing two phones with the respective operating systems iOS18 almost feels outdated and keep in mind that a majority on the time spent on iOS26 and all the other platforms was stability over features because they know how buggy iOS18 was this redesign is a redesign it's not one flat look anymore it's essentially ever part or peace of an app is separate and stacked so their are more parts an app developers can work on with rounder icons and gyroscope lighting effects that enhance depth try looking at it from a more positive perspective and don't forget people did ask Apple for a new look.
You know about a decade ago we already had this in the app called "theme"
It's insane how we can make a simple design change seem like such a big thing just cause it's an iPhone. If any other company added this liquid glass thing no one would bat an eye.
@GGori_99ikr😂😂😂
"Tim's been cooking all along" is such a funny thing to say, I will be looking for the next opportunity to use this exact phrase.
LMAO LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT
Tims wife when hungry: Tim!... Cook!!
Tim ain't cooked shit for years nos
This the only man I trust with explaining iOS updates. Not Apple, not Tim, just Arun
You really should just look at the keynote, arun has always been biased when discussing Apple
Apple explained tbh is more unbiased then Arun
That's saying a lot but do keep in mind that perhaps a lot of the features he said should have been introduces are there just were not mentioned in the event, they might be preparing for the launch of their new products end of this year and they don't want to reveal much now so for me he might have been too quick with the judgment and Tim might actually be cooking it's just a matter of waiting. That's not to say he was wrong his videos are always the best to watch.
Not MKBHD
Brandon butch is the best guy for ios updates
"Tim's been cooking all along" bro had to sneak that one in there 😂
How the hell do you this so quick. Beautifully edited, wonderfully informative. Kudos to you and your editors!
everything was leaked buddy
I think brands reach out to creators before hand and then have them release the video after the event ends. Just guessing based on how they work with companies for new phone drops and embargo periods.
because he made it a week ago and has a team to edit and post the video for him while he sleeps👍
@dreamblade7777 your videos ain't even in the same category as mrwhosetheboss bro 🥀
@dreamblade7777 So reported
Jerry Rig with evil smile says "Glass is glass and all glass breaks" 😂
The only thing that guy is doing is having melt downs on X about Trump. Embarrassing
Digital glass doesn't break. 1/0 for Apple.
@kyyyy21 rightfully so. trump is the worst president in the history of the united states!
@kyyyy21urgh real. I remember when there was a giveaway where you had to follow him there. I didn't stay after the giveaway.
Like, man I follow you for tech teardowns, not this.
4:25 Italian grandma got me dying💀💀
5:54 perfectly timed Temu ad
"it - feels like a dream, feels like magic" 😭
Hahha sounds like a cool coincidence
maybe he knew😅
For me it was an Amazon and Uber One ad🤣
Ads on RUclips? Peasants!
SAM3
As a user, Xiaomi did this before. It didn't work It will not work too, Meanwhile this fruit company is delusional
Finally, someone with some real criticism. All the other RUclipsrs are doing nothing but praising.
This is praising.
Criticism isn't out yet.
this isn’t even criticism….
Lol arun is a huge samsung shill no fucking wonder
He's a shill for tech in general. Besides, he's just as critical with Samsung@jessenthebenezer
@Pawel-rv1ekI was thinking bot 😁
I like how Arun is perfectly sincere! We need this criticality from the creators that represent our voice.
“Tim’s been Cooking all along” Killed me🤣🤣🤣…..Seek to 8:00
1:45 Glass is glass, and glass breaks
Scratches at a level 6 with deeper grooves at level 7
Goated comment
😂😂😂😂😂 like all iPhones
JRE ✅😂
Bars
3:32 hold assist, thank you google pixel for showing apple what to do next
"Mom can we have Windows Vista?"
- "But we have Windows Vista at home"
Windows Vista at home:
"Ew, i think i stepped on poo"
The poo:
Mac OS Aqua just exists before Win Vista lol…
Don’t get it!!!
@VincentValentane so?
@faizr93 Mac OS X’s Auqa share similarities with Windows Vista’s aero. They are saying that Aqua came before Aero.
The phone’s ability to screen unknown calls now is something I didn’t know I needed. Planning my next MaxPureCases haul while waiting for calls sounds perfect.
Google pixel been doing this on android for ages
@djollieuk okay?
@redvoid332people acting like its revolutionary haha
@djollieukwell it’s not but it’s just that people have been wanting a change like this for a while especially to go back to a style like this we haven’t seen since IOS 5 which is around the time I started getting into phones, it’s not that it’s revolutionary it’s just the first actually GOOD sounding and looking thing we’ve gotten in years from Apple lmao
@redvoid332fair enough good explanation. I left iphones for android because i hated itunes and tranfer was horrendous. Images of music rather than mp3s etc and also paying for apps on ios as appose to free apps on android.
Glass is cool looking, but without the contrasts it’ll make readability a challenge.
It is only cool looking, and that is the major problem..
It changes according to the background dynamically
That's is why there will be Apple Opticals to assist in reading. Watch this space.🤣
I am running the beta and reading notifications is sometimes impossible
I literally changed my widget backgrounds from transparent to a more contrasty one due to readability
To Arun and the editing team. I might be delusional for commenting but a while back I criticized the editing style of the videos that inclined more towards maintaining attention using cheap tactics cheap people use like Mr beast that essentially don’t respect the audience but all your past videos have been completely different, not barebones but edited thoughtfully and in a calmer manner. As a content creator, these things truly set you and your team apart. Thank you for keeping your personality and unique selling points to yourself and your brand identity.
You should watch Mr beast's recent video, editing has been scaled back and is actually watchable.
Who are you judge Arun's video!
Both of u need to enable auto correct because the English isn't making sense@frag4007
I mean they obviously do still use cheap whacky mr beast editing and always will.
Ikr!! I had actually seen your comment on the Switch 2 video and have been observing this ever since!
Windows 7 laughing from the graveyard after looking at glass design
as a ui designer i cannot believe they are doing this, glassmorphism has never taken off because it looks nice but has no practicality as users spend half their time squinting at the screen... and you are right.. windows tried it and failed..
Windows Vista bro
@davidm8394I’ve been wanting to get into UI design . Is the pay and job opportunities good if you’re honestly interested in the field ?
@davidm8394 win 7 was a hit, don't put text on glass tho
@davidm8394Also Windows only used it on the borders where there was minimal text
“Arabic Calculator” hits different 😂😂😂😂
8:06 oh I see what you did there!! You cooked!!
Looks like its years old design where xiaomi used to provide cheap free skins in their Theme center
I swear I used some of these icons in my old s7 edge, I don’t remember the name of that launcher anymore, but it would let me make EVERYTHING transparent.
They have definitely made iPadOS a lot closer to MacOS than I expected. But yeah, I'm waiting to see the differences which set it back. Most of the heavy productivity apps have limitations on the iPad version.
Crazy how this video came after your transparent tech video
IF THE VISION WAS AFFORDABLE YO!!! 14:25 it’s not the fact that there was no consumer market and it’s nobody can afford the stupid thing… the only ones that can afford it are the one percent that honestly don’t use AR/VR they could just afford to get on a plane and fly to where they need to go to to meet who they need to talk to 🤷♂️
Exactly. Just buy a quest, way more affordable and way better.
20-30 years we’ll probably have normal consumer AR tech that isn’t suited only to mainly gamers. (Quest) Keyword: mainly. Quest can be used for other stuff but, not that great.
I'm gonna be honest that background in the video brings such an amazing vibe and feel that feels homey and nice almost relaxing 😊😁
so true !!
I love how Arun is always so balanced in his reviews! You can see he's a true fan- not in the sense that he's worshipping Apple like a fanboy, but in the sense that he gives honest criticism because we wants them to improve, while still praising and getting excited for them when changes are genuinely impactful and noteworthy! And this is why I trust him the most out of all techtubers.
9:29 _exact_ same reaction!
13:49 is it just me or do the revamped personas kinda feel like the holograms from the ironman tech scenes in marvel movies??
Your Editors are saviours i swear
5:40 My 2018 300$ Poco F1 tells me if the lens is dirty. Glad to see Apple finally catching up to the competition, only 7 years later!
Haha. I was thinking the same about many of these "upgrades" that my Samsung phone and tablet have had for years.
"Tim's been cooking"😂
4:21 I don’t think any kind of software can understand an Italian grandma speaking one of the Italian languages/dialects
4:58 basically gaming hub from Samsung 😅😂
True
Right 😅
yk Gaming Hubs aren't limited to just Samsung
And how much stuff has Samsung stolen from apple?
Thank you for saving me for watching the event myself, its always a pain but I gotta to it, all the creators usually push recaps late, but this was just so thoughtful from your team. Thanks!
I love how their own demo of the live translation feature had two translation errors
Thanks for dropping the vid even though it’s late for you, great vid as always Aaron!
Under delivered is an understatement 0:35
More like never delivered
7:05 pretty funny how the question that you can see on the preview here is asking about like what art form it is and the right answer is just “art”
android had "liquid glass" a LONG time ago
Wow. Features that the pixel and google assistant has had for years and years now. What innovation
Who cares
@crae_s well they sure did improve the ai functionality 🤣🤣🤣 you guys are just gonna eat anything tim cook so he just cook whatever he has at hand
You mean how they were late to AI and made a complete hash of it. @crae_s
@crae_s Apple sucker detected.
@BG-ir1iihow is he being an apple sucker?
Tim has been cooking sent me to orbit 🗣️🗣️🗣️
As someone who installed iOS 26 beta a few days ago at first I HATED it with a passion but now…starting to grow on me😬
Thanks arun I accidentally misssed the event when a overslept
I wish Apple gave the iPad windowing feature to iPhones as well. When the iPhone is connected to an external display, it could display the new windowing interface on the external display and use the phone screen as a touchpad, kinda like Samsung Dex. It would be really cool and I hope that it happens someday!
Yeah, but I mean… Then they wouldn’t sell as many iPads 😅
So comparing
3:44 dude pixel already does this
5:45 Not to brag but seeing the 'lens cleaning hint' as one of the interesting updates feels so out of place. I thought this is a normal thing in all the phones, being a user of Google camera app.
If a system doesn’t have it, and gets it, it’s noteworthy for that system whether some other system had the feature already.
Why do you think this is a brag? 😂
Yeah dude you're right
That windows aero them pack vibes 😂
Apple: We invented liquid glass theme
Jerryrigeverything: it scratches at level 6 with a deeper groove at level 7😂😂😂
If Mrwhosetheboss uploads it will always get over 1 million views the next day.
Damn that was quick, my man on the grind
Look at how many key concepts there are on this video😭🙏
Glass is Glass and Glass breaks 😭
Right. Just got a 16 pro today and not even used to it yet. I like it tho. Zach is the best tho. I don’t like clear stuff honestly I like the old style iOS from like the first couple iPhones guess ime in the minority tho.
It also scratches at a level 6 and has deeper grooves at a level 7
But it's not solid glass, it's liquid glass 😂
Lmfao 😂 😂
Who at Apple seriously thought a fully glass UI would be easy to read? Like, did anyone even think about usability?🤣🤣
I like it tho for the Home Screen, but I hope we will be able to customize it for others parts
I wish they at least gave color to the glass instead of full glass
10:03 stop being so generous
Literally 1/10
it's windows vista looks good lord... to be fair i am down to go back to the olden days
"inspired by glass and transparency"
fruitiger aero is coming back
i was thinking the same thing
we are so back
Let's hope other companies don't follow Apple. 90% of what Apple introduced was blatantly copied from Samsung where it's been for years. The glassy design is copied from Windows from 20 years ago. It failed for good reasons. I pray other companies don't follow this BS
Everybody keeps saying Vista or Aqua but neither actually emulated how glass refracts at its edges.
Some parts of the PS3 and Wii U actually did that. This is cool.
Maybe people don't notice how glass works. They just see transparency and think "ooh Vista, oooh Aero"
You won't get it, Sherlock
Liquid Glass is beautiful and great for Vision OS. But Apple's mistake is going all-in on the design language on every other platform.
I think they'll eventually dial back the amount of liquid glass on iOS, MacOS and iPadOS. You'll see see Liquid Glass, but in a sensible quantity.
Apple still charging $100 per year just for devs to share their app, while Google charges a one time fee of $25 is just insane to me, why alienate potential developers?
and that's also why there's literal scam garbage slop on google play store lmao
$$ over innovation
I saw this exact comment on MKBHD’s video about this event…
It’s a bot people
The fact that Arun said apple liquid glass is "like Areo" with zero regret makes me feel like our minds are synced.
so we added windows aero from vista
14:00 Why didn’t they just make it so the Apple Pencil can do this instead of using a third party Logitech pen?
Poor decision making is an apple thing
As an aero glass lover this is already my most favorite os update ever
3:49 Oh no! I LIKE LISTENING TO THE HOLD MUSIC!
4:02 Viber too
3:46 you mean what Google's been doing for a few years now
Google is basically a software company, whereas Apple is hardware (*), so it isn't remarkable that Apple will be behind the curve in software -- it has always been. Yet, people bang on about it as if it is a revelation. Get over it. If you need the latest features sooner, then buy an Android device.
(*) Google without hardware would still be massive. Apple without hardware would be dead.
@andyH_Englandapple has been a software company since their beginnings. Their products have been hand and hand (software/hardware) for decades. Mac vs. PC is literally, just a software war.
@TheKingkong2468Apple software is needed to run the hardware. Without the hardware the software is useless. They nearly went bust when they tried to be a software company and since that period they are hardware. Google is 99% software. Apple is developing its own LLM but as it is based around privacy it takes longer than say Gemini which farms all your data for machine learning.
@andyH_EnglandI get what you're saying now.
Am I the only one who is binge watching Mrwhosetheboss for his latest to his oldest videos in order for fun?
Your videos are so impressive. I have been watching your channel for years and the quality of the videos are top tier!
0:14 iphone 17 ❎ iphone 26 ✅ next years innovation
True 👍🏻
😂😂😂
my guy it’s os not device
Probably the only significant "upgrade" here 😏😂🤣
It’s a software event. Later is device announcement………..😴
loving the unification of all of these devices
Bros forehead can fit the burn khalifs (if u don't know it is the tallest tower and located in Dubai)
A few years back Microsoft brought out their new design language. All those floating, curling shapes and ribbons. People loved it and every brand raced to copy it, well every tech brand. As a motion designer, I'm always seeing "Microsoft inspired design" in mood boards and client requests. I don't think too many people are going to chase after Apple with this glass look. We had Windows Vista, nobody liked it!
5:40 what do you mean arabic calculator ???
Probably just using the standard Arabic numerals 0-9
Honestly, looking at how the event gone over, I get the feeling that this is their stopgap year in everything but design. The standout to me, an iPad user, was the new ipad items to make it more like an laptop, and it addresses a lot of my central concerns, but I can't help but have that stopgat feeling still.
Apple actually rotates between design and functionality all the time. When functionality is slow, they update design.
The stop was the 16, if all rumors are true plus taking into Account new EU longevity requirements for tech, the 17 will bring the big leap forward in Innovation, huge Hardware Upgrades, Software Update, AI fully adapted, phone redesign. If they do everything what is rumored then the 18 will only be a slightly polished version of the 17
In smartphones and OS's, what ywar DOSN'T feel like a stop-gap? Incremental, meaningless updates. Tech peaked a few years back, nothing has really actually improved, weve just moved gimmicks from camera etc. to medicore AI.
2:38 Not to mention that the Camera Icon looks like the Original iOS Camera Icon.
Give this guy a job at apple!!
I doubt he’d want the pay cut! 😂
Tim's been Cooking all along-what a beautiful line
Tim's Cooked is more apt 😆
Lowkey got like windows vista vibes from some of the glass elements! Hopefully the software isn't disastrous like that lol
I hope you know that Mac OS had transparency elements “like vista” way before vista even existed
we can only hopeeee!
"Tim's been cooking all along"
6:15 yea i got a PlayStation 5 now but next year I expect to have the PlayStation 26 that way I know for sure I got the latest version
Gta 6 ❌
Gta 26 ✅
Forza Horizon 5 ❌
Forza Horizon 26 ✅
😂😂
Ikr bro yappin
The difference is that Apple has, what… 6 different device categories? They are attempting to unify the design experience between all 6 Operating Systems, not to mention various activities that can be handed off from one device to another
It makes perfect sense for them to choose a single version number for all of them at this point, rather than 6 different version numbers (where it’s not immediately obvious what the corresponding/compatible version from another device would be)
8:05 for Tim Cook
let tim cook!
I am better than Mrwhostheboss, my content is better 🤡🤓
@dreamblade7777wrong
Its a troll comment, chill @Nalesh50
@Nalesh50 it's for trolling,
Tim Cook ain't cookin anything bruh 🥲
I like the new style, reminds me of 2000s futuristic
Don't have a iphone but still seeing what they have done😅
Broke
@Skywalker_1858 samsung costs more than apple bro
2:08 yeah, this is the first time I feel like I don't like Apple's UI either.
I feel the same way
😢 you guys will be ok🤣
Always impressed by apples ability to do literally nothing new and still sell it like its a great revolution.
Your videos are always so well-edited!
1:18 what I think is, people like how Apple used to look when it has the skeuomorphism, where it felt like apps were 3D, they want to merge people that used to enjoy Apple for Apple, and people who only know Apple for how it looks
Tim's been cooking all along😂😂Loved that one😅
Android be like: ah its our children are finally growing soo cute😅
Reminds me of 3rd party Windows Aero design back port for XP back in the day
These new updates SEEM GREAT, but let’s see how they really turn out when these launches… I can already see the major bugs through the screen…
I SEE what you did there xD
Tbh they don't even seem great
They don’t really seem that great icl
15:25 it's like he'll start crying seeing rhat feature which has been in android for ages
Android tablets are ridiculously weak and slow compared to the iPads btw. These features are worthless if the cpu is slow
@tonex1080 but it still works. Imagine playing a game, watching a video, listening to music etc while exporting a 1080p video . All that requires is a mid range android phone
I think the ipad is becoming a 2 in 1 macbook so it's better to compare it with windows tablets that run on arm chips like the surface pro 12 or something
@tonex1080 Nobody is talking about the Amazon Fire kids tablet. This is about Samsung Galaxy tablets with DeX.
@AP307-s4e67
It's Window's Vista for apple
Except on Windows Vista (Aero) things we're legible
lol
@Luka9S9 yep lol
Now its just more liquid glass blurry looking
microsoft did that over 20 yrs ago lol
@Luka9S9 Except if you actually care instead of pretending to care you’d do basic research and soon find out that Mac OS had a windows vista aero design language way before windows even did, please look up the aqua elements of old Mac OS before making such a stupid and purposefully misleading comment. You are the reason the internet is a bad place right now.
This glass thing was there in Android themes since forever
6:27 They just wanted to sound much ahead of Android 😂 even though they are a decade behind!
wow its not like liquid glass exists
Waaaaa waaaaaa
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Prove me wrong: Samsung has made the same phone every year adding features like plastic protection for cameras
Taking Bluetooth features away
And adding price$ meanwhile Apple adding more powerful processor improve sensors efficiency and the price stays the same
In summary Samsung makes their phones worse and increases price
Apple makes their phones better keeps the price the same
Samsung $1,200
Apple $1,100
Apple🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😆🤣
Samsung🤬
