The new Siri UI looks absolutely fantastic on iPhone Air, with the default glass wallpaper

@AnxiousHolly The only reason Apple is not suing these shameless chinese companies is that Chinese nationalists who always stand w Chinese companies will destroy Apple’s business in China

@MisutaaAsriel The new foldable iPhone might be the best shot.

[Lexus C.  ᯅ @LChenlz]

Most people do not understand iPhone Air. It’s more than a beautifully simple phone. It’s a proof of concept for polished titanium, an ultra-thin body, and a complete redesign of iPhone’s internals to enable the exciting products ahead: including but not limited to foldable iPhone and the 20th anniversary iPhone, which are both rumored to share iPhone Air’s texture—ultra premium. It might be niche today, but it’ll soon be mainstream.

@mweinbach I feel the same way!

@AnxiousHolly Honor is shameless lol. What a garbage company. If Apple is so bad stop copying it then

@jammasternate @Microsoft @Apple The Archive tour person told me they try to keep the artifacts that carry meanings to the company. They also keep recordings of events, software boxes, newspaper with msft on it etc.

* original MacBook Air (2008): It was the iconic moment when Steve Jobs unveiled it at Macworld Expo in San Francisco — famously pulling it out of a manila envelope.

* Power Macintosh G3 (1999): Its translucent blue-and-white tower was Apple's post-iMac reinvention of the professional Mac. It introduced USB and FireWire to Apple's pro line, ditched legacy ports, and became famous for its tool-free swing-open side door that exposed the entire motherboard. A striking bridge between the beige Power Mac era and the modern Mac.

* original Apple StyleWriter (1991): It was Apple's line of consumer inkjet printers, sold from 1991 through the late 1990s for Macintosh computers.

* Macintosh SE (1987): (The one on the left) It was a compact all-in-one Apple Macintosh computer. It looked like the original 1984 Macintosh — small beige case, built-in 9-inch black-and-white screen, keyboard and mouse — but was more expandable and practical. The “SE” stood for System Expansion, because it was the first compact Mac with an internal expansion slot.

* Macintosh 512K (1984): It was Apple's quick follow-up to the original 128K Macintosh, quadrupling the RAM to make the Mac actually practical for real work.

* Apple Monitor //c & Monitor //c Stand (1984): Apple unveiled the //c along with its matched accessories: the Monitor //c and the Monitor //c Stand. The //c itself was Apple's first "portable" Apple II (luggable, ~7.5 lbs), and the tiny 9" monitor + tilting stand were built to match its footprint exactly.

* original Apple ImageWriter (1983): It was commonly used with early Apple computers like the Apple II, Apple III, and Macintosh. It was notable because it could print Macintosh screen graphics and fonts reasonably well for its time, making it important in early desktop publishing and home/office computing.
