APPLE’S NEXT EVENT IS A DOOMSDAY CLOCK FOR YOUR WALLET: THE iPHONE 16 LAUNCH IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER
September 9th is just a few short days away, and Apple’s next event is poised to unleash a tidal wave of new products on the world, leaving a trail of financial devastation in its wake. The iPhone 16, a behemoth of a device with price tags to match its gargantuan expectations, is the crown jewel of this event. But that’s not all – rumors suggest Apple will also introduce a new Apple Watch Series 10, with prices that will make your jaw drop like a lead weight.
BUT WAIT, THERE’S HOPE! (Sort of.)
As we count down the days to this impending financial doom, Amazon has thrown a bone to those who dare to resist the siren song of Apple’s latest and greatest. The Apple Watch Ultra 2, a behemoth of a smartwatch with a price tag to match, has seen a $100 discount to a mere $699. But let’s be real, it’s still a ridiculously expensive device, and you’re only getting it because you’re a glutton for punishment or a die-hard Apple fanatic.
BUT IS IT WORTH IT? (Probably not.)
The Ultra 2 boasts a rugged build, a battery that can last for days, and a laundry list of features that will impress only the most ardent tech enthusiasts. But let’s be real, those features come at a cost, both literally and figuratively. The double tap feature, which allows you to perform a variety of tasks with a simple flick of the wrist, is cool and all, but is it worth the steep price tag? Probably not.
WILL THE NEW ULTRA 3 BE WORTH IT? (Maybe?)
Rumors suggest that the upcoming Ultra 3 will feature a faster chip and other iterative updates, but is it enough to justify the cost? Only time will tell, but for now, the Ultra 2 is still a solid choice for those who can’t resist the allure of Apple’s latest and greatest. Just don’t say we didn’t warn you…
