Completely agree... There is hardly any innovation anymore. Just things that the competition had for years... And the notch is still there WTF

I was mostly disappointed at the presentation. The best upgrade/improvement came to the iPad mini. Why not give the iPhone the fingerprint upgrade on the power button? And I think I got too excited about the rumours on Apple Watch. Wasn't nearly as exciting. Ill be upgrading my phone, but might have to wait on the watch.
