Very impressed by the iPhone 11. However I am disappointed that we didn’t get new Macs or new AirPods.
Also my 8 Plus isn’t going anywhere.

No TouchID, no buy.

I loved my 8+. Only reason I upgraded is my internals were damaged due to sub zero temperatures so my video recording and microphone capabilities stopped working. Snagged myself a XS for 4K video recording and while I'm still not a fan of the notch, it makes a great mobile beatmaker/recorder.
Still have the 8+ and use it as a massive iPod so I can't receive phone calls when I'm at the gym.
USB-C will probably come with the 12 or 13 iPhone as lightning is still a fine connection for power/data delivery.
I agree the lack of new Macs was disappointing. I was hoping for a standard Macbook to come back as a sub $1k option for students, but maybe next year.

Potentially. Maybe I'm just waxing nostalgic for when I snagged a Mac Mini (with student discount) for $500 and wish Apple would bring back a lower end device for people who want MacOS on a budget so that poor college students can get acclimated to the environment and later upgrade to more expensive models as they become professionals.
Toss out a dual core 4GB DDR3 128GB SSD/500GB 5400RPM HDD model with a small I/O for people that really just want to use Safari, Pages, iMessage, and other low power tasks in the Mac ecosystem.
