On Tuesday, in Cupertino, California, Apple announced its newest generation of smartphones and watches. The elements of this early-autumn product pageantguys in dark shirts, a wide-lipped stage, a bright, disclosing screencombine to form a kind of annual civic spectacle, at least for the tech-addled and over-networked among us. Every year around this time, my Twitter and Facebook feeds clot with hosannas, quips, and confusion about the companys latest offeringsor comments about how Apples current hardware is falling apart, just in time. This years most dramatic unveiling, executed by Philip Schiller, Apples senior vice-president of worldwide marketing, was the iPhone X, whoch will retail for nine hundred and ninety-nine dollars, and whose most-discussed feature is called Face I.D.
