![]() Tamara Scott: I come from a family of triathletes and long distance runners, and so the Apple Watch Ultra was really interesting to me because my family ends up using garment watches because they have that three-day battery life that’s going to take them through an Iron Man competition. That was really like, okay, now is my time to go out on a hike, because that is so cool that you don’t even need to have cell towers nearby, and it tells you exactly where to point your phone. I have always had a fear of hiking or camping or being out in the wilderness where I don’t have access to the hospital close by, or there’s an emergency, and I need someone to help if something were to go wrong.

Kaiti Norton: Last time we did one of these roundtables during WWDC (Worldwide Developers Conference), I made a comment about how these events after the pandemic are becoming live again, and I know that this was technically a live event. When you open that box from Apple, you get a presentation, and these events are like that, but just for the eyes. It also gives them a chance to showcase their advertising and the things that we love from Apple, which is the design, the beautiful images and the whole presentation.
