Apple "Gather Round" Prediction Results

Apple held their "Gather Round" event just last week and I made my predictions for the event. Let us look at how well I did.

Correct Predictions

• New 5.8-inch iPhone model - iPhone XS
• New larger OLED iPhone model - iPhone XS Max
• New Apple Watch Model - Series 4
• OS 12 release date being announced - Available Today
• HomePod software update - Available Today
• New 6.1-inch LCD iPhone model - iPhone XR
• New Apple Watch being thinner - It is thinner
• New Apple Watch bezels being smaller - The bezels are smaller
• Apple Watch battery being the same - It is the same, 18 hours

Incorrect Predictions

• New iPad Pros having Face ID, if iPads announced - No New iPads
• New AirPods Case, if AirPower mat released - No AirPower Mat
• New iPad Pros, having reduced bezels - No New iPads
• AirPower Mat Released - No AirPower Mat
• New iPad Pros Announced - No New iPads
• New iPad Pros, being same physical size - No New iPads
• New iPad Pros, having same screen size - No New iPads
• New AirPods - Did not happen
• New Macs - No New Macs

Overall my predictions were 50% correct. That is better than my WWDC predictions which were only 34.8% correct. Maybe I will do better next time, but this is an improvement. For the things that were not announced, the iPads, AirPods, and Macs, maybe there will be another event next month.
