As the title says really.

Any new behaviour/love for the Dynamic Island in B1 ?

Maybe messages and/or email come down from there ?

Cheers

New flashlight animation. Can also adjust the brightness right there too. Swiping to the left and right makes the light more wide/narrow?

I might be wrong - but I do not think they said the words ‘Dynamic Island’ once during the entire presentation.

Getting 3D Touch vibes…

I think they realize how outmoded the "Dynamic Island" (aka gigantic notch) looks compared to the tiny almost invisible holepunches in Samsung phones. Almost as bad as the huge chin and forehead of the iPhone 8 era design in comparison to the iPhone X.

Slowly fazing it out in preparation for an all screen phone. I think they just needed it to sell iPhone 14 Pro's.... master marketing that was. The keynote made it seem so much cooler than it turned out to be.

Hopefully the huge notch on the phones and their laptops go away ASAP. It's ridiculous. The only thing cool about the "Dynamic Island" is Apple's talent in selling their lazy engineering as a feature.

I'm 90% Android (phone) guy but have an IP15 for when I get bored...and one of my favorite things on it is the Island, does a bunch of cool stuff, is well executed etc. Kinda surprised no Androids copied it even with little pinhole camera cutouts as the starting point...
