Apple just lost a top design talent. Meta has hired Alan Dye, who was the head of Apple's human interface design team. The company is filling his position with Stephen Lemay, who CEO Tim Cook told Bloomberg "has played a key role in the design of every major Apple interface since 1999." Before being poached by Meta to become its chief design officer, Dye worked at Apple since 2006, where he oversaw projects including Liquid Glass and Vision Pro.

Instead, the glitz and glamor came with the introduced with a theatrical flair, balanced on a single finger at the Steve Jobs Theater to a chorus of "oohs and ahhs." Notably, Apple is branding the iPhone Air as a first-generation product; it's not the iPhone 17 Air or iPhone 17S. Even then, the device offers the "power of Pro," a phrase that we're not talking about enough.
