People shared jokes and memes about Apple not announcing a new iPhone during special event.

Gadget lovers across the world watched Apple’s Time Flies Event Tuesday hoping to hear about a iPhone 12, but were left disappointed. Soon, social media was full of queries about why the iPhone 12 wasn’t mentioned and there were memes and jokes about the notable exclusion.

Instead of a new phone, the tech giant unveiled its latest watch models and a refreshed line of mid-range and low-cost iPads. The company announced the launch of a Watch SE, Watch Series 6, iPad Air, 8th generation iPad and some new services.

Given there was no mention of a new phone, many joked that they had already sold their previous iPhones in the hope of buying a new one. Many also poked fun at the company for failing to meet popular demand.
