Today, the iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro, and iPhone 13 Pro Max went up for pre-order. While Apple's shipping windows have slipped back to October for the majority of variants, third-party retailers might still be able to get your new phone to you on launch day. Which is September 24. And if you needed some extra time to make a decision on the matter, Apple's here to help try and convince you to upgrade.
While Apple champions all sorts of things, including individual privacy, user security, being a positive element for the environment, and no software backdoors which could give government agencies too much access. The reality is, if it wants to work in certain markets, then it must abide by local laws, regulations, and even demands. Which can lead to some noteworthy changes.
Apple's California Streaming event wrapped up pretty quickly, all things considered. The company unveiled a handful of new products, including the iPhone 13 lineup. But arguably the star of the show was the brand new, oft-rumored, all-new redesigned iPad mini.
If you're in the market for a new Apple Watch, and you've got your sights set on the less expensive SE variant, then you're in some luck. At least, as far as the charging cable inside the box is concerned. Nothing is different about the watch itself, but there is an important change to how you'll charge the smartwatch.
One of the best parts of the brand new, redesigned iPad mini is the fact it features an A15 Bionic processor. That's the newest chip from Apple, and it's also what's present in the iPhone 13 lineup, too. However, if you were thinking the speeds would be the same across devices, it turns out that isn't the case.
Way back in February of this year, Microsoft announced that its newest version of its ridiculously popular suite of productivity apps, Office, would launch sometime later in the year. And now, all these months later, and just a few weeks out from the newest version of Windows arriving, we now know when we'll get to install the new Office. And it just so happens to coincide with the launch of the new version of the company's desktop OS.
Apple is not a stranger to any sort of legal action against it. And that, unfortunately, includes class-action lawsuits brought against it by its own customers. That usually happens when it comes to some kind of perceived issues with Apple's business practices and/or hardware issues with its devices. Which is the case this time around as well.
Earlier this week, Apple unveiled the brand new Apple Watch Series 7. There was a lot of speculation surrounding this new smartwatch, and the final result didn't necessarily match up with the expectations built by rumors. Still, the new Apple Watch does offer some important changes from the previous model.
Hot on the heels of finding out just how much RAM the new iPhone 13 lineup has, we now know how much is tucked inside the newest iPad models, too. Of course, this isn't official, as Apple isn't going out of its way --as usual-- to tell anyone just how much RAM is in these products. But, considering the source, it's all but confirmed.
When any new Android handset is revealed, it usually comes along with news about the amount of RAM tucked inside. Most manufacturers don't keep that information a secret, and usually it's a point of pride. However, that is most certainly not the case for Apple, as the company never typically talks about RAM at all.
AppleCare, and AppleCare+, has been around for quite some time. It's one of the most standard features for Apple's products up to this point. Apple spiced things up in 2018 by adding another option, AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss, to the mix. And now that special coverage option is available in a. couple of more regions.
There have been so many seeds of new entertainment planted for Apple and Apple TV+ over the last year or so, it's good to finally see them bearing fruit. For instance, one of the various bilingual series coming to the video streaming service now has a premiere date. That's after we first heard about it back in December of last year.
