The iPhone Xs, iPhone Xs Max and the Apple Watch Series 4 are now available for pre-order. This means that folks in participating launch countries can place orders for the new devices on Apple's website, the mobile Apple Store app, or via one of Apple's third-party retail partners.
This will be my first year upgrading to the new iPhone as a member of Apple's iPhone Upgrade Program. Say what you want about the poor economics of the 'leasing' model, but with no need to list my old phone on eBay or fork over $1,000+, this may be one of my most stress-free iPhone upgrades ever. That being said, there are a few things worth noting if you're planning to upgrade to the new iPhone Xs or Xs Max using Apple's Upgrade Program.
One of the most innovative audio companies in the United States, Master & Dynamic, is out with its first pair of truly wireless earbuds, the all-new MW07s. Priced at $299, these AirPod competitors are available in four different colors and offer features that, at least on paper, make them worth considering.
The Apple Watch Series 4 features the first significant redesign since the first wearable device arrived in the spring of 2015. Naturally, those who have already seen the wearable device up close have plenty to say. Here's a look at some of the comments making the rounds.
Perhaps the most important new feature on the Apple Watch Series 4 is the introduction of an electrocardiogram sensor that will allow the device to monitor your heart to identify potential problems. When the wearable device was announced, Apple said it was granted a "de novo classification by the FDA." This isn't an approval, however, which we will explain here.
Apple's smartphone lineup for this year spans what's probably the widest iPhone price gamut ever, starting at just $449 for the entry-level 32GB iPhone 7 model from last year and going all the way up to the flagship $1,449 iPhone Xs Max with an insane half a terabyte storage.
It's been less than 24 hours since Apple's "Gather round" event. Already, we've seen a long list of first impression posts and videos arrive for two the biggest stars of the event, the iPhone Xs and iPhone Xs Max. Here's a rundown at what folks are saying about the company's newest flagship devices.
Like the iPhone X and 8 models, the new iPhone Xs family of smartphones from Apple are fast-charge capable: they go from completely dead to half the charge in 30 minutes. But contrary to some rumors, fast-charging an iPhone Xs is still out of the box and a $68 extra.
At the September 12th special event, Apple unveiled three new iPhones and a snazzy redesigned Apple Watch called the Series 4. Not only does it have a refreshed look and feel, but it comes with a slew of new features and works with all the old Apple Watch wrist straps you might have laying around.
In this piece, we’ll outline the Apple Watch Series 4 tech specs for your viewing pleasure:
Soon after the completion of its “Gather round” event, Apple released the GM version of watchOS 5. The new update for Apple Watch revealed four of the new watch faces that the company revealed during the Apple Watch Series 4 presentation. That’s right, these new watch faces are also coming to older Apple Watches, albeit with one important caveat.
Apple's new flagship device was unveiled on Wednesday, and although it won't be available in stores until September 21st, we are already planning on giving one away to one lucky iDB reader, with the support of our friends at iMobie.
To increase support for the latest screen sizes and technologies, Apple will soon stop accepting iPhone apps that don't take full advantage the native display resolution of iPhone Xs Max. Likewise, Apple Watch apps must support the new Apple Watch Series 4 hardware.
