Apple Discussion Thread - iPad Air 2, iMac 5K Retina, OS X 10.10 out

[Mr Josh 3]

Rumored iWatch video: http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNzc1NDg2NjIw.html

 

So excited to get my hands on an iPhone 6 4.7 inch! Bad thing is we'll probably have to wait about 2 months for that. Philippines suck.

I have to say that design isn't really Jony Ive-ish. Tuesday is close

OMG I didn't know this thread existed! I have so many questions

Go ahead :thirst:

I want to know if MacBook prices go down when a new model is announced?

Answered you in the other thread, nope.

the way the person flicks their hand after every tap is annoying but here's a supposed iPhone 6 video:

I'm pretty sure it's for manual mode (they're adding it with iOS 8)

as of now there's no such thing as "manual mode" on iOS 8 besides being able to change the exposure, but the devs do have access to the camera api so i'm sure some app will be released with a manual feature on it

Still annoyed I had to get the 5. 

 

I'm going to wait for the iPhone 10 to come out, hopefully it's something great + I'll save enough money to get the 64gb.

Apple has extended invites for its upcoming September 9 media event to "top fashion editors and bloggers", reports Reuters. The news comes as the company is expected to unveil its first wearable device at the event, which has been frequently referred to as the iWatch.

 

Apple is forging closer ties to the fashion world as it plots its foray into the fertile field of wearable technology, trying to win over a critical crowd that may prove crucial to the success of consumer gadgets worn around the body.

Previous reports have suggested that the iWatch will be a "fashionable device", coming in a number of different materials and having a variety of band and face options. Other rumors have suggested that the device may also come in a number of screen sizes , and feature a curved, flexible display along with biometric sensors to track health-related metrics.

 

The report also states that Apple held a private, "first-of-its-kind event" last month at an Apple Store in New York to show a variety of fashion and retail apps to a group of style editors. Multiple fashion editors also told Reuters that the company has held other separate events in New York City for members of the fashion industry to review new products and meet the team behind them.

 

Apple has also hired a number of fashion industry experts in the past year, which include former Yves Saint Laurent CEO Paul Deneve who works on "special projects" and directly reports to CEO Tim Cook. Last October, the company also hired former Burberry CEO Angela Ahrendts, who is currently Apple's Senior Vice President of Retail and Online Stores.

 

While the iWatch is expected to be announced at the company's media event next week, reports have suggested that the device will not begin shipping until early next year.

Apple's upcoming wearable device, popularly known as the iWatch, is expected to be unveiled at Tuesday's media event, although a launch will reportedly come perhaps as late as early 2015. Part of the reason for the early unveiling may be to give third-party developers time to build apps for the new device, and 9to5Mac reports that will indeed be the case. Moreover, key third-party developers are said to have already been seeded with software development kit (SDK) tools to facilitate their work.
 

A small handful of high-profile social network and services companies with apps on the iPhone and iPad App Store have already been seeded with a pre-release version of the Apple SDK (Software Development Kit) for wearables under strict non-disclosure agreements.

The SDK was seeded “very recently†to these developers, and Apple likely wants to demonstrate some third-party wearable apps at Tuesday’s event, according to one source.

 

 

The iWatch is expected to work closely with the iPhone, but contain its own array of health and fitness sensors as well as near field communications (NFC) technology for a new mobile payments initiative. A host of new iOS 8 features such as HealthKit, HomeKit, and extensions are also expected to be key to the iWatch's functionality.

I highly doubt the iWatch is going to be shown.

It's not yet in mass production but they're most likely to announce it on Tuesday to create buzz and because it's way late (the original plan was to release it last year but many problems arose).

The camera is 13MP

Every Android manufacturer releases an upgrade every year too tho (Sony every 6 months), so I don't understand

If you used proper grammar and punctuation then maybe I would be able to understand it. No need to be rude.

well sorry but my englis is not perfect

I don't like the design at first watch, it doesn't look classy like the past iPhones post 4... Hope the props can mask its design.
