Apple Event 2024: iOS 18 Eagerly Awaited

It would be hard to ignore the impact of iOS 18 this year as it not only brings the new features but also becomes the gateway to AI for Apple users. The beta versions of iOS 18 have shown us the potential but now Siri and other features will benefit from these upgrades.

Apple Event 2024: The Big iPhone Question

With the launch of the new iPhone 16 series many people would be eyeing the older iPhone 15 Pro or 15 Pro Max models if they want AI. If not, they can even get the iPhone 15 models, but is that the right move to save you some money?

If your usage is basic, these old iPhones are not a deal breaker. If you like to flaunt the latest, then you’re obviously picking up the new iPhones. The launch event is getting closer and now we have t-30 minutes left for Cook to speak from the Apple Park.

Apple Event 2024: The X Apple Watch Unveiling

Apple Watch could get the 10 or X treatment this year as it marks a big moment for the company’s popular smartwatch lineup.

Apple Glowtime Event 2024 Live: New AirPods 4 Launching

iPhone 16 Launch LIVE: New iPhone Colours

Apple has realised that new colours bring new excitement among buyers and this year is likely to be any different. The iPhone 16 Pro could get a new Desert Titanium variant, while we could see brighter colours like blue making its way to the regular iPhone 16 models.

Apple Event 2024: Time For New AirPods Max

Apple has some products that are yet to be offered the USB C upgrade and that could happen with the AirPods Max headphones at the event. The company is also reportedly going to offer some hardware upgrades for better audio and improve noise cancellation. Will all these push the price of the Max further? You bet!

PS: 2 hours to go for the big launch event.

Apple Event 2024: Why Siri 2.0 Needs To Work

Apple’s Siri journey has been sketchy and not very Apple-like over the years. The new Siri 2.0 with the help of AI promises the Glowtime but it needs a lot more to become an equal to ChatGPT 4.0 and Gemini from Google.

Apple Chief Tim Cook has also added to the pre-event rituals with his customary post on X which says, Apple Park is glowing.

Apple Event 2024: Will AI Push Upgrade Cycle?

Apple and other tech giants are banking on AI to fetch them more growth. The iPhone 16 lineup will support AI and the company is offering it on all the new models. Analysts claim the new iPhones could push a upgrade cycle like never before but will Apple have the AI features roll out in quick time? We’ll get those details in over 2 hours from now.

– iPhone 15 Pro

– iPhone 15 Pro Max

– iPhone 16

– iPhone 16 Pro

– iPhone 16 Pro Max

So, if you have been using the iPhone 15 or 15 Plus models, tough luck and maybe it’s time to upgrade this year.

Apple Event 2024: iPhone 16 Prices Leaked

We’re still a few hours away from the launch event, but these are the leaked iPhone 16 series prices from Apple:

Apple Event 2024: New iPads Incoming?

The short answer is no. Apple is unlikely to announce any new iPads or the iPad Mini at the iPhone 16 launch event this evening, and for that we might have to wait until October when the new M4-powered Macs will roll out.

Apple Event 2024: No Watch Ultra 3?

Apple Event 2024: End of The iPhone 15 Pros?

Reports have suggested that Apple could remove the iPhone 15 Pro model from its lineup after the new 16 series launches. Considering that these two old models can run the AI features, we’ll be mightily shocked to see that happen. We’ll know about it in over 3 hours from now.
