Apple Release Roundup: iPhone 6, iWatch, 12.9-inch iPad and More
September 9, 2014 is an important date in the world of technology primarily because that is the date that Apple will supposedly launch its new line-up. Apple, the tech giant, is expected to announce and release of the much-awaited iPhone 6, but it may not be the only thing they will be introducing. Let us take a look at what Apple could possibly be lifting off this season.
The main focus will be on the most anticipated iPhone 6. It is said to be coming in two sizes; the 4.7-inch model and the 5.5-inch model. The 4.7-inch model is a bit of a size increase compared to the iPhone 5s' 4-inch screen.
Another device that they may launch is a wrist-wearable device. Rumors are circulating that this may either be called the iWatch or iTime. In terms of appearance, even though most people are assuming that it would look like a watch, it may actually look more like a bracelet. With Apple's innovative nature, it will definitely be more than just a watch. 9to5Mac has mentioned that Kobe Bryant, as well as other famous sports figures, were tapped as resources by Apple to test the fitness and health features of the wearable device. Aside from tracking time, health and fitness, it is also assumed to be capable of controlling certain devices in your home. It will be making full use of the phrase: "the internet of things."
There are small suggestions here and there that new versions of the iPad Air and iPad Mini will be launched as well. Bloomberg suspects that the screen of the new versions may be have special anti-glare coatings. Also, it may go biometric and and put finger sensors on it.
Last but not the least, Apple is also said to launch a giant iPad, which may come with a 12.9-inch screen.
