As fans of the show continue to lament the end of popular TV series Breaking Bad, the guy behind the main character of Breaking Bad - Walter White - has already managed to wrangle himself a pretty decent new role - as the voice of one of Apple's new ad for the iPad Air. The device, which succeeds the fourth-generation Apple tablet as of next month, has already caused a bit of a stir among tech fans, and with Cranston's influential tone now a part of the ad campaign, expect the tactically-entitled slate to sell well in its first week on sale.
Yesterday was undoubtedly a pretty big day for iPad lovers. Not only did Apple dish up a refreshed iPad but it also changed its name to the relatively unpopular iPad Air. Alongside the new Retina iPad mini 2, the new iPad Air takes the original iPad and improves upon it in all kinds of ways.
Apple finally revealed the fifth-gen iPad Air at its special event yesterday, and as consumers begin to read the hands-on reviews and decide whether or not to make the purchase, the third party accessory makers are already well and truly on their game. Belkin, one of the foremost creators of cases and peripherals for Apple's wide range of products, has come through with a neat case for the iPad Air featuring a physical keyboard in a very slim line package.
The iPad Air and the new generation of iPad mini were both unveiled yesterday, and the press reaction, as always, had been ecstatic. Alongside the hardware improvements that these devices carry, there’s one more tradition that they, as before, have conformed to, which is a new wallpaper.
Apple’s much anticipated event today came to a close a few hours back, but left the blogosphere abuzz in its wake with news and views on all the great tech that the Cupertino-based company showcased, including OS X Mavericks, the new iPads, a fresh MacBook Pro, the behemoth that they call Mac Pro, along with software improvements like iWork and iLife. There was so much more that the event had to offer, and here, we’re going to provide a quick run down in case you missed the action earlier. The event is also available to stream online again, link for which is given at the end of this post.
Apple cannot resist coming through with the confusing names, and now we find ourselves with the iPad 2, fifth-gen iPad Air, iPad mini, and the new iPad mini with Retina display. With so many options both old and new, allied to Apple's almost arbitrary naming patterns, it may be a rather confusing state of affairs, so here, we take a close look at the four Apple tablets including features, specs and prices.
Apple’s newest hardware is here for a lot of device lineups, including the iPad, which has seen the launch of the new iPad Air and the second gen iPad mini with Retina display. The new devices are all shiny and cool, boasting the latest in hardware and software both, but that doesn’t mean we can forget the old ones just yet. Although the iPad 2 and iPad mini are rather old now, they’re still continuing, albeit at a lower cost for the first-gen iPad mini. The iPad 2 will continue to sell for a price of $399, while the first-gen iPad mini will continue to retail at a new starting price point of $299.
After iOS 7 and iOS 7.0.2, official direct download links for iOS 7.0.3 are live for iPhone 5s, 5c, 5, 4s, 4, iPad, iPad mini and iPod touch fifth-generation.
If techies ruled national holidays, today would be known as "iPad day," and for a good while now, we've been looking forward to the grand unveiling of the fifth-generation Cupertino slate. In today's announcement, the fruit company has not disappointed, and as well as bringing an entirely revamped, thinner and lighter overall design, the device is also more compact, boasts some tidy new display tech, and a brand new name: iPad Air.
Today has been a reasonably busy day for Apple, and among all of the new hardware and exciting products, the Cupertino, Calif.-based company has released updated version of its iWork and iLife apps for both iOS and OS X, covering iMovie, iPhoto, GarageBand, Keynote, Numbers and Pages. Although Apple has been doing its utmost to promote its in-house range of apps in recent times - no less by making them free to those picking up an iOS 7-enabled device - the apps themselves have felt as though they've been caught in a time warp, but with newly-designed icons, cleaner UI and plenty of features besides, Apple's famed work and play suites now look very much in-keeping with the recently-released iOS 7 and OS X Mavericks.
