Today, Apple kicked off its annual event with the new Apple Watch Series 9, Apple Watch Ultra 2 and Apple Watch SE. The Apple Watch SE wasn't talked much at the presentation but that's because it has similar functions as the other two but at a more affordable price range. Here's what you need to know about the features and prices.

Microsoft recently announced that Windows 11 is authorized to run on M1 and M2 chipset powered Mac laptops. This is done through the Parallels Desktop version 18 however, they made no guarantees for games that rely on DirectX 12 or OpenGL 3.3 or greater. 

iOS 16 finally brought back the iPhone’s battery percentage indicator after a 5-year absence, though it was missing from certain ‘smaller’ iPhones with Face ID during launch simply because there was not enough space. Thankfully, it has been rectified by Apple and now, all iPhones with a notch or display cutouts have this feature.

Apple during its Far Out event today launched a slew of new products, including a refresh to the world’s best-selling smartwatch for 7 years running, the Apple Watch. These include the new Apple Watch Series 8, Apple Watch SE and for the first time ever, the Apple Watch Ultra which we are covering in a separate article here.

Previously, we reported that current iPads that are not powered by the M1 SoC will not be getting the ‘Stage Manager’ feature in iPadOS 16 due to certain limitations. However, recently a delve into the OS code on older iPads show that the feature can actually be turned on internally but it is disabled by Apple.

Apple has made its iPad lineup one step closer into becoming a full-fledged computer replacement with iPadOS 16 with features such as Stage Manager that allows for next-level multitasking on a tablet. Well, the next iPad Pro lineup may make those multitasking tasks even smoother as they are touted to be powered by the latest Apple Silicone, the M2 SoC.

The recently held WWDC 2022 event by Apple introduced a lot of new features and improvements for iPhones and iPads via iOS 16 and iPadOS 16 respectively. For the latter, among the most notable addition has got to be the ‘Stage Manager’ feature which allows users to resize apps into overlapping windows, a feature similarly found on new macOS Ventura.

While this new addition makes the iPad one step closer to being a computer replacement in terms of software, it seems that only iPads that are powered by the M1 SoC will have the privilege to get the feature. This is because Apple has clarified that iPads that run on its mobile A-series bionic chips will not get Stage Manager, which includes the iPad Pro 2020 which is only 2 years old.

Reliable Apple leaker Mark Gurman yesterday revealed that the next-generation iPad Pro might be unveiled as early as this September. According to his latest ‘Power On’ newsletter, the Bloomberg columnist said that the new iPad Pro will be powered by Apple’s upcoming ‘M2’ SoC.

Furthermore, Gurman also claimed that the new iPad Pro lineup will feature MagSafe charging; a first in any iPads. This new charging mechanism is similar to the MagSafe utilised in iPhones rather than the one reintroduced in the latest 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros.

Apple’s iPad Pro lineup could potentially see a shake up in the new future as the company is reportedly adding more variants for both the 11-inch and 12.9-inch models. According to a report published by reliable tipster Ross Young, it seems that OLED panels will be coming to the iPad Pro, essentially being the first iPads to sport the display technology.

The highest-end tablet that Apple makes, the iPad Pro was first introduced in 2015 with a massive 12.9-inch LCD display, followed by an 11-inch model released the very next year. In its subsequent iterations, both the iPad Pro 11-inch and 12.9-inch sports LCD displays with 120Hz refresh rates; one of the first tablets in the world to do so.

You probably have gotten tired of the news reporting how the iPhone SE 3 will look, but we still have to tell you this one. Earlier, a Japanese source surfaced and claimed that the upcoming budget iPhone won't have any design changes but will use the latest the A15 Bionic chip. However, this new information totally conflicts with the previous one by saying Apple will give it a design upgrade after all.
