News & Reviews:   Apple

It seems that Apple Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo recently stated that Apple will be planning to release their mixed reality headset in the year 2022. While not much is known in regards to the Malaysia release date, it does give us a better idea of what to expect when it is available in the local market.

Not only the 2021 iPad Pro has arrived with mini-LED, but Apple's latest tablet is also surprisingly equipped with the powerful M1 chip. Now, the iPad Pro is basically equally powerful as the M1 MacBooks and it brings us to the question of whether Apple will merge these products one day. However, Apple executives have responded to the doubt by saying the company currently has no plan for it.

Did you stay up late to catch the Apple event? The company unveiled a bunch of new products, including a new iMac and Magic Keyboard. But if you're thinking of buying just the new keyboard, there's a caveat you need to take note of.

Today, Apple made a big announcement on the new M1 iPad Pro and colourful iMacs. Besides that, the company also announced some mini news such as the long-rumoured Apple Card and AirTag, as well as a new iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini in purple finish. Here's everything you need to know about the things they announced earlier.

The market performance of smartphone companies in Q1 2021 has been revealed by Strategic Analytics.

Some people may think that the Apple App Store is a lot more secure than other platforms. Of course, no system is flawless. In fact, someone recently found a scam app on the App Store, one that was disguising itself as a mobile game.

Apple has announced its upcoming event yesterday and it's scheduled to go live on 21st April (20th April in Pacific Time Zone).

While technology continues to advance exponentially, so are scammers looking for new ways to trick people. In this news, it looks like it just happened from the West on an Apple user by a "tech support" scam method that's not heard often. However, it appears that this tactic has been going on for years.

After seeing the news of someone developing sensors to detect the COVID-19 virus, we have a new one today saying that Apple is researching to find out if the Apple Watch could notice someone has contracted the virus. Comparing these two methods, it is no doubt that the one using a sensor is more advanced and will not have to wait until a person is sick. As the sensor will not be available at the moment, it is still nice to know that the current tech product can provide help to users during the pandemic.

Apple has been using the same notch design on iPhones since the release of the iPhone X. While many Android phones have switched to something more appealing like a punch-hole cutout, Apple might have realized that it's time to make changes as well. Instead of the design, this year's iPhones are said to come with a smaller notch compared to their predecessors. Today, some live images of the screen protectors for the upcoming iPhones have revealed how the new notch could look like.
