News & Reviews:   Apple

As you know, Apple released iOS 15 recently, which introduced some new features. Not a lot of people have upgraded to the new version yet, as users might not consider it worth upgrading to. But the new upgrade for the AirPods Pro could be useful for some people.

The iPhone 13 series could be better than what Apple has claimed. According to the latest report, the A15 Bionic chip that powers all the models is actually more capable than what is written on paper. After conducting the test, 12% gain was found over Apple's own claim of the A15 being 50% faster.

Today, Apple just sent out some new features in Apple Keynotes, Pages, and Numbers. According to the Apple newsroom, these new tools are made for iPhone, iPad and Mac users easier to work. Here are some new updates that you can use on iWork.

If you remember back in May, a Brazillian actually won a lawsuit against Apple for not including a charger in the iPhone 12 series box. This is due to Brazil's consumer protection regulator body, Procon-SP accused Apple of "misleading advertising".

If there is one thing that Android fans don't about Apple iPhones, it is that the devices don't come with a USB-C port for years. However, that could change as the European Commission has just submitted a revised Radio Equipment Directive. This means that it will make a new standard port for all smartphones, tablets, cameras, headphones, portable speakers and even handheld gaming consoles. 

Epic Games might have claimed that Fortnite wouldn't be returning to the Apple App Store, but that wouldn't be possible anyway. The company allegedly pledged to adhere to Apple's guidelines if its developer account was reactivated. Unfortunately, Apple doesn't have any intentions of doing so.

In case you missed it, iOS 15 has been released on 21 September at 1 AM. As a new software upgrade from iOS 14, this is quite a big file to download (approximately 3GB) so it's best to download and install it overnight. But anyway, I have taken the liberty to explore what's new and there are some impressive features to take note of.

Today, Apple's latest iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 are now available to download and install. As usual, if you own an iPhone or iPad that are eligible for the upgrade, you may head over to the Settings > General > Software Update to get started. 

Other than several new devices announced at the last Apple event, the latest operating system updates including iOS 15, iPadOS 15, and watchOS 8 had made their appearances as well. They are also going to be the earliest "products" to be released to the public. At 1 am on 21 September, users of Apple devices in Malaysia will get to enjoy the latest build of those mentioned operating systems. 

If you recall, the great Epic Games vs Apple saga has been drawing to a close in recent weeks. About 2 weeks ago, Apple reached an agreement with developers to allow certain apps to promote alternate payment methods. Now, the latest court ruling was announced and it isn't quite what both parties wanted.
