Ross Young: M4's MacBook Pro gets a quantum dot display Apple has applied quantum dots with a separate film on top of the LCD, which allows to improve the color reproduction of the new MacBook Pro and keep the proven technology of matrix manufacturing. This is the conclusion of analyst Ross Young. In terms of response speed LCD-display with a film on quantum dots is inferior to a full QD-OLED panel, but provides better brightness and contrast compared to previous IPS-matrixes. All MacBook Pro screens, including nano-textured models, have received the high-tech film. Rumor has it that the MacBook Pro will get a full OLED display in 2026 at the earliest. https://x.com/DSCCRoss/status/1857208745014776215

Apple's next innovation will be a smart home device The company will present the device in March. The product will be a standalone device without the need to connect an iPhone, will receive its own operating system and will be controlled by a touch-sensor and Siri. This is reported by Mark Gurman of Bloomberg. The tablet-like product, codenamed J490, has a 6-inch screen, a camera for FaceTime calls, and even a battery. The interface scales automatically as you get closer to the device. The insider describes the new operating system as something between watchOS and iOS on Standby. The familiar home screen with widgets is in place. Safari, Apple Music, and a notes app are pre-installed on the device, but there's no Appstore. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-12/apple-home-hub-detailed-apple-intelligence-homeos-square-ipad-like-design

Apple is selling a $450 book with the 100 best albums according to Apple Music In conjunction with publisher Assouline, the company has opened pre-orders for a limited edition compilation of the top 100 albums that were chosen by Apple Music editors this May. The cost of the book, which is higher than the iPhone SE 3, Apple is trying to justify the limited edition: only 1,500 copies will be produced. Each book comes in a translucent slipcase engraved with the Apple Music logo, the page edges are gold-plated, and a special number is hand-stamped inside and outside the edition so you won't forget its exclusivity. The 208-page compilation includes a brief description of each Top 100 album and cover artwork. https://eu.assouline.com/products/apple-music?ranMID=52938&ranEAID=TnL5HPStwNw&ranSiteID=TnL5HPStwNw-WFcpJ.k0XcObI4NRIKEbRA&country=GB

OLED displays in MacBook Air will have to wait even longer Apple has moved the release of the lightweight Air with OLED screens to 2028, - writes The Elec, citing sources in the supply chain of components. Previous insiders claimed that the new products will come out a year earlier. It is claimed that the company does not yet know how to solve two major problems: the high cost of OLED displays and the natural increase in the price of the Airs themselves after the installation of the new screen. Apple is waiting for the cost of OLED screens to come down when more manufacturers become available, but it looks like it's going to be a long wait. So far, only Samsung and LG are making screens of this type that meet the company's requirements. https://www.thelec.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=31036

The European Union will fine Apple β€˜for the first time’ for violating the Digital Markets Act The essence of the regulator's new claim: Apple did not allow third-party developers to leave links in the App Store that allow them to sell their applications more favourably. In this way, they bypass the shop's commission. According to antitrust regulators, this does not promote healthy competition. Foreign media call this fine β€˜the first’ (as it can be imposed until the end of November) under the current head of the European Commission Margrethe Vestager (someone decided to leave on a high note). Past fines have threatened to be levied only after March 2025. The regulator is still mulling over the exact amounts, as well as the timing of the β€˜first’ fine. This means that Apple can either comply with the EU's demand or appeal the penalty when it is imposed. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-05/apple-to-face-first-eu-fine-under-bloc-s-digital-markets-act?srnd=phx-technology

Apple will add its own Steam-like game shop to iOS The app will be integrated with a user's profile from Game Centre, and it will be possible to both buy games and view additional information on them. Judging by the description, the new shop will work similarly to Steam or PS Store. In one tab you can buy games from the App Store and Apple Arcade, in another - to see the selection of games from the editorial staff, in the third - tables of records, achievements and information about friends. Notifications about important game events and updates will be added (where else will you find out that Genshin has a new waifu). Among the potential features - integration of FaceTime and iMessage to communicate in the game app. Apple is also thinking about publishing an App Clips-based mini-game catalogue.

Apple has recognised a two-year lag in the AI industry Apple's internal research shows that ChatGPT is 25 per cent more accurate than Siri and can answer more questions,’ writes Mark Gurman. According to him, there's a perception within the company that Apple Intelligence is at least two years behind competitors' solutions. Despite this, Gurman believes the company can quickly level the gap, given the similar situation with the Maps app. He must be referring to the US domestic market, as outside of it, apps from local developers are much more capable. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2024-10-20/apple-s-latest-ipad-mini-highlights-ai-advantage-sonos-considers-new-headphones-m2hkz4mn?cmpid=BBD102024_POWERON&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&utm_term=241020&utm_campaign=poweron

Apple has released a special edition of the Beats Pill with Kim Kardashian Apart from the new Dark Gray and Light Gray colour schemes, the Beats Pill Kim Special Edition didn't receive any internal upgrades, so they sound like the regular Beats Pill 2024. The β€˜tablets’ come with a USB-C cable and a strap in a matching colourway. This is the third collaboration between the Kim and Beats brands, but it doesn't stand out from the rest. Prior to the Beats Pill, the companies' creative geniuses released the Studio Pro and Fit Pro headphones in Dune, Earth and Moon colours. β€˜Special Edition’ Beats Pill is already available on Apple's website for $150.

Apple's smart glasses and AirPods with cameras will be released in 2027 Apple seems to have realised how badly it screwed up Vision Pro and, in order not to waste billions in technology investment, is actively working on lightweight smart glasses,’ writes Mark Gurman. According to him, Apple's Meta* Ray-Ban analogue should be released in 2027. That same year, the company will introduce AirPods with cameras that never needed them. There's not much information about the new device: it will be glasses with screens, speakers and cameras that will analyse the environment using Visual Intelligence. Is Apple late in releasing actual devices? Very.

Apple will improve battery maintainability in iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max In future iPhones, Apple will use a new battery fixing technology. Now it is available only in the base iPhone 16 and 16 Plus. The battery on the younger models of the line is attached to a special adhesive, which loosens its grip if you apply an electric current to it. If you apply current to the tab on the battery and the ground screw at the charging port for a minute, the battery will detach itself. This is why batteries are firstly held firmly and secondly easily replaceable.

Apple lost $2.5 million by mistaking counterfeit iPhones for real ones For three years, two Chinese citizens have been carrying counterfeit iPhones to US service centres and Apple shops, demanding that they replace the defective device with a new one. To avoid being caught, the fraudsters forged serial numbers and IMEIs from real devices under warranty, and sent the grey iPhones to service centres from different mailing addresses registered in two different cities - Baltimore and Germantown, Maryland. Over three years, the criminals managed to send about six thousand of counterfeit smartphones to the service centres. As specified by the U.S. Customs Police, the entire batch got into the country from Hong Kong. Caught by carelessness: one of the fraudsters left a request for warranty service, indicating his real name. Both received four years in prison.

Phones may get a β€˜guest’ mode Apple has patented a guest mode for iOS. It will allow you to give an iPhone to a friend or a child without fear that the latter will spoil or delete something important. According to the patent, iPhone owners will be able not only to configure which applications and functions will be available to the guest, but also to make individual documents and photos available to all users. The patent suggests changing guest access settings on the fly, including by logging in on another device, such as a second iPhone or iPad.
