COMMEMORATIVE EDITION - Over the past several months, Apple has been on the brink of becoming the first technology company in the world to reach a trillion-dollar market capitalization - a feat many thought would be impossible.

As Apple prepares to send macOS Ventura into public beta later this month, it’s high time to take a closer look at some of the features coming to the operating system later this year. The update will introduce valuable productivity tools and makes our Macs even more powerful.

At this year’s WWDC, Apple lifted the lid on what’s next for the iPhone as it unveiled iOS 16, introducing a whole host of new features designed to make our devices even smarter and more capable than ever before. From customized Lock Screens to the iCloud Shared Photo Library, the update further refines the world’s most advanced smartphone operating system.

At this year’s WWDC, Apple lifted the lid on the next generation M-series chip: M2, which extends the remarkable features of M1, with industry-leading power efficiency, a unified memory architecture, and custom technologies that unlock a whole host of possibilities for the Mac.

This year’s bumper Worldwide Developers Conference focused not only on what was next for macOS, watchOS, iPadOS, and iOS, but also lifted the lid on new hardware from the Cupertino company, with Apple showing off the new MacBook Air, powered by the M2 chip.

Apple’s smart home platform, HomeKit, is designed to allow consumers to control a whole host of internet-enabled devices from the comfort of their Apple Watch or HomePod, from their thermostats to CCTV cameras. As new technologies continue to innovate in the space, Apple must also keep up and create tools and platforms that push the world further forward.

It’s been more than a year since Apple discontinued its HomePod speaker, and though its mini successor has helped the Cupertino company increase its smart home market share, there’s still a long way to go. Apple is now planning to reinvigorate the space by launching an all-new HomePod with advanced capabilities - and rumors suggest could arrive this year.

With an overhauled MacBook Air reportedly just around the corner, experts are gearing themselves up for a new generation of computing. Likely to sport the M2 chip and an all-new design, the upcoming MacBook Air refresh could be one of the most significant to date.

As Apple officially launches its Self Service Repair program in the United States, consumers can now purchase genuine Apple parts and tools and fix broken iPhones and Macs, setting a new standard for repairs and empowering consumers. The scheme offers real environmental benefits, cutting down on waste and extending the lifespan of the world’s most beloved tech.

Orkut might not have been as popular as MySpace or Tumblr back in the day, but the social network, once owned by Google, boasted an impressive 300 million users at its peak, with more than half in Brazil. Eight years after the website was shuttered, its original founder has vowed to be “building something new” under the brand for a new generation of consumers.

Final Cut Pro is one of the most advanced organizing tools of any professional video editing application and helps filmmakers tell their stories in whole new ways The Social Network and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo are just two blockbusters edited on Final Cut Pro - but in recent years, Apple has reduced updates to its software, prompting some users to complain.

With WWDC 2022 just around the corner, the rumor mill has gone into overdrive in regards to what’s next for iOS and iPadOS, with journalists sharing their wishes and predictions for the next-generation software. In the months ahead, Apple will further refine the world’s best smartphone and tablet operating systems and offer users even more valuable features.

The Worldwide Developers Conference is one of the most hotly-anticipated events on any tech journalist’s calendar, offering Tim Cook and Co an opportunity to show the world what lies ahead for iOS, macOS, and more. This year’s WWDC kicks off on June 6 in Cupertino, and with long-rumored products expected to be unveiled, it could be the biggest event yet.

Since its original launch back in 2009, Angry Birds has become one of the most beloved mobile gaming franchises, setting new standards for modern gaming on iOS and Android. After a string of successful offshoots, like Angry Birds Rio and Angry Birds Evolution, the original title is back on iOS, with a new premium version offering the full gaming experience.

As Apple continues to ramp up its subscription services to bolster revenue streams, the Cupertino company is now reportedly considering moving into the hardware subscription sphere, offering some of its most iconic products, like iPhones and iPads, on monthly plans. The scheme could revolutionize the way we purchase tech and unlock new possibilities.

With Apple reportedly ditching its plans to launch a successor to the 27-inch iMac Pro, professional users now have the choice between the 24-inch M1 iMac and the new Mac Studio with Studio Display for the desktop set-up. Whilst the former is ideal for emails, data entry, and basic editing, the latter is a powerhouse and takes Mac computing to a new level.

At Apple’s 'Peek Performance' event, held virtually this March, the company lifted the lid on its next-generation iPad Air, bringing some of the high-spec features from the iPad Pro to the consumer-focused tablet. The direct-from-Mac M1 chip and super-fast 5G connectivity make the latest iPad Air even more of a compelling offer for students, families, and professionals.

Apple tore up the rulebook at its March 'Peek Performance' event, introducing a range of new products including the Mac Studio and a stunning new Studio Display. As well as a refreshed iPad Air and iPhone SE, the company lifted the lid on the M1 Ultra processor, giving users another reason to lock themselves into the Apple ecosystem for powerhouse performance.

As Apple continues its expansion of TV+, a $4.99 per month streaming service, the company is reportedly considering investing in live sports content to attract an entirely new audience. Now reports suggest that live music could also play a role in the future of TV+, giving subscribers even more value for money and helping Apple differentiate in a crowded market.

Since the launch of Apple Pay, back in 2014, Apple has changed the way we shop and spend money, with subsequent refinements and additions like Face ID and Apple Card that have made shopping even more convenient. Now, the Cupertino company plans to add yet another string to its bow and make iPhone and Apple Pay truly invaluable for merchants.

There’s no denying that SpaceX and its Starship program is a game-changer for the future of space exploration, designed to carry hundreds of people to the Red Planet. This month, Elon Musk took to the stage to announce the latest updates to the project, signaling that Starship is full steam ahead, bringing us even closer to a whole new world far beyond Planet Earth.

There’s no denying that SpaceX has revolutionized the space sector, transforming the way we think about interplanetary spaceflight and the future of humankind. With SpaceX Starship scheduled for its first full-stack flight in late February, it’s time to review the phenomenal progress it’s made so far, and see where it’s headed next.

One of the reasons why so many consumers and professionals choose to make the switch to Apple is the seamless integration between its ecosystems, from macOS and watchOS to iOS and iPadOS. A new Universal Control update takes these integrations to even greater heights offering a natural, initiative way to get more out of your devices at work and at home.

Music has helped to transform Apple in recent decades, from the launch of the original iPod to modern developments like Apple Music, the HomePod mini, and AirPods Pro. For music fans, the Cupertino company offers a great deal, and the chances are you don’t know about all of the hidden features, tools, and accessories Apple offers to delve deeper into music.

The pandemic has touched virtually every aspect of our lives, not least the way we work. Gone are the days of hour-long commutes and endless meetings; instead, we work from home or hot desk, relying on apps to keep us productive and connected. It can be tough to choose the right device - with both the MacBook Pro and iPad Pro offering unique benefits you won’t find anywhere else. Comparing the two will allow you to find the right machine.

2021 was a big year for Mac. With huge innovations across the iMac and MacBook range, Apple pushed ahead with its transition to custom silicon chips, offering record-breaking performance. The last piece of the puzzle is the 27-inch iMac, and with rumors suggesting Apple will give the device the Pro moniker, good things could be just around the corner.

Serving as a Christmas gift to space fans the world over, NASA launched its revolutionary new space observatory, the James Webb Space Telescope, on December 25, from South America. The launch marks the start of one of the most anticipated missions in years and could change the way we study astronomy and both the history and the future of our planet.

With 2021 coming to a close, all eyes are on where Apple is headed next. This year has been a bumper one for the Cupertino company, breaking records and delivering cutting-edge hardware and software to users. The path ahead, however, could be even more exciting.

Whilst Apple has undoubtedly faced challenges this year amidst the coronavirus pandemic, the Cupertino company has continued to innovate in a number of key fields, pushing forward its vision for best-in-class hardware and software. With iPhone 13, the M1 Max MacBook Pro, AirTags, the all-new iMac, and a bunch of iPad improvements, 2021 was a huge year.

As Apple continues to expand its music service and offer consumers more functionality than ever, the company’s Apple Music Voice Plan, which rolls out with iOS 15.2, sets a precedent for content consumption. It sees Apple pivot to a future that’s both seamless and screenless.

We might be headed towards the most wonderful time of the year, but before we do, we have to jump through the usual hurdles of buying gifts for our loved ones. If you’re struggling to come up with ideas, our 2021 Christmas Gift Guide will give you some food for thought.
