Speculation and rumors may be put to rest and confirmed, respectively, as Apple is to unveil some of their secrets on March 15th. Several sources have confirmed that six weeks from now, Apple will finally tell the public itself just what it has been working on in the past months.
While recent headlines have been talking about numerous patents regarding virtual reality handsets, contact-less controls and other devices that will surely attempt to revolutionize the technology that we see these days, the event on Tuesday, March 15th will most likely not go up to that scale. Considering that all of the above are simply patented concepts that we may or may not see for a few more years to come, here is what is expected of Apple to shed some more light on.
The iPhone 5se
One charm that the pre iPhone 6 models had was the smaller scale size that they came in. While these days, large displays and smartphone tablet hybrids fill the shelves, finding a smaller device that is still up to date with the current technology is already asking a lot from phone manufacturers.
That is why Apple is apparently planning to incorporate the latest technology they own in a smaller, 4-inch device dubbed the iPhone 5se. Compared to the original iPhone 5 that came out in 2013, the iPhone 5se is a long leap ahead – featuring an A8 processor, a new motion coprocessor, iPhone 6s’ 3D Touch feature and either 16 or 64 GB capacity models.
iPad Air 3
While early rumors suggested that the iPad 3 was going to aim to become a hybrid tablet with an over 12” display, it turned out into what was later revealed to be the iPad Pro. However, it seems that Apple is still hopping on the stylus bandwagon and bringing the Apple Pencil along with it. Furthermore, the new iPad Air 3 will come with game changing specifications too – an A9 processor to replace the A8X found in the older models and up to 4 GB of RAM memory.
On top of that, there is also a rumor suggesting that users would also get a 4K display that could extent to even higher resolutions than the iPad Pro – up to 3840 x 2160. And to wrap it up, the iPad Air 3 promises to have a much better camera than its predecessor too.
Apple Watch Bands
There are also some small updates coming the iWatch’s way with this occasion, as it’s expected to see an entire new selection of bands coming for the wearable, including rubberized sport band colors, a new Hermes band, a space black version of the Milanese Loop and some other variations made of different models. The watch itself, however, doesn’t seem to be getting any attention from a hardware point of view for the time being.
