The 5 biggest announcements from Apple’s October event

Okay, Apple fans. The show is over. Move along. Nothing more to see here.

Apple just wrapped up its last big press conference of 2016, and it was a doozy. It might now have had the flash of the iPhone 7 event and it might not have been as hotly anticipated as WWDC 2016 either. Apple enthusiasts around the world were still plenty excited to see Apple’s next-generation MacBook Pro though, and Apple appears to have delivered on the hype. Of course, a redesigned MacBook Pro wasn’t the only big announcement Apple made during its big October event on Thursday. In this post, you’ll find everything you need to know about all of Apple’s big announcements from the “Hello Again” event. More →

Apple’s big October event is about to start – here’s how to watch live

Apple’s big October event is about to start – here’s how to watch live

Microsoft started slow on Wednesday, but things picked up when Panos Panay took stage and showed off a brand new all-in-one desktop PC called the Surface Studio. Now, just one day later, it’s Apple’s turn to try to wow tech enthusiasts with its own look at the future of computing. Apple’s big iPhone 7 event this past September was obviously the highlight of the year for Apple fans, and the company’s iOS 10 unveiling to kick off WWDC 2016 in June was a close second. The company’s October event might not have generated quite as much buzz as either of those two earlier press conferences, but Apple’s Mac lineup is about to get its biggest refresh in years and fans can’t wait to see what’s in store.

The 7 biggest announcements from Microsoft’s October event

Microsoft just wrapped up one of its biggest event of 2016, and it was packed full of new product announcements and more. There actually wasn’t much buzz leading up to the event, all things considered, but that didn’t stop Microsoft from over-delivering and showing off a number of new products that Windows users are all-too eager to check out ahead of the holiday season this year. Beyond new Surface hardware, we also saw some cool new accessories and even some software-related announcements on Wednesday.

Did you miss the show? Don’t worry, we’ve rounded up everything you need to know about every single big announcement from Microsoft’s October event right here in this post. More →

The new Surface Book is more powerful than any MacBook

By October 26th at 11:20 AM

The new Surface Book is more powerful than any MacBook

When Microsoft announced the Surface Book last year, it was the most powerful thin laptop on the market. Forget the detachable screen, Microsoft managed to fit a discrete graphics card in something thinner than a 13-inch MacBook Pro.

This year, things are getting better. Microsoft has left the outside of the Surface Book the same, but it’s “doubled” the graphics capability and added a bunch more battery.

Microsoft’s AR future is buying chairs off the internet

Microsoft announced its Hololens augmented reality goggles years ago, but we’ve never quite been told what Microsoft thinks it will be used for. Well, at the event today in NYC, Microsoft finally gave us an answer. Augmented reality and the Hololens kit will be a game-changer for buying furniture online.

Everything we expect Apple to announce next week that isn’t a Mac

By October 21st at 11:36 AM

Everything we expect Apple to announce next week that isn’t a Mac

Apple’s biggest event of the year has obviously come and gone at this point, and millions of people have new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus handsets in their pockets right now. The annual iPhone press conference is always the Apple event that fans look forward to most each year, and a new iOS unveiling at WWDC is a close second. But 2016 isn’t over yet and Apple has one more event planned before the year is through.

This event isn’t anticipated quite as eagerly as other recent Apple events, mainly because Apple’s Mac lineup is expected to be the focus. Apple makes some great computers and the company’s next-generation MacBook Pro is getting some very nifty new features, but desktop and laptop computers aren’t quite as sexy as smartphones these days. Of course, Apple has more in store for us than just new Macs, so let’s take a look at what we can expect from next week’s press conference. More →

Get ready for a reimagined MacBook Pro and more: Apple sends invites for October event

Apple’s big October event wasn’t exactly a mystery, but now it’s officially official. The company on Wednesday sent invitations to the media for a press conference scheduled to take place on October 27th, which is next Thursday. The topic of conversation has not been shared, of course, but rumors suggest that a refreshed Mac lineup will be the focus. The title of Apple’s event — “hello again” — seems to support that theory; Apple’s Mac computers haven’t seen a major update since the company released it’s redesigned MacBook. More →

The 6 biggest announcements from today’s Google event

Google delivered on the promises made by rumors leading up to today’s big event, and it delivered an action packed press conference that was overflowing with major announcements.

We also knew that plenty more new hardware would be introduced during the show today — but we’re not sure anyone truly grasped the full scope of what Google had planned.

In this post, we’ll recap the event and go through all of the most important announcements Google made during its big event on Tuesday. More →
