Apple Watch, Mac Book Air Retina and Apple TV: summary of the conference tonight

It is
in September that we were able to discover the Apple Watch for the first
times. Very quickly, we realized that Apple had kept a
part of mystery and many questions arose.

Several months later, it is finally the time for answers. This evening,
During the conference, Tim Cook and his team gave us many details
on the functioning of the Apple that we were able to discover this time in all
The seams. Features, apps and so on have been revealed.

But the watch was not the only star of the evening since, as planned,
Apple also took advantage of today's keynote to lift the veil on a
Mac Book Air Retina highly anticipated.

If you have not followed the conference tonight or you want you
Dive again in the announcements of the day, here is what it takes
retain :

Panorama to start and lower price for the Apple TV

To start the conference, Tim Cook has focused on the HBO channel that
appears in the Apple TV box. HBO is in particular sex and the
City or Game of Thrones The CEO of the chain was even there for
Announce a new subscription service for our friends
Americans.

We were entitled to a trailer of Got which I would say nothing to avoid
Spoiling. Just know that there are deaths ...

For the rest, let's talkApple TV. Apple has chosen to drop
The Apple TV price which has still sold 25 million copies.
Apple TV goes to 79 euros.

Then came the time to talk a little iPhone to greet sales
exceptional of the latest models that we learn that99 % of

IPhone and health at the service of medical research

After quickly passing on Carplay and Home Kit. It was time to
talk about medical research. Researchkit has been announced. The goal is to
transform the iPhone and health into diagnostic tools for diseases like
Parkinson, diabetes, etc. The demo shows the iPhone using the screen, the microphone
To pass the tests directly with the iPhone, measure and collect
information and then transmit it to researchers.

Asthma, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and other diseases
are also concerned. Obviously, this function is also limited
In the US. Obviously it is the user who decides to participate and the data
are not seen by Apple.

This new tool should change the scale of studies that can more
easily touch the people concerned.

A great novelty at Apple, Researchkit is open source. It will be distributed
Next month even if first 5 apps are available from
Today.

A new Mac Book Air way Retina

With its new Mac Book Air, Apple simply wants to reinvent the
portable. The machine is ultra fine and corresponds to what rumors had
anticipated. We find in particular the keyboard which occupies the entire lower part of
The machine. Apple even invented a new 'butterfly' mechanism to increase
The hitting comfort.

Little surprise, this new Mac is available in three colors: gray,
Black and gold.

This new machine weighs barely 900 grams and 13.1 mm in its part
thicker. The screen measures and offers a resolution of 2304 x 1440
qualified as retina. Apple also imagined a new trackpad sensitive to
the pressure that allows you to use new gestures to interact with its
Mac.

To reach this level of finesse, Apple has treated each component. There
Motherboard is smaller, there is no more fan. However, there is
a lot of batteries to reach an autonomy of about a
daytime.

In terms of connection, Apple has a simple end, there is only one USB C port for
Everything: USB, DisplayPort, Recharge, HDMI and VGA. It is equipped with 8 GB of
RAM and a 256 GB SSD.

Count 1299 euros for the basic version and 1599 euros for the version
With a boosted processor. Availability announced for April 10. By the way
The MacBook Pro also wins the new trackpad and a whole battery
new.

Apple Watch: The star of the day

It was with great fanfare that we were able to rediscover the Apple Watch today.
Indeed, Tim Cook and his team were not stingy with details. We learn
for example that the watch communicates with the iPhone both in WiFi and
Bluetooth.

Let's continue with a major info: the Apple Watch gives
The time! It was also time to talk about the 'faces' that
allow you to personalize the time display according to your tastes:
Simple, richer, fun ... it's up to you to choose. You can choose to add or
Name the date, a time, the calendar ...

The glances allow access to a functionality
Specifies: Manage the calendar, launch music. Apple Watch allows
receive messages, but also telephone calls thanks to the microphone
integrated. Obviously, emails are also there.

For those who have friends who have the Apple WatchDigital
Touchis a kind of instant watch with watch watch. We
can send a little sound or a little drawing ...

Apple Watch is also a gadget for the most active since it
measures the activity and sends the user small alerts to invite him to
to move. According to Tim Cook it's a bit like having a wrist coach. She
incorporates a special app for training, so the watch can serve
to measure distance, heart rate, rhythm during
course.

Apple Watch also allows you to receive notifications, to discuss
With Siri, to look at her photos, but also to pay with Apple Pay.
Obviously, the apps developed with Watchkit should extend a little more
possibilities. For example, we mentioned the possibility of opening the door to
garage, or even a hotel room, to look at the news of its next flight,
to monitor the house remotely. Obviously, this requires some
Compatible accessories.

To use Siri no need to press, as when the iPhone is connected,
Just say 'say siri'.

Recall that the Apple Watch only works with an iPhone. That's on this
last that the apps must be installed. The iPhone must also
Turn under iOS8.2 which will also be available from
Today.

The autonomy of the watch is announced fora day or more
Exactly 18 hours.

At the level
prices, the least we can say is that there is something for all
Takes. Indeed, the first price is set at 349 euros. This is the watch
Sport version in its smallest version, that is to say 38 mm. Count
Then 399 euros for the 42 mm version.

Those who will opt for the Apple Watch with a steel case will have to
Office at least 649 and 699 euros respectively for the 38 mm and 42 version
MM. Depending on the choice of bracelet, the bill can amount to 1199 and 1249
euros.

Let's finish with the Apple Watch edition, that is to say with the 18 gold box
Carats and whose price starts at 11,000 euros to climb up to 18,000 (!).
Again, it's the size and choice of bracelet that increases the note.
Note that it will only be available in certain shops and quantities
limited.
