It is made to wait, and a lot, but finally arrived. Sure to be late for a watch might not seem like a good start, but Apple (and more generally analysts) are convinced that it will be an unprecedented success. The Cupertino company, live from San Francisco as usual, presented Apple Watch, the smart watch to match the iPhone.
“Ever since I was a child I dreamed of call with the clock. This is a revolution, “he announced from the stage at the Yerba Buena Center a happy Tim Cook. Satisfied but perhaps a little ‘careless, since the first smartwatch have come out on the market now about two years ago. So maybe, again, it is not of revolution. But it is still a high-level device that we are talking about, because Apple Watch has all it takes to succeed in what the Gear Samsung and others his “colleagues” were not able to. And that is transforming the smartwatch in a design object, desirable and fashionable. Because, as it was for the new versions of the iPhone and iPad, Apple Watch is first of all beautiful. It will be available in three versions: the Sport with aluminum case, the classic version with cash in a special steel alloy (which is durable but light) and the luxury version, Edition 18K gold.
Two size available, with case 33 or 42 mm. The prices however vary greatly, depending on the strap: the “basic” version of Watch Sport costs $ 349, while that of the classic version, ranging from 549 to $ 1,049. For Edition instead we talk about anything but the price level, as to have a smartwatch with gold case must shell out around $ 10,000.
With Apple Watch you can make and receive calls, send or read SMS and email, view the notifications and take pictures. The real news that you can call even without iPhone if you’re near a Wi-Fi network. The contents of the iPhone will be on your wrist, it’s clocks can be connected together. Ah, then, among other things Apple Watch will also indicate the hour, and the Cupertino company says his smartwatch is able to do particularly well, with a margin of error of up to 50 milliseconds compared to UTC (Universal Time Standard ).
To navigate in Apple Watch, in addition to technology Force Touch on the Retina display, you can also use the crown side. Being an extremely “personal”, Apple Watch is fully customizable (by straps to the dial through the backgrounds), and doubles as a personal trainer, keeping track of daily exercise and user of its physical parameters, such as heartbeat.
ResearcKit. And it is health that Apple wanted to focus more. During the keynote in San Francisco, Tim and colleagues also presented ResearchKit, a platform that offers medical researchers the tools to deepen their studies, particularly on asthma, breast cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and Parkinson’s disease. The package will be offered free app right away on iOS. Cupertino there was keen to stress that the platform will be completely open source, that is, public and editable by anyone. Users using the app dedicated to health on Apple devices (most notably Apple Watch), will decide whether to share on ResearchKit data relating to its business, to help the medical community in the search.
The new MacBook. The company of the Apple, confirming the rumor of the day before, also unveiled new versions of the MacBook Pro and Air, the ultra-thin computer, showing the intent (yes, revolutionary) of bring the world of the PC to that of the tablet, and not vice versa. Because so far we have seen the tablet look like laptop, the new MacBook Air is the opposite, and bears more resemblance to the iPad. Starting from the colors: gold, silver and gray space. But above all, for weight and thickness: the new MacBook Air weighs less than a pound (200 grams only more of the first tablet of Apple) and is often only 13.1 mm. Apple has also worked extensively on the keyboard to make it even thinner (it is 34%) and reactive, and introduced the C-USB port, smaller and powerful.
In the new MacBook Pro instead strikes Retina display 13-inch ultra-high resolution.
If the new devices with Apple really will change the way people relate to technology (as said Tim Cook), it is still difficult to establish. But what is certain is eh Cupertino succeeded probably churn out yet another object of desire. Although it is a clock, arrived too late. On the other hand we know that the stars are more and wait.
