Makradar Technologies / / December 19, 2019
Just recently I completed Apple Event, which proved to be extremely productive on the news. It was announced the new iPod models, reducing the price on the iPhone and others. We have tried to sum up the results of the event.
new iTunes
His speech, Steve Jobs began with a story about iTunes. Apple can be proud of their achievements - users downloaded more than 600 million copies of iTunes. Online music store has sold over 3 billion songs and takes the 1st place in sales in the 21 country in the world where it operates. It noted a huge increase in sales - Apple starts selling music online with 200 thousand. songs, and now more than 6 million. The "Apple" is competing in terms of traditional retailers, second only to two American trading networks. Successfully sold not only music, but also TV shows (550 programs and series have been sold to almost 100 million times).
iTunes changed the music industry. In the US, now every third track released only in electronic form (not on CD).
As to the iTunes program, in a few hours it will update. Main feature -Ability to create ringtones for the iPhone. Ringtones can be done from songs purchased from an online store that will spur more selling time. Participate in the first stage will be 500 thousand songs, but their number will increase in the future. In this case, for the ringtone will have to pay. :)
new iPod
Apple has sold more than 110 million music players and prepared update of each model in the line! Steve Jobs started the story with the iPod shuffle. Shuffle will be available in new colors, plus there will be RED model, which is traditionally considered to be more expensive in the range of iPods. Part of the proceeds from the sale will go to help Africa.
iPod nano, the most popular player in history to get an increase (2-inch), a bright display for watching videos and Cover Flow to work with the library files. Will the game (there are three), increased storage space and all-metal design. iPod nano will be even finer player!
The battery of the new nano will withstand 24 hours of music playback, video playback 5:00. Silver iPod nano will come with 4 GB of space and 8 GB models are in all colors.
"Yabloko" will get a new iPod Classics, which is thinner than its predecessor. He will come with 80 GB (th). Sluchasht music can be 30 hours, watch videos 6.
For those who can not imagine my life without music, the company introduced the iPod with 160GB of space. That should be enough for... 40,000 songs (can not imagine who would buy as much). The model will cost $ 350.
And finally, the latest and most luxurious model of iPod - iPod Touch. Its operation will also be carried out, both in the iPhone. Yes, and the size of the phone and the player will be the same. We can say that etoiPod Touch - iPhone without the ability to call and send SMS :)
Steve Jobs jokingly called the iPod Touch seventh wonder of the world. The device has a 3.5-inch widescreen display and WiFi support. In the opinion of the bloggers and the press model great for storing photos. The iPod Touch will be a calendar, address book, calculator, video storage and the possibility of... web browser. You will be able to watch YouTube videos on the screen of the player to visit social networking sites. use the mapping service Google Maps. iPod touch battery allows 22 hours of listening to music or watch videos for 5 hours. "What is the price?" - the big question. The model with 8 GB will cost $ 299, and 16GB for a hundred more. iPod Touch will be available in two weeks.
Especially for the iPod Touch has written a new program iTunes WiFi music store, allows you to buy music directly from the "iPods" :)
Starbucks
In Russia, will soon open the first Starbucks, so that this part of the Apple Event also touch on. Apple promises that as long as users are sitting in cafes Starbucks, they have free access to the iTunes WiFi music store without any login and password specific to institutions with WiFi, :) And moreover, you can buy the song that is playing in the moment. Cool.
iPhone
This month will sell millions of iPhone, so skeptics were predicting failure, wrong. In addition, Apple cut the price of "iPhones" - now it is $ 399.
