The future of television


Apple Announces New Apple TV

The future of TV is apps.

On September 9th, Apple CEO Tim Cook announced the long-awaited new Apple TV. It includes a new box, new OS and a brand new remote. It was probably the center of the show since the teaser was " Hey Siri, give me a hint!" and the new Apple TV contains Siri now.

The new OS with the new TV is called tvOS. Cook said that the future of TV is apps. And that means that now you can play games and see your favorite apps on your big screen television. 

The new remote is called the Siri remote. It is very cool. It has a touch surface on the top where you can swipe left, right, up and down and click to select. There are other buttons for Siri, Menu , volume up and down, play and pause and another button which I do not understand what it is. It might be sleep or AirPlay.



Tell me your thoughts on the Apple TV in the comments below.

Apple has started production of iPhone SE in India. Shipping later in May.

This post is taken from  9to5Mac . In the US, the  iPhone SE sells in two flavors , a 32 GB and 128 GB model for $399 and $499 respectively. Third-party Indian resellers already undercut that price point, selling iPhone SE around the $320 mark. Apple was  effectively forced into setting up domestic manufacturing  in order to launch Indian retail stores, as India laws state that companies wanting a retail presence must source at least 30% of their goods locally. According to the Wall Street Journal, government officials hope to see the India iPhone SE sell for even less in its home country. There are obviously some cost savings for Apple to take advantage of by producing domestically and local government reportedly believes Apple could sell its iPhone for as low as $220 (converted to Indian currency). Apple typically does not like to price its devices differently based on region,...
