Reliable sources said the highest retail price of 18k Gold Edition Apple Watch may exceed 10,000 US dollars. Apple will be held in Beijing on March 10 at 1 am in the grass in San Francisco on the theme of "Spring Forward" special press conference. External analysts believe that this conference may be the most important conference held by Apple in mid-2015, because Apple will not only be disclosed at this conference, Apple Watch, including the price and release date, including more information, at the same time It is also possible to release new Macbook, iOS updates and other news. Recently, TNW carefully compiled for the reader, Apple is expected to release this week's six major news release, as follows: 1. Apple watch pricing and starting area At the moment, we're almost certain the price of the Apple Watch is $ 349, so the question remains: what is the maximum retail price for this watch? It is reported that the sporty Apple Watch sells for $ 349, this version uses a body design and rubber wristband, it is the lowest price, but also Apple to expand the popularity of their watch a major product models. At the same time, all Apple watches will be available in two sizes, so we are also looking forward to seeing the price difference between the two sizes at the press conference. According to John Gruber of Daring Fireball, a well-known technology blog in the US, the average price of a stainless steel wristband version of Apple Watch will be around $ 1,000, and the initial price for this version may be as low as $ 700, The most expensive style of the price will still far exceed its average price of 1000 US dollars. Of course, the specific price of 18k gold version of Apple Watch is the most concerned about a topic. At present, many analysts have speculated that the price of this watch will be the same price of an excellent mechanical watch comparable, that is, between 1-2 million. But Marco Arment, chief technology officer at microblogging Tumblr, says the projected price is a little overkill and says the 18k gold version of Apple Watch will cost around $ 5,000. In any case, 18k Gold Edition Apple Watch will be one of the most expensive Apple products in history. Prior to this, Apple has already said Apple Watch will begin shipping in April this year, so Apple is almost certainly announced at the local time Monday conference release time and pre-sale start date. 2. Wristbands and accessories As with many other watches, personalized elements have always been an important part of Apple Watch, so consumers can also change their favorite watch styles for Apple Watch. At last year's Apple conference, the company has already demonstrated a lot of Apple watch strap design, but at this conference we will see the real market strap style and their specific price. From the current news, all sports watch strap Apple Watch will be sold separately, but other versions of the part of the strap or because of the color with the consideration and can not do this. As for third-party strap, we may also need to wait for some time to hear more information, because Apple will never discuss too many third-party products in their conference. According to tech media TechCrunch, Apple may also encourage third-party vendors to develop more "smart wristbands" that interact with the watch itself, though this feature may not be realized until the second generation of Apple Watch. 3 watch application At a conference in September last year, Apple showed some Apple watch applications, but we are almost certain to see more about the topic at this press conference. Earlier, Apple released the development tools to application developers, so they had about 4 months to prepare their own applications, and Apple will certainly highlight some of the best third parties at this conference Watch application (probably also from Apple's official watch application). At the same time, Apple is most likely to announce some changes that app stores may usher. From the current situation, the application store may not be usher in too many changes, because the watch application will be distinguished from the mobile application. However, we think it is possible for Apple to open a separate "Watch Store" in the future to meet the needs of Apple watch users. The new App Store may have its appearance later this year. 4 new Macbook Apple is sure to release a new Macbook in the coming year, but the release of next week seems to be the most likely release time. External analysts believe that Apple will release Macbook Air's successor at this conference, and the product will be lighter, smaller, at the same time have a better display screen. According to January's 9to5Mac report from the U.S. technology blog, Apple plans to release the newly designed 12-inch MacBook Air in 2015. This device removes the full-size USB interface, MagSafe power connector and SD card reader and is equipped with ultra-high Resolution display. The 12-inch new MacBook Air is a quarter-inch narrower than the 11-inch MacBook Air, and the new MacBook Air plugs into a bigger screen, narrowing the screen border considerably. In addition to the screen changes, the entire Unibody aluminum body of the 12-inch MacBook Air has been completely redesigned. It is reported that this design inspired by Steve Jobs 10 years ago released the 12-inch PowerBook. Among them, the keyboard in addition to edge to edge design, the distance of each button has also been reduced. Above the keyboard are four redesigned speaker openings, in addition to these openings are also the new MacBook Air vents, because the 12-inch MacBook Air will use a fanless design. The 12-inch MacBook Air may be the least interoperable Apple device with a standard headphone jack on the left and a dual-microphone voice input and noise reduction system on the left. On the right is the new USB Type-C interface. The USB Type-C connector is smaller and faster than the USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 features currently used in computers. The USB Type-C connector replaces the Thunderbolt display interface on current Apple laptops , as Type-C supports display connectivity. In addition, the USB Association has said that USB Type-C can be used to power computers, which also makes the standard MagSafe power connector redundant. 9to5Mac said the device will be the largest revolution in the MacBook product line since the Retina MacBook Pro was released in 2012. In addition, according to "The Wall Street Journal" news pointed out that the new MacBook Air will be shipped from April to June this year, so Apple is most likely to be officially introduced this week at the conference. 5.Macbook Air update Although Apple is most likely to launch the new 12-inch MacBook Air at the press conference, this does not mean the company has completely abandoned the old MacBook Air line because Apple has always had the habit of keeping old products at a reduced price. However, this also requires Apple to make some updates to the components of the older MacBook Air line. The current MacBook Air last update was in April 2014, when Apple joined Intel's latest Haswell architecture processor. Therefore, we have reason to believe that Apple will soon be equipped with a newer generation of Broadwell processors. This means that future MacBook Air will have more robust performance and longer battery life. If Apple really released a 12-inch MacBook Air, then the price of the old MacBook Air will usher in the adjustment. 6.iOS 8.2 Apple watch can only be used normally when paired with the phone, and to do this, Apple first need to push system updates for the phone. It is reported that iOS 8.2 will be officially released next week, the system will officially support Apple Watch, Apple has now its GM version to the operators for the final test, which is mainly for health application improvements, stability and bug fixes . And this system version also added an Apple Watch "companion" application, the application allows users to change the watch settings on the phone. Unfortunately, the richer emoji emoticons will not be available until iOS 8.3. You will not see the news: It should be noted that the previously controversial 12.9-inch iPad in the media probably will not appear on schedule. According to a recent report by Bloomberg, Apple originally expected to start mass production of the 12.9-inch iPad this quarter, but Apple plans to postpone production until September due to screen panel supply issues. At the same time, the outside world has been waiting for a long time for a new Apple TV, but the recent news about the product has gradually been submerged by Apple Watch. We still believe that Apple will update the Apple TV line in the future, but will not see the news in the near future. In addition, according to technology blog 9to5mac quoted the music industry insiders informed that in the upcoming "Spring Forward" new conference, Apple will not launch streaming Beats-based music services, but the service is expected in early June this year, Apple World Developer Conference (WWDC) debut. The new Apple iTunes streaming service is reportedly based on the Beats Music technology it acquired, including playlists, cloud-based media libraries, and customized services for individuals. The service is priced at $ 7.99 per month, cheaper than current music services such as Beats Music, Spotify, and Rdio. Apple originally planned to roll out the streaming music service earlier in 2015 but delayed the listing due to the departure of key employees and the integration of Beats original human and technology resource challenges.
