All of the new products dropped from the Apple tree
Recently, Apple has introduced us to many new products and updates. Over the past three months, Apple has released a new iMac, two new iPad models, four new iPhone models, and two new Apple Watches, not to mention the advanced new IOS 14 update they released on September 16, 2020.
27-inch iMac model
In August of this year, Apple released the latest version of their desktop computer, the 27-inch iMac. This isn’t the company's first time releasing a 27-inch iMac, with the first instance being the iMac Pro- however, like with most Apple products, the Pros tended to be more advanced and expensive when compared to other iMac models. With the 27-inch iMac, Apple has managed to create a perfect iMac for people who prefer a larger screen size, but don’t need all of the other extras and enhancements that the iMac Pro provides. The latest iMac comes equipped with a 5k retina display, a 10-core intel core i9 processor, 5.0 GHz turbo boost, AMD Radeon Pro 5000 series graphics, 16gb of GDDR6 memory, a built in 1080p HD webcam, and a built-in, studio quality, three-mic-array microphone.
The 27-inch iMac released with three different models, with each model changing the Turbo Boosted Processor as well as the amount of GB that can be storedThe 27-inch iMac currently retails, at its lowest
iPad Air
The iPad Air was released on October 23 of this year as one of the most technologically advanced iPads to date.The device comes equipped with an A14 Bionic chip, which makes things like photo editing and music creation easier. An amazing retina display with high‑quality landscape stereo speakers, fast and easy internet connectivity (with LTE speeds being up to 60% faster), a 12MP back camera with Focus Pixels, and a 7MP HD camera are all offered on this new iPad model. One of the main selling points of the new iPad Air is how it is made of 100% recycled materials. It also comes in many colors, such as Silver, Space Gray, Rose Gold, Green, and Sky Blue.

iPad
The iPad has a 10.2 inch retina display and a built-in 8MP back camera and front FaceTime HD camera. It has an all-day battery life and weighs about a pound. It was made with the A12 bionic chip for doing tasks more efficiently. The A12 bionic chip has amazing performance. It can almost be like a game console when paired with a PlayStation DualShock controller or an Xbox controller when paired with bluetooth.
Apple Watch Series 6
The apple watch has 2 sizes, those being either the 44mm or the 40mm. It has an always-on retina display that is 50m water resistant. The Apple Watch Series 6 has a new feature that takes your blood oxygen level and can perform an ECG. It also gives notifications when you have a high or low heart rate or irregular heart rhythm. It supports family setup (GPS + Cellular models), has a compass, and sports an always-on altimeter. The watch comes in three different cases: aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium.
Apple Watch SE
Similar to the Series 6, the SE also has 2 sizes: 44mm and 40mm. It has a retina display that is also 50m water resistant. It also gives the same heart notifications as the Series 6. The SE has Emergency SOS and international emergency calling. Just like the Series 6, it also has fall detection, supports family setup, has a compass and includes an always-on altimeter.
