Apple's September Event (iPhone 7, Earbuds, Apple Watch, Nintendo)

A lot of news has been announced by Apple today on September 7th, 2016. In Apple's September event a lot was announced including some news about "Pokémon GO", the iPhone 7, the second series of the Apple Watch, and a new Mario game that will be exclusive to Apple only (Yeah unfortunately Android doesn't get the game, but it is not yet confirmed if it will be coming Androids way or not, so look out for that if you have an Android phone).

Apple is now accepting pre-orders for the new iPhone starting September 9th and they will begin shipping out on September 16th. The listing price for the iPhone 7 is $649.00 the same amount as the iPhone 6. The iPhone 7 will include double the storage space beginning at 32 GB, longer battery life (up to 2 hours according to sources), and comes with Wireless Headphones also known as the Apple Airpods. The Apple Airpods will be automatically paired with most Apple devices such as: iPhone, Mac, Apple Watch, and the iPad. A lot of people have been wondering, "Will the iPhone 7 have a headphone jack?" Nope. It has been confirmed that the new iPhone 7 will not have a headphone jack, but don't worry Apple included a dongle in the box that comes with the iPhone 7 to allow you to connect old earphones and headphones, so maybe after all you'll still be able to plug in the AUX cord?

On top of Apple announcing the news on the newest iPhone and the headphone jack question, the new iPhone 7 is also coming out with a "plus" version. The plus version of the new iPhone 7 will be coming with another camera lens and the camera quality specs is quite incredible. Now comes with a high speed sensor which takes photos 60% faster and 30% more efficient. No more of those ugly action photos.

It has been confirmed as well that the iPhone 7 will be able to withstand 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. The body of the iPhone 7 is water and dust resistant. No more accidental drops or spills ruining your phone!

At today's Apple event, the new Apple Watch Series 2 was revealed. The Apple Watch Series 2 will start at the price of $369. The watch is water resistant up to 50 meters. Can't afford the new Apple Watch, but would like to own one? That's okay! Apple has updated the processor of the Apple Watch and the price for the original is $269. Watches will go on sale September 16th.

Pokémon GO will be coming to the Apple Watch! Instead of having to keep your phone out you will be alerted when a Pokémon has appeared or when you have approached a Pokéstop by your watch. As well as being alerted when a Pokémon appears or when you approach a Pokéstop, the Pokémon GO app on the Apple Watch will allow you to hatch eggs with the app open. How convenient!

Spoiler

Finally, the last thing that Apple revealed at their event today was a new app developed by Nintendo called, "Super Mario Run" much like the app Sonic Runners I'm guessing? Sadly it is unknown if there will be an Android release for this game, but I will keep you guys updated if it does get released.

Spoiler

That's all for now!
