The new iPhones feature a precision unibody enclosure of anodised aluminium that conforms seamlessly with the shaped glass of the display, resulting in a completely smooth and continuous surface. iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are engineered to be the thinnest ever, delivering a bigger display in a design that is still comfortable to hold and easy to use.<\/p>\n<p>Packed with innovative new technologies, iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus include: the Apple-designed A8 chip with second generation 64-bit desktop-class architecture for blazing fast performance and power efficiency; advanced iSight\u00ae and FaceTime\u00ae HD cameras; ultrafast wireless technologies; and Apple Pay\u2122, an easier way to simply and securely make payments with just the touch of a finger.\u00b9 Both models include iOS 8, the latest version of the world\u2019s most advanced mobile operating system, featuring a simpler, faster and more intuitive user experience with new Messages and Photos features, QuickType\u2122 keyboard, a new Health app, Family Sharing and iCloud Drive\u2120.<\/p>\n<p>\u201ciPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are the biggest advancements in iPhone history,\u201d said Tim Cook, Apple\u2019s CEO. \u201cThe iPhone is the most loved smartphone in the world with the highest customer satisfaction in the industry and we are making it much better in every way. Only Apple can combine the best hardware, software and services at this unprecedented level and we think customers are going to love it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the first time iPhone is available in two new sizes: iPhone 6 features a stunning 4.7-inch Retina\u00ae HD display with 1334 x 750 resolution, providing 38 percent more viewing area than iPhone 5s, while iPhone 6 Plus features an even bigger 5.5-inch Retina HD display with 1920 x 1080 resolution, providing 88 percent more viewing area and nearly three times the pixels than iPhone 5s. The Retina HD displays offer advanced technologies including higher contrast for deeper blacks and dual-domain pixels for more accurate colours at wider viewing angles.<\/p>\n<p>With second generation 64-bit desktop-class architecture, the all-new A8 chip offers faster performance and is more energy efficient, delivering higher sustained performance with great battery life. With Metal\u2122, a new graphics technology in iOS 8, developers can take performance of the A8 chip even further to bring console-class 3D games to iPhone. The A8 chip also includes a new, powerful Apple-designed image signal processor that enables advanced camera and video features.<\/p>\n<p>Both models include the M8 motion coprocessor that gathers motion data from the accelerometer, gyroscope, compass and the new barometer, which senses air pressure to provide relative elevation. The M8 motion coprocessor can continuously measure your motion data, even when the device is asleep, saving battery life for fitness apps that use the sensors all day. With iOS 8, motion data from M8 appears in the Health app so you can see how many flights of stairs you&#8217;ve climbed, or how far you&#8217;ve walked or run. Developers can use CoreMotion APIs that take advantage of M8 and HealthKit to create apps that help you take better care of your health and fitness.<\/p>\n<p>iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus introduce Apple Pay, an easy way to securely pay for physical goods and services in stores or apps with just the touch of a finger. Users can pay securely and conveniently in stores by simply holding the phone near the contactless reader while keeping a finger on Touch ID\u2122; there is no need to unlock your iPhone or launch an app. With Apple Pay, you can also make one-touch purchases within apps, without having to enter credit card or shipping information. All payment information is kept private, encrypted and stored securely in the Secure Element, a chip inside the new iPhones.<\/p>\n<p>The iSight camera gets even better with a new sensor featuring Focus Pixels for faster autofocus, making it easier to quickly capture any moment. iPhone 6 Plus users will also benefit from optical image stabilisation technology that compensates for hand shake in low light and works with iOS 8 to reduce subject motion. High-definition video on iPhone improves with faster frame rates up to 60fps for 1080p video and 240fps for slo-mo, as well as continuous autofocus, cinematic video stabilisation and time-lapse video. The FaceTime HD camera now captures over 80 percent more light with a new sensor, larger f\/2.2 aperture and advanced new features including burst mode and HDR video.<\/p>\n<p>With faster LTE download speeds of up to 150 Mbps, iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus users can browse, download and stream content faster. The new iPhones also support high-quality voice calls over LTE (VoLTE) as well as Wi-Fi calling.\u00b2 With support for up to 20 LTE wireless bands\u2014more than any other smartphone in the world\u2014the new models make it easier to experience high-speed networks around the world. Both iPhones also include 802.11ac Wi-Fi with speeds up to 433 Mbps and Bluetooth 4.0.\u00b3<\/p>\n<p>The new iPhones come with iOS 8, the biggest release since the launch of the App Store\u2120, delivering a simpler, faster and more intuitive user experience and new features including QuickType keyboard, a new Health app, Family Sharing and iCloud Drive. With more than 4,000 new APIs, iOS 8 allows developers to further customise the user experience with major extensibility features and robust frameworks such as HealthKit and HomeKit. iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus users also have access to the revolutionary App Store, which offers more than 1.3 million apps* to iPhone, iPad\u00ae and iPod touch\u00ae users in 155 countries around the world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing &amp; Availability<\/strong><br \/>\niPhone 6 comes in gold, silver or space grey, and will be available in Singapore for a suggested retail price of SGD$988 inc.

Pay<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>CUPERTINO, California &#8211; 10 September, 2014<\/strong> &#8211; Apple\u00ae today announced Apple Pay\u2122, a new category of service that will transform mobile payments with an easy, secure and private way to pay. Apple Pay works with iPhone\u00ae 6 and iPhone 6 Plus through a groundbreaking NFC antenna design, a dedicated chip called the Secure Element, and the security and convenience of Touch ID\u2122. Apple Pay is easy to set up, so hundreds of millions of users can simply add their credit or debit card on file from their iTunes Store\u00ae account. Apple Pay will also work with the newly announced Apple Watch\u2122, extending Apple Pay to over 200 million owners of iPhone 5, iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>Apple Pay supports credit and debit cards from the three major payment networks, American Express, MasterCard and Visa, issued by the most popular banks including Bank of America, Capital One Bank, Chase, Citi and Wells Fargo, representing 83 percent of credit card purchase volume in the US.* In addition to the 258 Apple retail stores in the US, some of the nation\u2019s leading retailers that will support Apple Pay include Bloomingdale\u2019s, Disney Store and Walt Disney World Resort, Duane Reade, Macy\u2019s, McDonald\u2019s, Sephora, Staples, Subway, Walgreens and Whole Foods Market. Apple Watch will also work at the over 220,000 merchant locations across the US that have contactless payment enabled. Apple Pay is also able to make purchases through apps in the App Store\u2120.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSecurity and privacy is at the core of Apple Pay. When you\u2019re using Apple Pay in a store, restaurant or other merchant, cashiers will no longer see your name, credit card number or security code, helping to reduce the potential for fraud,\u201d said Eddy Cue, Apple\u2019s senior vice president of Internet Software and Services. \u201cApple doesn\u2019t collect your purchase history, so we don\u2019t know what you bought, where you bought it or how much you paid for it. And if your iPhone is lost or stolen, you can use Find My iPhone to quickly suspend payments from that device.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Apple Pay will change the way you pay. When you add a credit or debit card with Apple Pay, the actual card numbers are not stored on the device nor on Apple servers. Instead, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted and securely stored in the Secure Element on your iPhone or Apple Watch. Each transaction is authorised with a one-time unique number using your Device Account Number and instead of using the security code from the back of your card, Apple Pay creates a dynamic security code to securely validate each transaction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJPMorgan Chase has been pleased to collaborate on Apple Pay to create a better, faster and safer payments system, which puts the customer first, creating an exceptional customer experience for consumers and merchants. Everyone wins,\u201d said Jamie Dimon, chairman and CEO, JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re providing our customers with tools to make their financial lives better, including our 30 million digital banking customers,\u201d said Brian Moynihan, CEO of Bank of America. \u201cFor them, better means simple and convenient. Apple Pay is another exciting move in that direction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cApple Pay is the kind of innovative thinking that brings the worlds of online and offline commerce closer together,\u201d said Ken Chenault, CEO of American Express. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to work with Apple to offer Card Members and merchants a simple and secure way to make purchases in stores and on apps.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Online shopping in apps with iPhone is also as simple as the touch of a finger. Users can pay for physical goods and services including apparel, electronics, health and beauty products, tickets and more with Touch ID. Checkout can happen with a single touch, so there\u2019s no need to manually fill out lengthy account forms or repeatedly type in shipping and billing information, and card details are kept private and are not shared with the online merchant. For example, quickly order grill accessories for a backyard BBQ from the Target app, easily request a ride with Uber without having to create an account first or avoid the lunch line by using Rapid Pick-Up and paying ahead in the Panera Bread app. Simply make your selection and when ready to buy, use Apple Pay to complete the transaction.<\/p>\n<p>Starting in October, with iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, Apple Pay will be available in the US as a free update to iOS 8. Apple Pay will work in stores with iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus and Apple Watch. Apple Pay APIs will be available to developers in iOS 8 so they can enable purchasing physical goods within their apps on iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.<\/p>\n<p>*American Express, Bank of America, Capital One Bank, Chase, Citi and Wells Fargo at availability with additional banks coming quickly thereafter including Barclaycard, Navy Federal Credit Union, PNC Bank, USAA and U.S. Bank.<\/p>\n<p>Apple designs Macs, the best personal computers in the world, along with OS X, iLife, iWork and professional software. Apple leads the digital music revolution with its iPods and iTunes online store. Apple has reinvented the mobile phone with its revolutionary iPhone and App Store, and is defining the future of mobile media and computing devices with iPad.<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n<h1><strong>Apple Watch<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>Finally, Tim Cook uses the &#8220;One More Thing&#8221; that has always intrigued the Apple fans. This time, he announces the Apple Watch (Not iWatch, BTW).<\/p>\n<p>My first impression of the Apple Watch is that it will definitely redefine the design of future smart watches. As you already know, Apple is great at designs.

It is so well designed. It can be conveniently slipped out to be replaced by other straps. Of course, in other smart watches, they tend to use traditional straps where you can purchase easily. For Apple Watch, you have to buy the Apple&#8217;s straps to replace it.<\/p>\n<p>The next &#8220;innovation&#8221; that Apple put in this Apple Watch is the Crown (or Dial).

The Retina\u00ae display on Apple Watch features Force Touch, a technology that senses the difference between a tap and a press, providing a new way to quickly and easily access controls within apps. Apple Watch introduces the Taptic Engine and a built-in speaker that together discreetly enable an entirely new vocabulary of alerts and notifications you can both hear and feel. Apple custom-designed its own S1 SiP (System in Package) to miniaturise an entire computer architecture onto a single chip. Apple Watch also features Wi-Fi 802.11b\/g and Bluetooth 4.0 to pair seamlessly with your iPhone.<\/p>\n<p>Apple Watch comes in three distinct collections\u2014Apple Watch, Apple Watch Sport and Apple Watch Edition\u2014available in two different sizes, 38 mm and 42 mm. The beautifully designed and durable enclosures are crafted from custom alloys of polished or space black stainless steel, space grey or silver anodised aluminium and 18-karat rose or yellow gold. Apple also created an entire range of watch straps: the high-performance elastomer Sport Band; the Milanese Loop in a flexible magnetic stainless steel mesh; the Leather Loop in soft, quilted leather that conceals magnets for quick fastening and adjustment; the leather Modern Buckle, which closes with a solid metal clasp; the leather Classic Buckle; and the stainless steel Link Bracelet. Apple Watch comes with a unique charging system that combines Apple\u2019s MagSafe\u00ae technology with inductive charging for a quick connection that snaps into place.<\/p>\n<p>Apple Watch is an extremely accurate timepiece that\u2019s also customisable for personal expression. Apple Watch comes with 11 watch faces ranging from traditional analog faces to new faces like the dynamic Timelapse face; the Astronomy face with its interactive, real-time 3D model of the earth, sun, moon and planets; and the Solar face, a contemporary sundial. Apple Watch can be personalised in appearance and capability with additional information such as upcoming events, moonphases or your activity level, enabling millions of possible configurations.<\/p>\n<p>Taking advantage of its location on your wrist, Apple Watch provides timely information that can be viewed at a glance. Smart Replies and dictation let you respond quickly to messages, and with Handoff, you can start a message on your Apple Watch and continue where you left off on your iPhone. Swipe up from the watch face for Glances that quickly show you information you care about, such as your current location, stocks or your next meeting. Pressing the side button brings up Friends, a view of your favourite people, so you can contact them quickly and easily. Digital Touch allows you to send a sketch, a gentle tap, an audio message through Walkie Talkie or even your own heartbeat. Apple Watch lets you interact quickly and conveniently with the world around you, so you can pay for coffee using Apple Pay\u2122,* board a plane with a Passbook\u00ae boarding pass, control your Apple TV\u00ae or get directions.<\/p>\n<p>Apple Watch includes a groundbreaking Activity app designed to help motivate you to be more active throughout the day, and an all-new Workout app designed to provide the metrics you need during dedicated workout sessions. Apple Watch uses the accelerometer, a built-in heart rate sensor, GPS and Wi-Fi from your iPhone to provide a comprehensive picture of your daily activity. The Activity app measures three separate aspects of movement: calories burned, brisk activity and how often you stand up during the day. The Workout app provides goal-setting and pacing during popular session-based workouts, such as running and cycling. The companion Fitness app on iPhone collects your activity data so you can see your activity history in greater detail. Apple Watch uses this history to suggest personal, realistic goals, reward fitness milestones and keep you motivated.<\/p>\n<p>Apple introduces WatchKit, providing new tools and APIs for developers to create unique experiences designed for the wrist. With Apple Watch, developers can create WatchKit apps with actionable notifications and Glances that provide timely information. Starting later next year, developers will be able to create fully native apps for Apple Watch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing &amp; Availability<\/strong><br \/>\nApple Watch will be available in three collections.
