Apple Finally Announces a New MacBook Air - Spooky Smarthome Halloween

How-To Geek Newsletter
October 30, 2018

Today Apple announced a bunch of new and very expensive products that we've already spent way too much money on. They used to only announce new stuff once a year so it wasn't that bad, but now it's every few months and it's getting expensive.

The biggest news is that Apple finally updated the MacBook Air with all the stuff everybody has been complaining about for years—including a high resolution display. It's got USB-C, and TouchID, and a new keyboard and trackpad, all in the same case that make it one of the most iconic laptops out there. They also updated the Mac Mini with modern specs — now it supports up to 64 GB of RAM!

They also completely revamped the iPad Pro—now it's got Face ID, the home button is removed, a better keyboard that has multiple angles, and a new Pencil that charges wirelessly and attaches with a magnet. It's a significant upgrade.

They did announce one free upgrade… iOS 12.1 is out today, with Group FaceTime, a fix for the “Beautygate” camera bug, new Emoji, and dual SIM support.
