New year, new iPhone
The first innovation was sung: iPhone 6 , a new version of the crown jewel of the company, which now exist in two versions: iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. The main difference is that the former has a 4.7 inch screen while the “vitaminised” version will be 5.5 inches, with an impressive resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. To get an idea, that is exactly what is required of a TV or display Full HD
In this way Apple enters the territory of the tabletófonos. devices that act originally as smart phones but that size could almost be tablets, something that brands like Samsung have achieved a good return at this point.
By comparison, the iPhone 6 is almost 2 longest (diagonal) cm that the current iPhone 5s, and iPhone 6 Plus nearly 4 cm. But:. Until you can not prove you can not see if it is still just as handy with the thumb of one hand, which had traditionally been a major advantage of the Apple Terminal
A level design the new models are a bit thinner, with smooth, rounded edges and a button changed places. The glass is curved at the edges and at the back there is a slightly different color bands in the rest of the housing. The colors and accessories like cases are essentially the known so far
Internally there are more changes. the iPhone 6 carry a new processor called A8, are much faster (as specifications, 50%) and have some improvements in cameras: physical stabilization hardware which moves the lens during recording and the ability video- camera recording at ultra slow up to 240 frames per second , twice so far.

Apple Watch, the expected
“Apple clock”
The real novelty of the event, which was preceded by an aura of mystery and classic phrase “And now, one last thing …” has been the watch watch-or ” wereable “as it is called today these devices-Apple Watch . This announcement was especially important for Tim Cook and the company because in one way or another had to show that he still have the ability to create truly innovative new products. Watch And Apple is by far the most again that have occurred since the iPhone hit the market
Y is a clock “Apple brand” also combines many factors. one Functional and technological , which allows you to all kinds of things -e impropias- own a wristwatch, and a design, fashion, brand and status is sold in a variety of patterns and colors, the screen makes it totally customizable You can be perfectly considered a fashion accessory, its price (which starts at about 350 euros) places it in the area of ”object of desire”, away from the vulgarity of the cheapest. Will this pricing strategy, high functionality of “higher status”? Let’s wait a few months to see him.
Apple Watch design is basically square, with rounded edges and interchangeable straps of all types of materials and elegant magnetic couplings. It has metallic color but there is also a version 18K gold much more striking (that in two sizes). About the look, design and styling will be discussed ad infinitum these days, but what better entertainment than watching people argue whether a piece of design is pretty or ugly?
The screen is Touch, with a completely new interface compared to other iOS devices. To avoid the problem that you can not use many gestures phones or tablets that simply “pop” the information with the fingers, the Apple Watch uses a lateral wheel acting as zoom and “click”. It is indeed witty and showy, although may seem to some “retro” and inappropriate. – But according to the times retro is also fashionable, so it all depends on how you look

In the rear leading biometric sensors and also used to recharge the batteries via a cable with a magnetic connector. As explained by Tim Cook, the Apple Watch has placed special emphasis on sports related app and healthy living; also includes the same technology of electronic payments the iPhone 6
The visual interface of the phone app is very ingenious. a kind of “circular zoom” moving icons and allows the wheel to expand. Many of the apps can be customized (colors, panels and other details), and developers can create apps too, like the rest of the iOS ecosystem.
have not disclosed further details about how certain apps work, nor the prices of each model and complement clocks. Yes it has been ensured that will be available in early 2015 -which means Apple lost the Christmas campaign for their misfortune but, in the words of Tim Cook, “it will be worth the wait” . In a few months the potential buyers decide whether is right.
