The worst-kept secrets in tech are out and they will be available very soon.
During the recently-concluded Apple keynote, several new devices have been announced to the public: the iPhone 6 and 6+, Apple Watch, and the new iOS 8.
Clamor from die-hard Apple fans have produced the brand’s first phablet, the iPhone 6+. The iPhone 6 has a 4.7 inch display while the 6+ has a whopping 5.5 inch display. Both displays are Retina HD, giving more brilliant and higher contrast images than previous iPhone screens. It’s also got a 8MP iSight camera and boasts 10-12 hour battery life with LTE!
Both iPhones come in 16, 64, and 128GB flavors starting at $199 on contract for the 6 and $299 on contract for the 6+. These will be available for pre-order on September 12 and will be released on September 19. The 6 and 6+ will be simultaneously available in countries like France,Hong Kong, Canada, Germany, Singapore, UK, Australia and Japan.

Apple finally weighs in on wearable technology with its Watch. The name might not be imaginative, but the design is unmistakably Apple, with watch faces and straps you can change to customize the look. It can notify you of texts and emails, call loved ones, and even draw on it to send to friends.
It also has a fitness tracker, a workout app, and you can possibly annoy your friends all day using the Tap function (it sends a trigger to the other Apple Watch to vibrate, or “Tap” the wearer)!
3. iOS 8
Apple’s latest generation operating system improves on photo management, resource sharing, messaging, and shortcuts to give users a better way to navigate their Apple devices. iOS 8 is compatible with iPhone 4s and up, iPad 2 and up, and iPod touch 5th generation.
