Apple launched four new products today
Apple just launched a whole bunch of stuff today without the usual stage show – including the first-ever red iPhone.
They also have new full-sized iPad – and goes on sale on Friday, just like the new phone.
There is also an update to its iPhone SE model with more storage. The limited edition iPhone 7 is the result of a partnership with Aids charity (PRODUCT)RED, with proceeds from each device sale going towards programs run by the charity.
New iPad
This new 9.7in iPad comes with a Retina display screen and replaces the iPad Air 2, first released in 2014, in Apple’s tablet line-up and will start at $329 for the 32GB version of the device.
Apple’s Phil Schiller said: iPad is the world’s most popular tablet. Customers love the large, 9.7in display for everything from watching TV and movies, to surfing the web, making FaceTime calls and enjoying photos, and now it is even more affordable.
Red iPhone
The red version of the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus is otherwise the same hardware as announced by the technology giant when first revealing the smartphone back in September.
Apple boss Tim Cook said: ‘Since we began working with (RED) 10 years ago, our customers have made a significant impact in fighting the spread of Aids through the purchase of our products, from the original iPod nano (PRODUCT)RED Special Edition all the way to today’s line-up of Beats products and accessories for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch.’
The red device will start at £699 and will go on sale on March 24, the same day as the new iPad.
iPhone SE update
Apple also said its smaller iPhone SE model will be available in 32 and 128 gigabyte (GB) versions, replacing the 16 GB and 64 GB models.
Clips app
The tech giant also launched a new video editing app called Clips, which enables users to combine video, photos and music into short videos for sharing via social media.
