Many of us thought on the 2012th of October when Apple announced the death of Steve Jobs, the former president of the company, the thinking mind of it, and the godfather of all recent Apple inventions ... What will the future of the company be like? Will the Apple legend end? Will the company turn into a technical developer and not as innovative as we have come back and there is a big difference between development and innovation ... Well we have made a broad reading of the most important expectations for Apple in XNUMX and we brought it to you and we sought to focus on logical and new expectations and we focused on news on the iPhone and iPad. We sought to get the most powerful expectations because we know that Apple always returns us to let us think in one direction and it announces something in another direction completely, and this is not new, as this is Apple’s thought from day one and its slogan is everywhere.
Expectations say that according to Apple's current policy, we will see next April, God willing, the iPad 3 equipped with a Samsung A6 processor, which is a quad-core processor and will double the memory to reach 1 GB, a better game drive and a better battery, then transfer these things to the iPhone 5, which will change its shape and we will see it In the third quarter of next year. But these expectations are not enough. Actually, as we know that there are devices up to the market whose technical specifications are twice the specifications of Apple devices. For example, the next iPad in April is supposed to not only compete with the current devices, but compete with any device issued to the date of the iPad that comes to him in April 2013 and the same thing in the iPhone. To know the difficulty of the confrontation, let's look at an upcoming strong competitor for the iPad, namely Asus Transformer Prime With a processor speed of 1.3 gigabytes, quad-core versus the second 1 gigabyte dual-core iPad, and there is also a competitor to the iPhone, which is the Samsung Galaxy Note with a 1.4 dual-core processor versus the dual-core 1 GB in the iPhone 4S. Therefore, Apple faces a difficult test, and it is perhaps the strongest in its history, as it must provide technical and technological leaps in order to maintain its first position. It should be noted that the iOS system consumes less device resources compared to the Android competitor. Well let's look at what the company plans for next year.
Cloud Evolution
Apple has announced an investment of one billion dollars to build giant servers to serve the cloud on an area of 47 thousand square meters and also announced the construction of a solar power plant on an area of 700 thousand square meters to provide energy for the company’s servers mentioned above, and there is also news that it has hired Scott Notboom, director of the Yahoo data center. The former said that in his management of Yahoo databases have multiplied tenfold, so we expect that a breakthrough will happen to the Apple cloud. This means that Apple has decided to enter very seriously in this field and we do not know what Apple will do with it.
A new product from Jobs?
The news is about Tim Cook, CEO of Apple now, and that he was in a meeting with a journalist the day before the death of Steve Jobs and had to apologize for completing the meeting and going to meet Steve Jobs to discuss a new project, yes, a new project. Foreign websites used the word New Projects, not New Product. Between the two, it makes us doubt whether it is a linguistic error or is there a new innovation coming, and a large number of websites have changed the phrase and became the next iPhone 5 product, whatever the news, but we sure have that Steve Jobs was working for the day before his death on a new product for the company and that we will see upcoming products It was also produced by Jobs even after his death. Is this product the Apple TV that works with Siri technology? Or is it really the iPhone 5?
IPhone Outlook
The iPhone has acquired the lion’s share of expectations, and as we know that Apple’s policy is to produce a phone, then develop it, then an innovative phone, then develop it. This is what happened. The production of the iPhone 3G, then its development into 3GS, then a technological breakthrough in the iPhone 4 and its development in the iPhone 4s, meaning that next year we await a boom. New .. These are the most important expectations quickly:
NFC on iPhone
We talked about earlier NFC technology And about the large number of expectations that Apple will launch this service in the iPhone 4S, but this did not happen because from Apple's policy in production not to be the first to produce innovation, but to wait to see what everyone did and then announce its production, but in a dazzling and developed way, creating a boom in this product and this is what I did in the past In touch-screen devices and produced the iPhone, then it did the same in the world of tablets and produced the iPad and finally with the world of voice commands and produced Siri, and there is also another reason not to support the purification, which is the lack of places to buy that support this technology ... But what makes us say that the iPhone phone The next one will definitely contain NFC? The reason for this is several things. Firstly, it is Google's support for technology in most of its modern devices, as well as the launch of a purse for the service, as well as the announcement by Visa and MasterCard that they are on the way, but they only develop security systems, followed by the announcement by a number of major American companies that they support the technology and that they will provide this technology in their stores. All this announces that we expect the service to spread widely, and expectations say that the number of places that support the service next year will be 5 times the current number.
4G / LTE technology
Like the previous technology, the reason for not supporting Apple is the lack of complete spread of the technology and its high energy consumption. Away from the American company Verizon, the users of the new technology number approximately 17 million users around the world. This is the reason why Apple does not support it, but several large countries, for example, England announced that the technology licenses The new technology will become available next year, meaning that the technology is expected to spread starting from next year. It is not reasonable for Apple to leave this market without reaping its fruits. There are about 35 networks around the world that have obtained fourth generation licenses and the number is expected to reach 100 companies next year and there is a binding European Union decision. To all countries of the Union, to release the 4G frequency, which is 790-862 MHz, from all services that operate it until the end of 2012, as a deadline. There is another reason for this delay in support, which is the technical delay of Apple in the batteries, it is still producing 1420 mAh batteries, while other companies have produced batteries reaching 2000 mAh (2500 in the Galaxy Note) and perhaps the reason for this is the small size of the phone that impedes the expansion of the batteries If the size of the iPhone increases to 4 inches, for example, we will probably see 40% stronger batteries from at least.
IPad outlook
The iPad is the magic device as Steve Jobs called it, and it is for users and it is a black horse for Apple that wins all races and always jumps above expectations and analysis numbers. Apple knows this well, but it is developing the iPad slowly. Just as there were no major differences between the iPad 1 and the iPad 2, the iPad 3 is expected to offer several additions ...
Retina screen for iPad
IPad expectations focused mainly on the screen, so as we know that the iPad screen is poor compared to the iPhone screen, where the color density reaches 132ppi on the iPad compared to the 330ppi iPhone screen, and the answer was that there is a great difficulty in producing a Retina screen the size of an iPad, but with the arrival of the competitor of the iPad, which is The Galaxy Tab 7.7 has a density of 192ppi, and Toshiba has announced the production of a 6.1-inch screen and a density of 498ppi (a trial version, not a final product). All this means that there is no forgiveness for Apple if it produced the same previous screen. And it seems that this is true. LG, the producer of Apple screens, produced screens with a resolution of 2048 * 1536, i.e., with a color density of 264ppi and the same size as the iPad, and this means that we are on the way to a Retina screen the size of the iPad screen. In color intensity was not available before).
Siri on the iPad
Siri is the Apple key to sell the new iPhone 4S, which Apple previously bought for $ 200 million, then developed it and made it a smart assistant and talk to all iPhone users around the world. It is expected that the iPad 3, which is expected to appear in next April, contains the final version of the Siri system, as we know. It is a beta version and it is expected that the final version will be equipped with new languages such as Japanese, Chinese, Italian and Spanish, with support for maps of European Union countries and others, in addition to some advantages such as the ability to download an application by Siri and a voice recording. Siri is expected to reach the rest of Apple products such as Apple TV in 2013 and possibly Mac devices as well. But we see all previous expectations that they are just developments, and there is nothing dazzling unusual. I can trust you to say that I very much feel that Apple is the source of rumors to study the market before launching any product.
What do you think of the expectations, and is Apple's powerful weapon, which is the operating system and software store, enough to withstand the development in other devices? Or is Apple required to support these devices with high technical specifications to withstand the competition?
