Days later, the year 2013 ends, which was a busy year for Apple and issued a lot of new products such as the iPhone 5s and 5C, as well as the iPad mini Retina and Air, as well as updating the MacBook Pro, Mac Pro and other devices. On these days last year, we had published an article about our expectations for the current year, and indeed most of the expectations came almost as we mentioned - see the previous article via this link-. And now we publish what we expect for Apple in 2014?


IPhone

The year 2013 was different from Apple in the field of iPhone, as it for the first time released two phones, the 5s and 5c, and the first achieved huge sales that exceeded all expectations, and even Apple itself is still facing a demand for it that exceeds what it produces, which made the device officially only reached 50 Almost a country - officially - despite the approaching end of the year, which Apple promised to be by the end of the year in more than 100 countries. Next year, Apple will have more than one challenge, such as:

IPhone 6: According to Apple's policy, next year it should provide the iPhone 6, which will of course be with a better processor, more memory, a 13-megapixel camera and other traditional features, but the most awaited is the shape where it will be radically different, and perhaps it is something that Apple will decide to enlarge the iPhone again to reach 4.3 An inch or even 4.5 inches while maintaining the proportions of length and width so that developers are not harmed.

Successor to 5C: After more than two and a half months of the device’s release, we can say that this device failed to fulfill even Apple’s expectations for it, so it is difficult for Apple to maintain the production of the device at the same standards that led to the current failure, so Apple might enlarge the iPhone 6 to 4.3 inches and maintain On the iPhone 5c of the same current size, with special features and a lower price than his brother, and thus achieve sales.

Conclusion: We expect the iPhone 6 to be differently and perhaps - expect 70% - to have a larger size, while the successor to the 5c will be the same size, but also with a better design and add to the fingerprint feature and a 64Bit processor. We will see the device in September.


IPad

This year has witnessed the biggest change in the history of the iPad since the release of the iPad 2, so the Air came to be slimmer, more weighty, and at a higher speed, and the younger brother, Ritna, became. And here comes the challenge for Apple, how will the next generation be? Expectations revolve around the development of the iPad while retaining its current form, adding a touch identity "fingerprint" and improving the camera to 8 mega and placing the same iPhone 5s camera in addition to increasing memory, speed and some other changes, that is, development will focus on performance, not outward appearance.

Bigger Size !!!: Dozens of specialized websites and analysts have mentioned that Apple will launch a huge version of the iPad, with a size of 12.9 inches, 4K screen resolution, and possibly 4 GB memory, and the device will target the segment of artists, education and others who care about size, not light weight and ease of transport, and of course its price will increase over the Air by nearly 200 $. Frankly, we are not very inclined to have an iPad of this size, and we do not know whether the market really needs a Super iPad.

IPad is expected to be unveiled next October.


New product

Almost the only expectation that we mentioned last year and it did not happen is that Apple will introduce a new product, and it was old it is said that it is a smart TV, but now that we have seen a smart watch from Samsung, Sony and other companies, this product has become the Apple Watch, which the company is expected to reveal. In the second quarter of next year (April-May-June) at a conference for the company, it is inconceivable that Apple will leave the field of watches for competing companies and Samsung, which announced the sale of nearly a million smart watches in recent months.

As for smart TV, it will not be released in 2014, and Apple will postpone it to 2015 so that it can make the most of the Prime Sense, Siri and other technologies to come in a unique and different way from any other device.


Miscellaneous

IOS 8: Last year, we expected the iOS 7 system to come in a radically different way, which has already happened, and next year comes a big challenge for Apple as it intends to present it in its eighth system, which Apple is expected to reveal on June 9, so what can Apple present in the system? The answer is more openness, which was mentioned by Tim Cook at the Apple conference this year and also in several press interviews, where he explained that Apple in the coming periods will be more open and flexible with developers, but in the form that preserves the company. Perhaps Apple will allow the user to change the fonts or the shape of the system and even modify the applications of the Control Center and others, that is, it will focus on freedom in the system more.

4K screens: It is expected that Apple will update its "Thunderbolt" screens to support 4K, and the first signs of this matter have begun by selling 4K screens produced by Sharp this week in the European stadiums.

IPod touch: It is expected that Apple will unveil at the iPhone conference the new generation of iPod Touch devices.

Mac devices: As usual, the MacBook family will be developed, except for the "Pro" version, which has been updated this year. Apple will also unveil the new generation of Mac mini.
