This page is updated in real time: Click here to update .
The insane price of Apple Watch, available April 24:
– Model Sports (aluminum, plastic strap): 399 euros (38mm) to 449 euros (42 mm)
– metal model: 649 euros ( Plastic strap) to 1,249 euros (leather strap)
– gold model: 11.000 (pink gold plastic strap) to 18,000 euros (Yellow Gold , leather strap)
7:40 p.m.: That’s it
Thank you for follow-up, we find ourselves quickly to our impressions and a little analysis.
7:35 p.m.: Preorder April 10, available April 24
In a dozen countries, including the United States . and France
19.30: The gold model $ 10,000 !!! (10,000 no error)
This was expected, but there has still been little cries shocked at the announcement of the price of 10,000 dollars Apple Watch edition, 18 carat gold. Apple will manufacture in limited quantities
19:30. The metal version of 549-1099 dollars
The prices soar depending on the version of the chosen Bracelet (leather, metal etc.).
7:25 p.m.: From 349 to 399 dollars for the sports version
Why two prices? Because there are two sizes: 38 and 42 mm. Large wrist will have to pay 50 dollars more, to 399 dollars for the sports version aluminum / plastic. We expect the price of the metal version, it will hurt
7:20 p.m.. Autonomy of Day
Tim Cook simply refers to “18 hours of battery life for most people.” We would like to know the numbers in intensive use, such as during a half marathon.
7:20 p.m.: HomeKit integrated into the watch
The app allows you to see the live stream of his CCTV camera. With a connected lock can also open the garage door. Hackers prancing with impatience
7:15 p.m.. Calling with his watch
You can call provided that the iPhone is nearby. Clearly, the system uses the microphone just watch and relays the call by the phone. Speaking at his watch in public should be about as natural as with a Bluetooth headset.
7:10 p.m.: Siri and Apple Pay integrated with Apple Watch
We can talk at his watch to create a reminder or paying at the checkout. The problem at the moment is that we can already do all this with his phone, and that out of his pocket became an almost automatic reflex that is not very restrictive.
7:05 p.m.: Former supermodel Christy Turlington on stage to sell the watch
Hmm. There is a good issue in the case, but clearly dispensable. As awkward as U2 last
19.00:. A watch for Apple …
… communicate without leaving his phone. For now, Tim Cook repeats the same thing as last time. A marathon champion testifies. It has an Apple iPhone Watch … and strapped to the arm because the watch does not have integrated GPS. For athletes, the bracelet Microsoft or Garmin watches are interesting
19.00:. L Apple Watch Mickey …
No, Tim Cook, NO. It will not happen. A 5 year old does not need an Apple Watch. And an adult should ever have a Mickey Mouse watch. Ever.
6:55 p.m.: We go to the Apple Watch
Apple held almost 1h other ads. Well, we especially want to know the price and release date of his watch
6:50 p.m.. MacBook Air 12 inches April 10 from 1,299 dollars
For a version with a slow processor. For more power is 1599 dollars, and as many euros (which is not really seen a scandal that reaches parity exchange rates).
18h45: The USB-c, symmetrical, finally arrives
This is the new micro-USB port, which can be connected in any way. No more “I trial in a sense. It does not fit. In the other either. I return. AAARRRGGG.”
6:40 p.m.: 9 hours of battery for the MacBook Air, no fan
It is thinner, but Apple has integrated a new type of battery that can conform to the shape of the box and stack them to fill the available space. 9:00, however, is pretty standard now. Good news, there is no fan. Hoping that it does not get too hot on the thighs
18.30. A MacBook Air 12-inch less than 1 kg
It is ultra thin (13.1 mm) and lightweight, to 2 pounds (900 grams). Apple is clearly trying to counter the hybrid PC / tablets like Surface Pro 3 and 800 grams. Finally, it goes to a Retina display (2304×1440 px). The keyboard has been redesigned with a “butterfly” mechanism. The touchpad also that “clicks” Also, just press a little harder. However, the screen is still not touch. A function for the iPad Pro (him, pushed a priori fall) we must keep well.
6:20 p.m.: Apple launches ResearchKit for Medical Research (open source)
This platform will leverage HealhKit for real-time monitoring of patients. With apps, for example Parkinson (tap on the screen in rhythm, walk 20 steps, etc.) and with synthetic graphs. Also on the program: diabetes, asthma and cardiovascular disease. Unusual for Apple, the platform will be open source so that everyone can contribute
6:15 p.m..: 40 cars arrive with Car Play
Tim Cook is an announcement to another, at any speed. He speaks of HomeKit and HealthKit, platforms for home and health of Apple.
6:15 p.m. : 2,500 partners to Pay Apple
You can now pay with an iPhone to buy a Coke to the beverage machine without seeking 14 pieces in your wallet
6:10 p.m. 700 million iPhones sold
Thanks the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, and to finally be moved to a big screen. To see Samsung as the last, very successful (and very expensive) behaves
6:10 p.m.. The price of Apple TV down to $ 69
Instead of $ 99. Normal while Roku offers or Chromecast are less than $ 40
6:05 p.m.. Now HBO arrives on the Apple TV
This is the streaming service “without cable subscription” HBO. HBO boss arrives and he abused the self-tanning. He announced that Apple is the “exclusive partner” of Apple at launch. Now HBO offers access to the whole catalog, past and future, TV and movies. Early April. 14.99 dollars a month. Just in time for Game of Thrones on 12 April. See how long does Apple excluded. Nice this new trailer for GoT S5, dragons keep growing …
6:05 p.m. Tim Cook has changed dress
Fashion alert. Today is a sweater over his blue shirt. Long sleeves hide his wrists
18.00:. Here we go, right on time
Fortunately for keynote devoted to a show … It starts in the video, as usual with Apple crazy fans. A mark to cause as much enthusiasm and hatred, there is probably a psychology dissertation writing.
5:40 p.m.: Keynote well 18:00
Hello, my mistake, the keynote is at 18:00 in France and not 19:00. In fact, it happened in the summer time in the US, and there are now more than 8 hours of step with California and not 9 as usual. I need coffee to wake me up.
This is expected by the users of 20 Minutes
You were asked the question, here are the most expected features (for diving, sorry, the watch is simply water proof, and n ‘there is no GPS: we must take his smartphone during his jogging):
- Mik: “An application to locate a child or an elderly person also carrier of this unit or an individual caught in an avalanche. And why not a language translator “
- Cedric. ” I want to run with, skiing, see my SMS without unsheathing my phone. And know right away if it’s stepmother or Charlie (my best friend) who calls me! “
- Alexander “I want to dive with!”
- Michel: “A video projector in the watch ., that the property would “
- Jean-Philippe: ” Measuring blood pressure and altitude: The sports geek looking for something trendy, versatile between sport and evening. A skilful blend of design, extreme sports with a concentration of technology. For example, a cardio-sensor, what measuring blood pressure and altitude, all that collects as much data “
17.00: Where to watch the event
Apple releases its keynote live at this address. As usual, the Apple brand because of discrimination against the PC and Android: you have an Apple device (iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV) and Safari to be allowed to watch. Fortunately, my girlfriend has a mac.
Now is the great day of the Apple Watch. From San Francisco, Tim Cook will reveal the expected details (price, availability, and autonomy). He will especially convince the world that smartwatches have a genuine interest. He will focus on fitness? Hard with a watch without GPS is not waterproof. Fashion and luxury, with a gold version that could exceed 5,000 euros? Complicated with planned obsolescence to two years. Perhaps simply on desire, an object of design rather successful. Find us at 19:00 to watch live all ads. In the process, our special envoy to the European event in Germany will deliver his new impressions
