iPhone 8
All the tech freaks and IPhone fanatics have been eagerly waiting for the launch of their latest device iPhone 8. This is believed to be a game changer for its eye watering price, innovative catch up features and all new design. According to new information, this latest iPhone is most expensive in its line, and its super upgraded features make the gadget worth the big price tag. Ming Chi Kuo, KGI security analyst stated that the most reliable and trustworthy Apple tipster is back again, and this time it is sure to cause a massive stir. Along with hosts of new and enhanced features this Apple gadget will feature a compact form factor, and will have a dramatically improved battery life.

Better view with bigger size 

Recently, Kuo revealed some of the features of this brand new Apple device, one of them being super compact design. He revealed, that iPhone 8 will have a 5 inch display, but will not be larger than their 4.7 inch phones. This is a standout feature considered to be extremely modern, and has been used till date in the monster phablets. The compact size will make it handy and easily usable with one hand. Apple is going to achieve this look of a 5 inch display in a 4.7 inch phone by cutting the bottom and top bezels.

The extra space available in most modern Smartphone is practically of no use and thus Apple has decided to use that extra space and create a screen extension. The touch ID and iconic home button will be removed and integrated within the display. Well, this technology is not entirely new and was announced by LG in 2016, but Apple seems to have accomplished it before them.

Improved battery performance 

Kuo also revealed that this high tech phone will feature a 2,700 MaH battery. It is almost 30% larger than iPhone 7’s 1960 maH battery. The phone will squeeze in this battery using a logic board design, and thus by using this board there will be extra space for fitting in this bigger battery.

Although, Samsung a rival company of Apple has already launched phone with 3000 maH, iOS has always managed to get away with small batteries. This new iPhone launch will feature an OLED display instead of the standard LCD and is sure to offer a better and enhanced experience.

Major leap for Apple 

Both externally and internally, iPhone 8 is being considered to be the biggest update in Apple’s history. According to speculations, this new gadget will be names iPhone X and its launch will mark the 10th anniversary of iPhone. During the launch of iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 plus Apple had broken its two year design cycle, and had given the same traditional design to three successive generations.

For this, several critics had accused the mega tech giant company of losing its innovative ability. This had affected the company both in terms of reduced sales figures and lower profit margins. The new and enhanced designs and features of iPhone 8 will definitely accelerate the margin scale.

iPhones Will be Accompanied with Wireless Charging

iPhone Wireless Charging
Any device that requires charge so that it becomes eligible to let its users get all the privileges fed in it, troubles its users with the problem of charging. iPhones are the best of the smartphones available in the market and the brand that produces it, is bent on providing utmost benefits to their users. Because of so many enticing features in iPhone, it is the best in the field, but apple is trying to take the notches a bit higher by eliminating the process of plug in, this would raise the standard of charging in iPhones and will introduce a new era of lightning connector.

Apple is known for introducing new and developed technologies in the market. We are all familiar with USB, that had a cold start but when Apple clubbed itself with iMac then the results were like an erupting volcano, there was none left who was not aware of this device. Wi-Fi, is another name to a developed device that had a large market before being thrashed by a competitor called HomeRf.

News are such that Apple have forged an association with Wireless Power Consortium, a rumor has surrounded the planet that Apple is almost at the verge of adding wireless charging to iPhones, Apple will be the biggest producer to do if they manage to put up such a magnificent innovation, but it is sure that they cannot do it single handedly rather they might do it with the help of first-party accessory.

There is still isn’t any confirmation on this news. It was like one member from the board of the Blu-ray Disc Association who had never forged any association with a Blu-ray drive. Possibilities are also there that Apple might have reserved wireless charging, as it is a tactic used by many to create buzz by leaking the news in the market so that it arouses interest among the users, as Apple has done it for several devices like the Apple Watch. Whereas, the company to introduce Qi to iPhone would lead to a wide variety of implications.

As the rumors regarding iPhone 8 is swirling the entire market, Apple have tried and forged new plans so that wireless charging will start from now and the users would not have to wait for iPhone 8 to be launched in the market they can avail the facility of wireless charging on their current models of iPhones.

Apple associating itself with Qi is a major plan as it might benefit the performance of the standard in some ways. This combination would be surprising and people will look upto it that what it will have in store for their customers. It is suggested that this association would be really beneficial as it would lead to quicker charging of iPhones along with a wide variety of other features. They are also planning to forge a compatibility with other vendors of phone as well, so that the implementation can be conformed as soon as possible.

Apple Reaches new High in the Stock Market

q3
You just have to do a bit of research to discover the company Apple, founded in 1976, is described by many as a mind-blowing company when it comes to technology.

It Hasn't all been Plain Sailing 

Apple's value, determined by its stock price, is in the region of $728 billion. Small wonder that many organisations rank it as the world's most valuable brand, and in fact on the Forbe's list, it was ranked as twice as valuable as Microsoft.

It hasn't all been plain sailing for Apple, because in May 1985, the company experienced once of its biggest dips in the AAPL stock price, sinking to $18.12 after Steve Jobs tried to oust CEO John Sculley. From 1994 to 1997 Apple also experienced a difficult period as this is when other companies were catching up to their amazing innovation levels. A sum of $708 million was lost and stock hit a low of $4. This was a dark day for Apple as on September 29, 2000 stock prices fell 51.9% in just that one day.

It was in 1980 that Apple's IPO which stands for Initial Public Officering was $22, and after a day of trading, the first day in fact, shares rose to $29 and the Initial Public Offering was worth $75.5 million, consisting of more than 2 million shares.

In 2007 Apple launched the iPhone - the first mobile phone with so many high-tech features in one small device. In just one month, the stock price rose over 15%. More recently, the Apple iPad, with the portability and ease of the iPhone and much larger screen made its appearance and AAPL - Apple Stock - saw a 43% increase.

2017 - the World's most Valuable Company

In February 2017, Apple's stock has risen to about $135.09, passing its previous intraday trading high of $134.54 from April 2015. Apple's market value has now gone beyond $700 billion, entrenching the fact that it is the world's most valuable company.

Apple analysts are among a group of observers who believe Apple's stock remains undervalued and that it is likely to rise. They think that in 2017 Apple needs to come up with iPhones that customers want and not what Apple thinks they need. Apple (AAPL) is expected to have a good year in 2017, more so because of its 10th anniversary iPhone. The phone is expected to come redesigned with a glass enclosure and edge-to-edge OLED display.

Apple's Stock Prices more Accessible to Individual Investors

Apple stock has soared in February 2017 and investors are actually seeing that 2017 is a year of growth in Apple after a disappointing 2016. Apple needs to come out with new iPads and Mac desktops in 2017 and also get good reviews for these products.

Apple currently enjoys more press coverage than any company in the world, and there is always information on whether their stock should be bought or sold. Currently, its stock prices are more accessible to individual investors and those were never able to buy the stock can add it to their portfolio.

You can imagine that buying Apple stock will require having a reputable, knowledgeable online broker. CMC Markets is registered, regulated and award-winning and can help you open your online account to get trading.

You can't afford to be making mistakes with Apple and you'll want a trustworthy brokerage who have been around for years and with whom you have 100% confidence that your money will be safe with them. Once you have money in your stockbroker account, the world is your oyster and you can buy stock listed on NASDAQ, the New York-, Tokyo- and London Stock Exchange, among others from your own computer.
Apple stock is now selling, and once you have completed your purchase, you'll receive confirmation that the transaction has gone through. The thrilling part is you watching to see Apple stock go up up and away after you purchase it and your dwindling account rising simultaneously.

Is Apple Stock A Good Buy? 

That's the exciting part about stock trading - the risk and the thrill. Has Apple finally run out of innovative products? There are all sorts of rumours flying around but a look at the stock market in February 2017 shows that their stock seems to be trading in a pretty positive fashion lately and therefore seems like a good investment.

Apple is all set to launch the next generation of iPhone this year after being snubbed for not-so innovative iPhone 7 last year. For this year Apple will be launching iPhone with 4.7 and 5.5 inch screen only. The smaller version will possess the usual aluminum casing while 5.5 inch will come with an undisclosed material while the all new 5.8 inch model will boasts a stainless steel frame. This has been reported by DigiTimes which is Taiwanese and it is known for keeping a tight tab on the Apple’s supply chain.

Not one or two but three iPhones this year

Apple is set to release three different iPhone this year which has taken everyone by surprise. This report is being attributed to sources right from the upstream supply chain. The largest 5.8 new model of the iPhone will feature the Samsung popular OLED display which can easily take the price of this smartphone shooting over $1000.

Apple opting for the OLED display is a smart choice as OLED is praised for its better color accuracy, wider viewing angles, faster response times as well as improvement in image sharpness. The three devices are being rumored to be iPhone 7s, iPhone 7s Plus and the iPhone 8 or Apple might go with the iPhone X. Apple is simply keep the tradition intact regardless of the snubbing by launching the upgraded variant of the iPhone 7 along with iPhone 8 this year.

It will also come loaded with the wireless charging capability and there will be an incremental upgrade to the screen size from traditional 4inch to 4.7 inch display. While the 5.5 inch iPhones will go with the usual LCD display and aluminum design.

The second scenario is that Apple will go on adding lass casing as well as wireless charging for the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone 7s models. Certainly this device will still feature the OLED display along with the much needed longer battery life. Thereby the traditional aluminum design will be left only on the older range of iPhone lineup while the entire latest model from 2017 onwards will opt for the OLED display as well as stainless steel frame.

Over the last couple of weeks a large number of rumors has emerged which showcases a wide number of features which will found on the next iPhone. Apple is expected to remove the iconic home button, 3D camera features, substantial increase in the internal storage space, iris or facial recognition technology along with an improved IP68-rate water resistance.

Though Apple like always has not made any official confirmation for the upcoming features and all of these can be regarded as a mere speculation. Apple will start the production for the next iPhone by next quarter and it will be unveiled in September as always.
