Apple has added three models of iMacs to its list of obsolete products: a 21.5-inch screen from 2013, a 21.5-inch screen from 2014, and a 27-inch Retina 5K screen also from 2014.

Apple typically deprecates products seven years after they were released, so it’s no surprise that the 2013 and 2014 iMacs are on the list.

As for smart watches Apple Watch Series 2, they are recognized as “vintage”. This category usually includes devices that have been released for five years. There may be problems with the official repair of the aforementioned iMacs.

Startup Humane, founded by former Apple employees, has officially announced that its first products will be presented in the spring of 2023.

Former Apple designer Imran Chaudhry spoke at The Business of Fashion’s Voices 2022 conference about “the post-smartphone era and how artificial intelligence will change everything.” At the end of his speech, he confirmed the presentation of new products at the beginning of next year.

The teaser features a hand, the Humane logo, and the words “Spring 2023”. Presumably then we will see both wearables and the operating system or platform behind them.

Judging by the patents, teaser and previously released information, Humane is most likely working on an Android-based wearable device that projects an image onto your hand.

In addition, Chaudhry criticized smart glasses, stating that they “add a barrier between the person and their surroundings.” He believes that few people want to walk in this form.

Putting computation on our face not only makes us look funny, it doesn’t enhance our humanity either. Rather, it has a negative impact on our human connection because eye contact is an important part of human connection. It helps us understand each other and feel closer to others.

The smartwatch market grew by 30% in the third quarter, according to Counterpoint analysts. Against the background of falling demand in many other markets, this looks very impressive.

In this case, smartwatch refers to all devices in this market. But at the same time, sales of basic models devoid of an operating system grew by 35%, while the segment of full-fledged smartwatches grew by 23%.

India has made a huge contribution to the growth of the market. There, watch sales increased by 171%, making the Indian market the largest. For example, local company Noise, which leads the Indian market by a small margin, posted a 218% increase.

For comparison, Apple globally increased shipments by 48%, taking a total of 50.6% of the market. In second place is Samsung with a share of 22.3%, and Amazfit, Huawei and Garmin are also on the leaderboard.
