Apple Special Event: iPhone 11 Trio, Apple Watch Series 5, Apple TV+ Pricing, and More Unveiled



Apple on Tuesday unveiled new cheaper watches and iPhones and refreshed the entry-level iPad. But it also announced the pricing and release dates for new subscription services, including its long-awaited Netflix rival Apple TV+ - new ways for Apple to keep squeezing more money from consumers.

If there was one takeaway from Apple's big iPhone event Tuesday, it's that Apple really wants you to own its products, no matter what you've got in your bank account.

The latest lineup of iPhones adds more cameras for better photo quality, improved battery life and an appealing price tag. The iPhone 11, which has two cameras, starts at $699 (Rs. 64,900 in India) - less than the $1,000 at which Apple has priced its main new phone the past couple years, and potentially priced to woo consumers on the fence about buying the newest Apple offering. That $1,000 price point now belongs to the iPhone 11 Pro, which has three cameras.
With slowing iPhone sales, Apple has been turning to its growing selection of services to help bring in more revenue. On Tuesday, the company announced the pricing for two of its newest subscription products launching this year: Apple Arcade and Apple TV+ (both Rs. 99 a month in India).

If you go all in on every Apple offering, you could pay the company $479.40 a year. That's for Apple MusicNews+iCloud, Apple TV+, and Apple Arcade. It doesn't include Apple Care (another $9.99 a month for the basic option), or any of the money you might spend on à la carte books, movies, TV and apps from the App Store.

Apple announced the seventh generation of its main iPad: a new 10.2-inch device with 3.5 million pixels that weighs about a pound. It has a smart connector to pop it onto a keyboard, works with the Apple Pencil, and runs on iPad OS - Apple's recently announced version of its mobile operating system optimised for iPads. The device costs $329 and ships September 30. There are now four iPads in Apple's lineup: the new iPad (called just "iPad," like Cher) iPad mini, iPad Air, and iPad Pro.
