Apple just wrapped up its second big presentation of the year on Oct. 16, and we heard all about the latest iPads and Macs. The iPad Air 2 and iPad Mini 3 debuted at the event alongside the incredibly pixel-dense 5K iMac and the Mac Mini.

Now that the event is officially over, you will be able to watch the full presentation on Apple’s website. Apple hasn’t posted the video yet, but it should be up soon. You can also check out our full coverage of the event and the new products by clicking on the following links:

Apple made quite a splash this year with the iPhone 16 lineup.

The iPhone 16 series is available now, including the big and powerful iPhone 16 Plus. While you're choosing exactly what color you want for your shiny new phone, you should also look into a case to protect it from those times when you have butterfingers.

Here’s every iPhone and iPad that supports Apple Intelligence
Apple Intelligence on iPhone 15 Pro.

Apple's WWDC 2024 keynote was one of the biggest ones that the company had made in years. During this keynote, the company showed us what we'd be getting in iOS 18, which includes some big user-requested features like more home screen customization, RCS messaging support, and more. But that's not all — this is the first iOS that brings AI into the iPhone with Apple Intelligence.

Apple Intelligence, as Apple calls it, is a powerful suite of AI tools that will help make your life even easier. From new writing tools and summarization features to image generation and the ability to create unique emojis, Apple Intelligence definitely looks impressive.
