Apple might delay the launch of iPad Pro for 2 days.
As per the Cult Of Mac, it has been reported that the iPad Pro 12.9’’ by Apple Inc. might not be launched on November 11, 2015. The much anticipated Apple device that was expected to be launched in a few days might just not reach users who really wanted to explore the possibilities with this device. However, users need not be sad since it has been reported to the publication house that the device will be launched on November 13, 2015 although two extra days are now being added but this is expected to be on par with the product launches done previously in the past. This also happened when the company’s recent set top box namely the Apple TV was launched.
On the other hand, the employees at the company’s Apple Store are now being trained so that they can gear up for the release of the new product contributing to the company’s legacy. The idea behind this training is to prepare the employees to answer all the queries regarding the product which the customers have. This actually makes a lot of sense since products launched on weekends tend to a lot of traction. At this point of time, the source for the Cult of Mac has not really unveiled whether Smart Keyboard and Apple Pencil will be launched with the tablet or later but if both the things are launched together then it will be more fruitful for the company.
The Apple iPad Pro is being discussed in the industry as a product that will target the creative junkies since it can be used for designing, animation and other similar purposes. This makes the device a must have at setups that fuel creative content such as Walt Disney. However, on a broader perspective, Microsoft is also coming up with its recent hybrid Surface tablet that is more flexible and can be used at the corporate space. So it will further ignite competition for the tech giant. If the company fails then this it will be the demise of the company’s tablet range since they are already not doing quite well already.
Many analytical publication houses also believe that this might also concur with the review tablets that have been given in the coming week. The Apple iPad has so far gotten mixed reviews from the reviewers where some claim that it might be a game changer whereas others believe that this might contribute to the company’s decline.

Are Ad Blocking Softwares Hurting Apple, Inc ?
Last week, Apple Inc. removed Been Choice, an ad blocker that blocked in-app ads on iOS, from the App Store. The tech company has recently announced to boost up the ad blocking business that has shown massive signs of taking over the ad industry and all the companies which are generally seen to earn from all such firms. The iPhone makers have decided to allow the availability of ad blocking apps to now be sold on the App Store, which will be allowing the users to experience an ad free surfing on the internet where all ads present on the browser will also be stopped and blocked. This latest update has been made to the newly update iOS 9, which has stirred up a feeling of fear among the companies that have been completely relying on business being carried out by the displaying of ads on the internet. Even though the giant has been receiving revenue from the ads as well, this step will still be taken by the firm. The main focus of this news is how the ad blockers are mainly going to affect the ad business that Alphabet has been carrying out lately, as the ad blockers will not be blocking the ads that are coming from the source of the iPhone makers, instead it will only be blocking the ads given by the search engine giant on the iOS software which is sure to give the tech giant some massive problems. The Been Choice ad blocking app that was blocked by the iPhone 6 Plus makers has been done due to the kind of technology that the app was offering to the users. The software giant discontinued selling the app in only a matter of few days, since the time of initiation. This app was found to be as a great one to block off ads on all kinds of browsers as well as on the mobile browser present on the iOS. The technology revolved around how the app kept a close look at the information coming in from the browser to filter the relevant ads accordingly. Even though the app wanted to still be there in the Apple Store to get bought, the giant seemed to have other plans as it ended all ties with it. Some analysts are also of the view that the software giant underwent such a change only to because it did not want an ad blocking app to hinder its process of receiving revenue from displaying ads on the internet.

Apple Watch Will Be Available In Best Buy To Boost Sales
Apple Watch will be available in the Best Buy stores from August 7, which is expected to increase in sales for the company.
Apple Watch is expected to be launched on August 7, in collaboration with Best Buy Co. (NYSE:BBY). Around hundred Best Buy stores have recently been privileged to sell the giant’s new most-talked-about product in their stores, as well as in their e-commerce platform.
This is the first time in US that an outlet is getting an opportunity to sell Apple Watch officially. It is useful for consumers, as they can easily buy these items from nearby Best Buy outlets. At first, it was only available on company’s website through the online orders in April.
Apple Watch is a very well-constructed smartwatch that is ever seen. Like most of other smart watches, it is not just a separate device, but also a phone accessory. Android Wear, Samsung Gear, Pebble, and others work in similar way.
Initially, Best Buy will hold 16 Apple Watch models of sizes, 38mm and 42mm, along with accessories including the watchbands, but the retailers will not offer the ‘Apple Watch Edition’ because it is considered as the most luxurious item. Therefore, it is only limited to particular ‘Apple Store’ and high-end sellers.
Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple says, “We’re very confident because the Watch is one of the key, top gifts of holidays, and we wish to spread it as much as we can.” He further said that the sales of watch did exceed his expectations.
Analysts and some market experts estimated that initial sales of watch would be low. However, iPhone makers have not disclosed sales figure up till now. Senior Officer of Best Buy says, “Apple Watch will be a massive addition to all stores as well as our website. We are happy to pass Apple watch to more customers because we know consumers are waiting and they like it.”
The corporate giant has rejected to provide any real sales figures for the new product. It has already sold approximately 4 million watches up till now, various firms had calculated. Strategy Analytics states that the whole smartwatch industry – including Pebble, LG, and Motorola have sold around 4.6 million in the year 2014, and almost 5 million this year, before the Apple Watch’s entrance.
Currently, 19 countries have official permit to sell Apple Watches, also planning to dispatch in Russia, Turkey, and New Zealand as well. This might raise the bar for the competition and company itself. The company is attempting to take care of its product line.
