Dear Reader,
September is always a fun month - full of new beginnings and exciting product launches.
Other than sending kids back to school (hurray!), the electronics industry conference lineup start with IFA in Berlin (the go-to Consumer Electronics conference if you’re trying to avoid the CES crowds), where the Samsung Gear S2 powered by CEVA was launched. But the highlight
was clearly Apple’s refresh of its product lineup under the theme “The only thing that changed is everything.” Sorry, but I don’t buy that.
A more accurate statement would be: “Our entire product lineup has changed, a bit!” Clearly the most interesting developments were the 3D touch feature in the iPhone 6S, as well as AppleTV as an open platform for app developers.
And leading on from this, what could we
expect from an iPhone 7? Keep reading the newsletter below to get our take on this, together with some other thought-provoking articles.
Enjoy and happy beginnings!
