Unbeatable iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max Deals: Get the Latest iPad Mini and Air Discounts Now
New Tech Arrivals: What’s Hot and What’s Not
As technology continues to evolve, companies like Apple, Samsung, and Amazon are always pushing the boundaries with their latest releases. So, what’s hot and what’s not? Let’s dive in and explore the latest offerings from these tech giants.
Apple’s New Generation: iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max
When the new generation of iPhones arrives, what happens to the old pros? In this case, third-party retailers like Amazon continue to sell these older models at discounted prices. Take the Apple iPhone 15 Pro, for instance. You can grab a 256GB unit for €1,130, which is €200 less than the equivalent 16 Pro model. Yes, you’ll have to settle for a smaller display (6.1" vs. 6.3") and a lower-resolution ultra-wide camera (12MP vs. 48MP), but it’s still a solid device.
Want to upgrade to the iPhone 15 Pro Max? You can snag a 256GB unit for €1,450, which is €220 less than the 16 Pro Max model. The older phone might have a smaller display (6.7" vs. 6.9"), but you’ll still enjoy the same tele camera and ultra-wide capabilities. Plus, the 15 Pro models lack the new Action Button and Camera Control, so it’s ultimately up to you to decide which one is the better choice.
iPad Minis and Airs: What’s the Difference?
Apple refreshed the iPad mini, bringing it up to speed with the latest demands of AI. The key changes include the Apple A17 Pro chip and double the RAM (8GB). So, should you opt for the iPad mini or its bigger sibling, the iPad Air 11 (2024), which is only €38 more? That depends on your priorities: larger screen size or portability. The iPad mini ships from Wednesday, so don’t miss out.
Samsung Smartwatches: Which One’s Right for You?
If you’re on the Samsung bandwagon, the Korean tech giant has a range of smartwatches to choose from. The Samsung Watch Ultra is built for adventurers, with the best battery life and a rating for divers up to 100m. The Galaxy Watch7 is more stylish and compact, with the same 1.5" display and features like ECG and blood pressure monitoring. For something more budget-friendly, check out the Samsung Watch FE, which is water-resistant up to 50m and offers ECG but not blood pressure monitoring.
Amazon’s Kindle Lineup: Colour Me Impressed
Amazon recently unveiled its first-ever colour Kindle, the Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition. With a 7" e-paper display, it can show 300ppi pixel density for black and white content and 150ppi for colour content. Perfect for reading comic books or highlighting text with different colours. The price tag is a bit steeper at €290, but if you’re willing to stick to traditional black and white, the new Kindle Paperwhite is a more affordable option, with the regular version starting at 32GB and the Signature edition at 64GB with wireless charging and a light sensor. The Coloursoft is the only e-reader with EINX8-rated water resistance, while the Paperwhite offers the same feature.
Finally, there’s the vanilla Kindle, which might be worth considering if you don’t need the extra features. With an 6" display and 300ppi pixel density, it’s still a solid choice. The reason to opt for the Paperwhite is the larger screen and water resistance, but the extra €60 might be a tough sell for some.
