 Is it better than the last? Apple’s newest tech release

Apple recently announced the new iPhone 17, the iPhone 17 Pro, and Pro Max. “I want the iPhone 17 because I have a broken camera, and I really like the new camera on the 17, and I think I would be able to take really great pictures with it.” BHS student, Jessica Collar, said. The iPhone 17 also features improved durability, with enhanced scratch resistance and reduced glare. The iPhone 17 is said to have extended battery life and charge faster. It has a larger display compared to the iPhone 16, with a 6.3 inch display. “iPhone 17 Pro is by far the most powerful iPhone we’ve ever made.” Apple Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing, Greg Joswiak, said. The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max are supposed to be extremely powerful. These phones can take much better pictures than the previous phones Apple has made. The camera on this phone is supposed to help take sharper and more detailed photos. These phones are similar, but also different with different sizes, storage options, cameras, battery life, and prices. There are definitely benefits of getting the pro or pro max, but they do come more expensive, still, all three of these phones come with great features. 

The new AirPods Pro 3 were announced on September 9th, and it was available for preorders on September 12th. “My experience with the AirPods Pro 3 is pretty good. The sound quality is great, you can hear everything. The design is very nice. They have different sizes of the silicone ear tips, which is very helpful. I think they are a lot better than the old ones.” BHS student, Manav Indar, said. They have twice as much active noise cancellation than the AirPods Pro 2. These AirPods are also said to have longer battery life. The battery on them can last about 8 hours of listening with noise cancellation and about 10 hours in more transparency modes. They now also include live translation. With these new AirPods, conversations can be had face-to-face while having languages translated during the conversation. Live translation is currently available in 5 languages, with more languages expected later this year. So far, the languages available now are English, French, German, Portuguese, and Spanish. These AirPods are not just an upgrade, but also show how useful wireless earbuds can be. 

The iPhone Air contains similar features to the iPhone 17, even though this iPhone has a larger display than the iPhone 17, with it being 6.5 inches and the iPhone 17 being 6.3 inches. The iPhone Air is the thinnest iPhone ever, measuring 5.6 millimeters thick. This phone was announced on September 9th, and preorders began on September 12th. The camera on this phone supports a wider field of view, smart framing, and dual capture. This phone also includes more storage than the iPhone 17. Some features that the iPhone 17 has, but the Air does not, are due to its slim size. This phone offers everything you would want in a phone and is the perfect size for anyone.
