5 Things To Expect From Apple's Big Sept. 10 Event


On Tuesday, Apple will host its first event since its Worldwide Developers Conference in June. The company says the event should "brighten everyone's day.
But what exactly will Apple reveal today? Here's some of what the Cupertino tech giant may have up its sleeve.

1. iPhone 5S

The rumor mill leading up to tomorrow's event has been working overtime for the "iPhone 5S." The expected new iPhone is said to be the same size as the iPhone 5, and might come in gold -- and be made of Liquidmetal, an "indestructible" alloy that's twice as strong as titanium. One possible major improvement is the inclusion of a fingerprint sensor embedded into the convex home button, a "big headlining feature" for the 5S according to Cult of Mac. The phone may also feature a 12-megapixel camera with dual flash for better photos in low light, and 128 GB of storage.
Sound like the 5S could be pricey? Apple may have something in mind for you:
2. iPhone 5C

The budget iPhone, rumored to be labeled the "iPhone 5C," could make its (colorful) debut at Tuesday's event. The more affordable version of Apple's smartphone is said to be an iPhone 5 variant that will come in multiple colors and feature a plastic shell.Though a price for the budget iPhone is currently unknown, it's seen as Apple's way ofmaking a bigger splash in emerging markets such as China and India.
3. iOS 7

Apple already previewed its biggest iOS overhaul since the launch of the iPhone in 2007 with iOS 7 at WWDC, but chances are good we'll get an even closer look at the system tomorrow. Johnny Ive's design for iOS 7 features flatter icons, brighter colors and gradients, along with new APIs and features. The new operating system will be available on the iPhone 4, 4S, and 5, the fifth-generation iPod touch, the iPad 2, iPad mini, and both Retina iPads. Release trends for past operating systems indicate iOS7 be available later this month.
4. Apple TV

Though rumors for the iPhone 5S and 5C have been bubbling for a while, news of an Apple TV refresh only began gaining real traction a little less than a week ago, when reports of overseas shipments appeared to indicate changes in the works. Though other details are scarce, Apple CEO Tim Cook promised a "grand vision" for televisionin May, and Apple bought the TV app startup Matcha.tv in August.
5. Who knows?
question mark
Bloggers and Apple-watchers can pile together all the Apple rumors they'd like, but at the end of the day the element of surprise cannot be underestimated. In May, Cook promised more "game changers," hinting at a desire for wearable tech among other things. As investors grow weary of Apple's lack of innovation and new products, there's always the chance the company could reveal something entirely unexpected tomorrow.
You'll have to stay tuned to find out

  Wikimedia Commons It's more than halfway through 2013 and even though the summer is winding down, there's still plenty of time to book a trip to a great destination. We looked at major developments, cultural trends, and global festivals to find the hottest places to travel around the world in 2013.

Samsung reportedly close to releasing Glass competitor — and Google’s involved

This one is definitely a rumor, but its source is reliable enough to warrant a little speculation. Analyst and blogger  Eldar Murtazin  tweeted a rather definite message this week that Samsung is “developing [its] own version of Google Glass. We will see it (probably) around April – May under Gear Glass brand.” Given that Google’s own version of Glass is not expected to hit the mass market until early 2014, Samsung’s Glass competitor could very well race Google’s to market. That might seem like a nightmare for Google, which has invested heavily in Glass and is no doubt planning for a strong event launch, but as was pointed out in a CNet article, the use of the word “Glass” implies an official partnership. Samsung is known for its aggressive branding and Google would likely raise legal concerns regardless, so it’s unlikely the brand Gear Glass would be used without a partnership. Does Google even want to sell Glass, or does it just want you wearing face-screens? ...
