Here’s what Apple will reveal:
Photos are personal, and no one knows this better than Apple, the company behind the acclaimed “Shot on iPhone” ad campaign. With that in mind, macOS Sierra boasts a new “Memories” feature, letting you rediscover favorite and forgotten moments from your library by automatically creating gorgeous slideshows and curated photo collections.
Here’s how to take advantage of this feature when running the latest Mac operating system, which is currently in public beta and will be released this fall.
CNBC’s Jim Cramer has been very bullish about AAPL in the past, but he’s not sounding so sure about the iPhone 7. In fact, on CNBC’s Squawk on the Street show this morning, Cramer said that there was the “least amount of hype” ahead of tomorrow’s Apple event for any iPhone debut he could remember.

The iPhone fell 4.4 percentage points to 14.3 percent for the three months ending in July, according to the latest figures from Kantar Wordpanel ComTech. Android, by comparison, rose 5.6 percent to a dominating 85 percent during that same time period, representing an all-time high for Google’s mobile OS in China.
The Apple Watch 2 is going to pack a much bigger battery if you believe a new video, which purports to show off the body of Apple’s next-gen smartwatch. Fortunately, the bigger battery is not going to make the device any thicker.

September 6, 2007: Apple deals with its first iPhone PR crisis, as early adopters complain about the company dropping the price of its new smartphone by $200 just two months after introducing it.
In response, Apple CEO Steve Jobs offers affected customers a $100 credit, which can be used toward the purchase of any Apple store product.
“Our early customers trusted us, and we must live up to that trust with our actions in moments like these,” he writes in an open letter to iPhone customers published on the Apple website.
Apple’s upcoming iPhone 7 series will deliver even greater 4K video recording at 60 frames-per-second, according to a new report. Both devices are also expected to offer Force Touch home buttons and new SIM trays designed to block out water.
Demand for the iPhone 7 is expected to be higher than many people expected, and Apple suppliers are taking on more employees to accommodate.
