Apple's latest product releases have generated significant buzz among tech enthusiasts and fans alike. The company has introduced two new earbuds, which are rumored to feature advanced health features, including heart rate monitoring. According to sources, these earbuds may be capable of detecting irregular heart rhythms and alerting users to potential health issues. This technology is reportedly more reliable than what's currently available on Apple Watches.

The release of these earbuds has also sparked speculation about the possibility of over-the-ear designs, similar to those offered by Beats. While there hasn't been any official confirmation from Apple regarding the design of their new earbuds, sources suggest that they may be offering a matte black finish and improved noise cancellation. Additionally, the wireless charging case is expected to provide users with more convenient and seamless listening experiences.

Meanwhile, rumors are circulating about the release date of these new earbuds. According to reports, Apple has received certification for the products, which suggests that they're on track for a release soon. However, there's no official word from Apple regarding the exact launch date or timing. Some speculate that the earbuds may be released in early 2019, possibly during an event like WWDC or the annual iPhone announcement.

In other news, Apple has announced the arrival of their latest iPad Pro models, MacBook Air, and Mac Mini. The iPads have received mixed reviews from critics, with some praising their power and sleek design but others noting that they're not quite ready to replace laptops entirely. The MacBook Air has also been panned for being largely incremental updates rather than truly groundbreaking changes.

However, the Mac Mini has received more positive feedback, particularly regarding its higher price point, which is now justified by all the features it offers. This new model is expected to hit stores this week, with users able to get their hands on it starting Wednesday. The arrival of these new products also means that last year's models are becoming increasingly cheaper, making them more attractive options for budget-conscious consumers.

Additionally, Black Friday deals have already started to emerge, offering discounts on the latest Apple products. While the iPhone 10R has not been selling as well as expected, with many devices only being produced at 45% capacity, this may be due to its higher price point compared to other models like the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus.

In another development, Apple Watch users can now breathe a sigh of relief as the bug in watchOS 5.1 that was causing issues has been patched out. The original update was intended to bring better emergency response features to fall detection on the Series 4, but it had to be retracted due to widespread problems reported by users.

Finally, news has emerged that Spotify may be coming to Apple Watch devices soon, a feature that many users have been eagerly awaiting for some time now. While no official release date has been announced, sources suggest that it could arrive as early as this week, although the beta test is still underway.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enearPod sequels and the reviews are in for Apple's newest products let's get right to the core of this week's Apple news and rumors we begin our show with a little product that hasn't gotten much airtime this year but could soon be getting its chance to shine the air pods those tiny wireless earbuds that we or at least I love to make fun of when Apple first announced them about two years ago and apparently now have become a cultural phenomenon seriously I am seeing these things everywhere in fact they just shot to the top of Best Buy's bestseller list for the month of October this according to a report by think gnam now the irony is that the other product in this bestseller list is that lightning to headphone adapter now the latest leaks suggest we could see a sequel very soon according to my smart price Apple has just received a mandatory certification from the Bluetooth special interest group or cig this is needed for any Bluetooth product to exist now this would pretty much confirms that there's a sequel in the works so the question then becomes when are we gonna see the sequel and what new features will it bring so let's start with that last one because we think we know a lot about what the new air pods would bring and it would be pretty much a given based on the filing that they would have bluetooth 5.0 which would allow for longer range more reliability and better battery life for the air pods the other feature that Apple has pretty much confirmed with its promotional video of the air power mat is that they will include a wireless charging case other features could include hands-free Siri waterproofing better noise cancellation and maybe a matte black version that would look sleek but according to the filing there wasn't just one but two models that were approved so what would that second one include we've also been hearing about health features coming to the airport's becoming gear bowls this can include a heartrate monitor like what you find on the Apple watch but in fact it might even be more reliable in the ear than on the wrists along with maybe other biometric data that could work alongside the Apple watch now the other rumor about these other ear pods is that they could be over the ear kind of like the beats and now the question about when so the fact that they've received the certification means it could be very soon and while they did miss out on the chance to launch them on the October event they could still choose to release them before the holiday shopping spree but my money is on early 2019 maybe in a spring event like what they did with the new iPads or at the very latest by WWDC I really don't think they would delay them until a September iPhone launch because in the meantime their competitors have already started to catch up nokia has launched a 79 version of the air pods while Xiaomi just launched a $30 version both with bluetooth 5.0 plus they need to deliver for all those people mourning the loss of the headphone jack on the new iPads and speaking of iPads the reviews are in for Apple's latest batch of products including those two new ipad pro's netbook air and Mac Mini and as to be expected it's kind of a mixed bag Apple has obviously chosen to feature the glowing reviews on its site but in terms of the iPad pro at least according to our own reviewer Scott Stein it is a powerful and sleek new device but it's not quite ready to replace a laptop now in terms of the MacBook Air it has all the updates that everybody wanted in that thin little laptop but according to our own Dan Ackerman it's also nothing new really and it's Apple kind of plain catch up to where laptops are in 2018 now with the Mac Mini it seems like the new higher price is actually justified based on all the things that this little machine can do the higher price on the other products though still on the chopping block these new products hit stores this week with users getting them starting Wednesday and so far the iPads are showing the longest delays with expected arrival times of late November into early December then the MacBook Air and then that Mac Mini which is still on track for a speedy delivery but to me the best thing about these new products is that they make last year's models even cheaper and the Black Friday deals have already started meanwhile rumor has it the iPhone 10r isn't selling out like hotcakes as many including Apple expected now according to a report in Japanese site Nikkei Foxconn Apple's manufacture has only been using 45 of the 60 assembly lines it had prepared to produce the 10r according to the same report that would translate into about a hundred thousand fewer devices Pegatron Apple's other manufacturer is cited as having similar issues as well but that doesn't mean Apple won't sell iPhones this holiday season by any means because the iPhone 8 and 8 plus seem to be in high demand Nikkei also notes that Apple has ordered more of these devices to be made to keep up with demand so either users still want that home button or they're not willing to spend as much on an iPhone eight costs a hundred and fifty dollars less than the 10r and $400 less than the 10s and in Apple watch news this week looks like the bug in watch OS 5.1 that was freaking some serious for watches has been fixed as Apple this week released a 5.1.1 version to patch things up now the original update was going to bring better emergency response features to the fall detection on the series 4 but it had to eliminate it almost immediately following the release after users were experiencing this problem now the bad news for users who did report the problem is that they had to send in their device and receive a replacement series 4 from Apple now another Apple watch news it seems like Spotify could be coming to a risk near you something Apple watch users have been begging for for a very long time now some users has already started posting pictures of what this would look like on the watch on reddit and although not a lot of people have the beta yet it means that it's coming that does it first show this week but I want to know
