The end of this year 2018 is coming and it is time to make a little summary about what we have seen during the year in terms of Cupertino company launches. We can say that it has really been a full year in terms of products and a bit fair in terms of software, but it has not been a bad year for the followers of the brand either.
We started the year strong and finished stronger. March with the arrival of the new iPad 2018 at interesting prices especially for students and we have finished the year with the new iPad Pro, Mac mini and MacBook Air, so we cannot complain too much even though there are products that we have not seen. arrive as the Mac Pro or a renewal on the 12-inch MacBook ...
We are going to focus our attention on the best device launches of this 2018
Obviously we have several products that can be considered as the best launches in this 2018 and that is why today we want to see some of them. For each of us, one device can be better or worse than another, so talking about the best releases is always complicated, despite the fact that Apple's releases are always popular, not all products fit our needs, but it is true that some they are better than others.
In this case, we simply have to look at the products that have succeeded in most cases, so choosing the most outstanding of the year may be a little easier task than many of us believe. The Apple Watch Series 4 can be among the first of the ranking, the iPad 2018, the iPad Pro 2018 or even the Mac mini would be one of the best releases of the year at Apple.
The Apple Watch Series 4
In this case, one of the main ones we can say has been the Apple Watch, yes, Apple's smart watch this year met the expectations of all users and may be one of the most important products of the year for the company in terms of to sales. It is also a product that received changes in all senses and the specialized media have focused on the watch to say that this could be the ultimate Apple Watch.
The speed of the processor, the new size of the screen, the ability to use the straps of our old Apple Watch or simply the general design change suffered by the device are some of the reasons why for us this is undoubtedly the best of the devices launched by Apple this 2018. The watch meets all the expectations desired by users and added to the new watchOS make it finally a really powerful watch. It is true that the Series 3 was a good watch in many respects, but the Series 4 surpasses any previous smartwatch, good work Apple.
The iPad 2018 and the new iPad Pro
Undoubtedly, the new iPad for students presented in March were important both for their price and for the moment in which they were launched. In that presentation, iPad users were really surprised by the new iPad but what really surprised was the change in design, power and other innovations implemented in the iPad Pro 2018.
All these iPads are undoubtedly important in Apple's 2018 year but the ones that have taken all the interest and looks have been the new models presented a few months ago, the Pro. These new iPad Pro are a bit like the Apple Watch Series 4 , the USB C port, a better design, much more power, a reduced size with a larger screen and above all, an iPad focused on the professional sector thanks to the performance and portability what are you offering.
In the case of the iPad Pro there is also a negative note and the problem is that these teams bend relatively easily due to the materials used and the design of the iPad itself. The Cupertino company claimed that these teams even had the possibility of coming somewhat bent directly from the factory and this raised a stir at the end of this year in the specialized media and affected users. The company takes charge if the iPad Pro comes to us bent but this is something to improve for the following versions. Despite all this The iPad Pro is another of Apple's best launches this year.
Mac mini and MacBook Air, the best of Mac
Finally this year we cannot forget the new Mac mini and MacBook Air presented by Apple. These two new computers become part of those Macs that Apple renews after a long time without updating and the truth is that they may be among the best releases of the year.
Both teams manage to rejuvenate Apple's history and in the case of the Mac mini it also commits itself to the maximum power for an Apple desktop computer. The little one stops being so little and with a powerful configuration it can reach the height of an iMac Pro, so we are not facing a true "mini" in terms of power ... The exterior of the equipment is the same, it does not change physically but inside it hides a true Mac in its most powerful models.
The MacBook Air is another of the teams that the guys from Cupertino have renewed and although it is true we can say that it is between a MacBook 12 and a MacBook Pro, the team seems to have achieved its niche in the market due to its name and what represents for Apple users. The MacBook Air has, above all, improvements in the design, screen and adds the USB C ports that we hope so much will come to the iPhone. In short, it is another one that seems to us to get a place in the best of the year and we hope that it will continue to receive updates more often.
Going through the iPhone XR, XS and other products of this year we can say that in terms of hardware we are served. The truth is that the MacBook Air, the Mac mini and the new equipment launched by Apple this 2018 we have liked even though we always want more and we would have loved to see a new iMac, the one already delayed a couple of times Mac Pro or even the famous AirPods wireless charging box, but all this and much more is what we hope to see for the next 2019, so attentive to soy de Mac because next year we will be at the foot of the canyon seeing and sharing the news of the company with all of you.
