Leading the Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) rumor mill today is news of lowered iPhone orders in 2018. Today, we’ll look at that and other for Friday.
2018 iPhone: , reports 9to5Mac. According to this rumor, the tech company is cutting part orders for its 2018 iPhone lineup by 20%. This will specifically have it ordering parts for roughly 80 million devices. Last year’s iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X part orders were for more than 100 million devices. This may suggest that AAPL isn’t as hopeful for strong smartphones sales in 2018.
Display Resolution: ,
BGR notes. The publication points out that it has seen several iOS 12 devices accessing its website. Among them are some with a resolution of 496 x 896 in points, not pixels. This doesn’t match any current iPhone. However, it would maintain the same aspect ratio as the iPhone X. This would suggest a resolution of 1080 x 2336. The devices were likely a prototype, as they showed up in May.
Music: , reports MacRumors. This new update brings several new features to the app. This includes a “Coming Soon” section and launch dates for new albums. Another big change is for artist profiles. This updates them with new profile pictures styles, featured albums and a play button near the top of the page.
