Hello everyone, I'm the digital blogger who can't hold back every time Apple has a new move. Today, we're going to talk about Apple's upcoming Vision Pro headset in early 2024, as well as some of its "secret**" patent cases. Yes, you heard it right, even the headset has to be dressed in small clothes, Apple is going to spoil it to God!
Apple has quietly won 70 design patents related to Vision Pro in Hong Kong, and it seems that it wants to protect its "appearance" from every angle. The protective cover in the patent drawing not only covers the front and sides of the device, but also uses a soft woven fabric, so that your Vision Pro can wear it like holding a soft kitten.
More than just a nice look, this case also protects the Vision Pro's Eyesight display from scratches and other damage. Moreover, a small pull tab on the left side is simply tailor-made for the "handicap party", allowing you to easily remove the protective cover without much effort.
In the global tech industry, Apple is always in the spotlight. Following the European Union, Japan may also soon ask Apple to open the sideloading feature. This means that Apple needs to allow users to install iOS apps outside of the App Store. Japanese regulators are preparing antitrust legislation that would require big tech companies such as Apple and Google to allow third-party app stores to exist and support alternative payment methods.
The European Union's Digital Markets Act (DMA) already requires Apple to implement sideloading by March 2024. Craig Federighi, Apple's vice president of software engineering, said that Apple will comply with EU regulations. However, Apple may decide whether to offer sideloading or not depending on the regulations in different regions.
The latest news shows that Apple is working on a new HomePod, and the biggest selling point is its curved LCD display. The device, codenamed B720, maintains a similar design to the current HomePod, but incorporates a curved convex LCD screen on top to display a variety of content.
Apple is working hard to make Apple Music and podcasts compatible with the new display. When a song or podcast is used, the screen will display a blurry animation effect that matches the color of the cover. This screen may also be used to display important notification information.
