Apple today filed unreleased iPhone and iPad models in the Eurasian Economic Commission database, as spotted by French blog Consomac.
The filings likely represent the rumored third-generation iPhone SE, fifth-generation iPad Air, and potentially more. The unreleased iPhone models have the identifiers A2595, A2783, and A2784, while the unreleased iPad models have the identifiers A2588, A2589, A2591, A2696, A2757, A2759, A2761, A2766, and A2777.
Eurasian Economic Commission filings like these have foreshadowed the release of new Apple products on numerous occasions over the years, including several Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPad Pro, Apple Watch, and AirPods models. The filings are legally required for any devices that offer encryption sold in Russia and select other countries.
The third-generation iPhone SE is expected to have the same design as the current iPhone SE, including a 4.7-inch display. Key new features rumored for the device include the same A15 Bionic chip as iPhone 13 models and 5G support.
The fifth-generation iPad Air is expected to adopt features from the sixth-generation iPad mini, including an A15 Bionic chip, 12-megapixel Ultra Wide front camera with Center Stage support, 5G for cellular models, and Quad-LED True Tone flash.

While the Logitech MX Master 3 is a terrific mouse for the Mac, reports claiming that Apple CEO Tim Cook prefers that mouse over the Magic Mouse are false.
The Wall Street Journal last month published an interview with Cook, in which he said he uses every Apple product every day. Soon after, The Verge's Wes Davis attempted to replicate using every Apple product in a single day. During that...

The iOS 18.1.1, iPadOS 18.1.1, and macOS Sequoia 15.1.1 updates that Apple released today address JavaScriptCore and WebKit vulnerabilities that Apple says have been actively exploited on some devices.
With the JavaScriptCore vulnerability, processing maliciously crafted web content could lead to arbitrary code execution. The WebKit vulnerability had the same issue with maliciously crafted...
Basically it’s an 11” screen, 256Gb of storage is enough for me, has Touch ID, and an LED screen that’s not mini, it’s cheaper than the Pros. I love mine & would hate the mini LEDs in the Pros because I use black mode and Pros are a blooming mess. I use mine for all my web browsing including this site typing onscreen. I research things that interest me, use the books or kindle app in landscape (2 pages on each screen) to read science fiction novels, buy stuff, pay bills, check the weather. I’m getting on in years an I need large type so the larger screen is needed & the price is right. It’s light enough to hold in one hand. I use this device more than any other in my home, it’s perfect for me. I’d be super pissed off at Apple if I’d been forced into buying an iPad Pro. At night the speakers are great for my white noise app that I sleep to, to shush the busy street and train noise. I could go on, but if you don’t think this product should exist, neither I nor Apple agree with you.
