The AirPods 3 have also received all kinds of audio functions, such as Spatial Audio. With this function you enjoy surround sound, in other words: sound that seems to move around you. The new AirPods 3 cost 199 euros and are available from this Tuesday.

Finally: macOS Monterey has a download date
It’s taken a long time, but in the midst of last week, Apple finally announced the release date of macOS Monterey. You can get started with the new software from October 25, this month.
macOS Monterey was announced at WWDC in June, but first went through a testing phase with a total of ten betas. Now (hopefully) all bugs have been fixed and everyone can install macOS Monterey.

iPhone 14 concept shows new design with hole in the screen
Apple is rumored to be working on a complete redesign for the iPhone, with the selfie camera hidden in a hole in the screen.
designer Ben Geskin forged the rumors together into a concept. In it we see an iPhone 14 without a notch, but with a camera hole. It is oval and a lot bigger than the camera hole at Android competitors.

iPhone 13 has already dropped in price considerably
The iPhone 13 has been in stores for less than a month, but it is already discounted. Last week we therefore listed the best offers.
There are interesting deals, especially in combination with a subscription. This is mainly because the (relatively low) device costs are not dependent on the subscription. So it doesn’t matter if you have a 2GB or unlimited internet bundle: the device price remains the same.
