You might be in a dilemma on which Apple product to buy and will it be the best for you. Well, in this article I’ll clear all your doubts and guide you to buy the perfect Apple ecosystem which is portable, very potent, and budget-friendly.
Criteria Used:
Daily Tasks- This covers the daily user work of web browsing, social media, reading emails, etc.
Productivity- Every individual has different productivity needs they search for, this ecosystem will be enough for most users.
Budget- Apple products are expensive, so not all of us can afford them.
Power- The raw power of the device can offer while maintaing optimal battery standards.
Ecosystem
1. iPhone 13/13 pro
The iPhone 13 is a delicate and compact phone with a powerful A15 Bionic Chip, 5G connectivity and 6.1 inch Super Retina XDR display, but if you want some more pro features to go for the iPhone 13 Pro with an extra 12MP telephoto camera, 120Hz promotion display, 28 hours of video playback and with ProRes video feature (if you buy 256GB variant). You can also consider to buy iPhone 12/12 pro though you might not get as good battery life and camera quality as iphone 13/13 pro.
2. M1 MacBook Air (Majority Users)
Now the MacBook was a tough choice as the new M1 pro and M1 max MacBook Pro was recently released but the M1 MacBook Air is still the go-to laptop for the majority of users with its lightweight sleek wedge-shaped design. Even the base model MacBook Air with 8GB RAM, 8-Core CPU, 7-core GPU and 256GB storage is sufficient for the majority of daily users as MacBook Air can handle so heavy tasks gently.
CAUTION- Do not buy the M1 MacBook Pro as it has comparable performance with MacBook Air and the extra money is not worth it.
3. 14-inch M1 Pro MacBook Pro (For Professional Users)
The base model 14-inch M1 Pro Macbook pro is probably the best overall laptop out there even though it is a bit expensive but it’s definitely worth it. I would recommend this laptop to those professional users who spend a lot of their time on video editing, photo editing, 3D designing, etc. This laptop is fully packed with a great display with promotion technology, monstrous performance, and insane battery life and now to mention all those ports it comes with.
4. 11-inch M1 iPad Pro (For Now)
The iPad was not hard to choose from as there was already a clear winner which is the 11-inch M1 iPad Pro. With the pro-level performance of the M1 chip, better camera system and a 120Hz promotion display, the iPad Air(2020) can’t even keep up with this device until of course a new iPad Air comes out. I would only recommend you to buy the 12.9-inch M1 iPad Pro if you are an artist and want a bigger display or you watch a lot of video content and want to have the Mini LED display but still the 11-inch model will do great in those tasks too.
5. Apple Watch Series 6/SE
Apple Watch is probably the most famous smartwatch out there and if you’re looking for a compact and user-friendly watch then my recommendation is Apple Watch Series 6. You get all the ‘useful’ features of the Apple Watch Series 7 and a lesser price but Apple Watch Series SE is also a great watch and the most budget-friendly but it lacks the blood oxygen app and ECG app.
6. Airpods (3rd Generation)
The most famous headphones recently got a fresh upgrade and with longer battery life than the Airpods Pro of 6 hours on one charge and also the soothing spatial audio feature but it misses noise cancellation so if you travel a lot then these might not be the best fit for you.
Apple Products Worth Waiting For:
1. 2022 iMac Pro
Rumours have been spreading around the tech community of a new Apple iMac Pro which will have latest M1 Pro and M1 Max chip or a new M2 chip also with a thinner black bezel Pro display XDR and similar port configuration as 2021 MacBook Pro.
2. 2022 MacBook Air
The New 2022 MacBook Air will have thinner bezels and match the new MacBook Pro in design with rumoured white bezels and keyboard and a new powerful M2 chip and 1080p Camera.
3. iPhone 14
iPhone 14 will undergo a lot of changes according to the rumours starting with Punchhole camera as they move Face ID under the display, a 48 MP primary camera and a new “periscope” lens technology that could allow for optical zoom up to 10x. Apple will also introduce the new A16 Bionic Chip and are expected to remove the lightning port with either USB-C or go with completely wireless charging.
