Apple has new gadgets, yes&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->But it cannot be only Apple who brings out gadgets you might wanna have. Plus, also Apple has just done a refurb of their existing product line.<\/p>\n<p>These are the iPhone XS (Max), the Apple Watch Gen4, the iPad Pro 2018 and the updated Mac Book Air.<\/p>\n<p>But most of you already own at least one of the products mentioned above (maybe the previous generation of it) and thus there&#8217;s no need to update. Luckily Apple devices are still built to last a while but with the raising prices and the demand from stock shareholders to get even bigger dividends, it&#8217;s just a question of time when also Apple will consider producing less stable products or products that are in need of constant replacement just to please the stock shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of that, the Apple shares have fallen back to &#8220;just&#8221; 918 billion US$ market capacity. So Apple isn&#8217;t the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/?p=8052\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trillion dollar company<\/a> anymore.<\/p>\n<p>So anyways. Has anyone of you already found a good gift for your beloved ones? I guess many of you are still seeking out for the perfect gift. And even with the &#8220;Black Friday&#8221; areound the corner I suppose things won&#8217;t change that much. This year&#8217;smain presents might be from the HiFi section, such as 4K TV, High-End 9.2 Multichannel sound amplifiers and the like. This section had the most changes in 2018 and rectify an update to the home cinema.<\/p>\n<p>But IT wise, there&#8217;s just nothing special that makes one &#8220;Wow&#8221; and fork over thousands of dollars for new hardware.<\/p>\n<p>So while 2018 is almost over, let&#8217;s see what 2019 has prepared for the tech-savvy computer guys like us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So although xmas is around the corner lurking for people to buy presents for their beloved ones, it seems as there&#8217;s nothing special on the computer market which makes you voluntarily open your purse.
