New MacBook Air, iPad Pro & Mac Mini Unveiled At Apple Brooklyn Event

Source: Stephanie Keith / Getty Led by Tim Cook, Apple ditched its usual Cupertino Campus location and brought its act to Brooklyn to unveil the company’s worst kept secret—the new environmentally safe MacBook Air, iPad Pro, and Mac Mini models. Techies and Apple fans flocked to BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music) which is conveniently located next to Apple’s newest state of the art store to get the first glimpse of Apple’s new line of products. New MacBook Air The MacBook Air was in dire need of need of a proper upgrade or a replacement, and this new model is what people have been waiting for. The new MacBook Air is 2.75 pounds making it lighter than its predecessor which weighed 2.96 pounds. It features a 50 percent thinner bezel, retina display, 13.3-inch display, two USB-C ports, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Basically, it’s now a MacBook Pro in MacBook Air body minus the touch bar. It now has Touch ID for secure logins and is powered by the T2 series chip which is also found in last year’s MacBook Pro and iMac Pro. Inside it ships with up to 16GB of RAM, and 1.5TB SSD alongside a powerful 8th Gen Intel dual-core CPU with integrated graphics. The base model of the MacBook Air comes with 8GB RAM, a 1.6GHz Core i5, and a 128GB SSD and is on sale for $1,199 starting today. New Mac Mini The Mac Mini hasn’t seen an upgrade since 2014 so its safe to say this has been a long time coming. While the new Mac Mini may look the same on the outside, it is boasting some significant upgrades on the inside. The new model now has a quad-core 8th Gen Intel processor, and a six-core Intel Core i7 model. Another significant change from the previous model is the new Mac Mini will support up to 64GB of RAM with every model featuring flash storage with up to 2TB of space. Like the new MacBook Air model, it will also have the T2 security chip and will be modernized thanks to having a bevy of new ports. On the back of the new Mac Mini, there are Ethernet, HDMI, two USB-A ports and our USB-C Thunderbolt 3 ports. Starting at $799 the base model goes on sale November 7th and will ship with a quad-core Intel Core i3 processor, 8GB RAM, and 128GB of SSD storage with room for configuration. New iPad Pro Last but certainly not least the new iPad Pro which is apparently the next device not called the iPhone where Apple is putting most of its attention into. The long-rumored new model sports a complete redesign with a much more slimmed-down look, Face ID, USB-C port ditching the lightning connector. Also gone from the new model is the classic home button meaning it now utilizes the gesture navigation first introduced with the iPhone X as well as Face ID and the TrueDepth camera setup. The new iPad Pro comes in two sizes 11 inches ($799) and 12.9 inches ($999) that sports Liquid Retina Display alongside Apple’s ProMotion technology that will provide smooth and fluid display performance. Thanks to Apple’s new A12X Bionic chip with an 8-core CPU and 7-core GPU the new iPad Pro boasts 35 percent faster single-core performance as well as a significant 90 percent bump in speed for performing multicore tasks. The headphone jack is now gone, and if you want to use wired headphones, you will have to purchase a USB-C to headphone dongle. If you’re into gaming on your tablet, the new iPad Pro is the way to go because it boasts “Xbox One S class graphics performance in a package that is much smaller” thanks to its powerful GPU according to Apple’s Jon Ternus. Alongside the iPad Pro a redesigned Apple Pencil ($129 ) that features new touch gestures and ditched its old charging method for new wireless one by magnetically attaching it to the iPad Pro thanks to series of magnets installed inside the device. The new Smart Keyboard Folio was also unveiled that will allow users to type in various angles but the price has gone up to $179. Even though Apple still has interest in its MacBook Air model, it seems they are focused on making the iPad the replacement for the desktop and the laptop. With CEO Tim Cook pointing out the device outsold the biggest notebook vendors Apple ditching the MacBook and other desktop models would seem almost inevitable. — Photo:  Stephanie Keith / Getty

Lil Yachty Won’t Collab With Nicki Minaj Because He’s Team Cardi B

Visit link:

Source: Prince Williams / Getty Lil Yachty has chosen a side. In a recent interview, the Atlanta rapper relayed that he wouldn’t collaborate with Nicki Minaj out of respect for Cardi B.  The fact that Lil Boat and Bardi have the same management is also a factor. Reports TMZ : Our Raquel Harper chopped it up with Yachty for Tuesday night’s episode of “Raq Rants” on BET … and he told her while he’d love to work with Nicki … he’d have to turn her down, ’cause he and Cardi are signed to the same management team, Quality Control Music. It sounds like Yachty doesn’t want to get in the middle of CB and NM’s ongoing feud — which picked up steam again this weekend after Cardi’s sis accused Nicki of leaking Cardi’s number … and Nicki reportedly offered fans $100k for footage of their fight to clear her name. Well look at that, Yachty ain’t no fool. — Photo:  Getty

Beyoncé To Settle Lawsuit Over Feyonce Clothing Line

Read the rest here:

Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty Beyoncé launched a copyright infringement lawsuit two years ago against a Texas clothing line that used her name to hawk products. It appears now that both sides are working on a settlement in the matter. The Blast reports : According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Beyoncé is requesting a hearing scheduled for November 1 to be adjourned. The singer explains, “The parties have met and conferred regarding settlement and are currently involved in advanced negotiations that the parties anticipate will resolve this matter shortly.” Beyoncé says she does not expect the case with the owners of Feyonce to go to trial after all. The settlement talks come just weeks after a federal judge shut down the pop superstar by denying her motion for an injunction against Feyonce, in the case that has dragged on for years. The outlet adds that the judge in the matter does not freely accept Beyoncé’s assertion that people buying Feyonce products would be confused by the two brands and assume she has anything to do with endorsing those products. The Feyonce owners say they never once used images of the singer, nor have they attempted to frame themselves as connected to that brand. The two sides are set to lay out their terms in court on November 15. — Photo: Getty

Welp! Nicki Minaj Says Rah Ali Beat Up Cardi B ‘Bad,’ Offers $100,000 For Video Footage

Source: Ben Gabbe / Getty I am not sure what is going with the world, but what I do know is that Nicki Minaj’s radio show “Queen Radio” is back…and on Monday she spilled some serious tea! See, apparently someone has been sending Cardi B some disturbing death threats, which led Cardi’s sister  Hennessy to blame Nicki for leaking the “I Like It” rapper’s phone number to her fans. Nicki, who claimed that she wanted her Beats 1 show to be a drama-free zone, reneged on that sentiment and got super messy, telling her listeners that she didn’t leak anyone’s number and that when it comes to the Harper’s Bazaar Icons party during NYFW , Cardi didn’t get attacked by security as it was once reported, but that Nicki’s homie Rah Ali  allegedly whooped her nemesis’ tail. And whooped it good, the former Love & Hip Hop New York reality co-star did. “For people who don’t know, Rah Ali beat Cardi’s a$$ really bad. You went home and told people that security hit you. We told Rah not to say anything for legal reasons,” Nicki said. She added, “Ra held her head and punched her like eight, nine times, and I could hear it, I’m talking like the hardest punch you’ve ever heard in your life.” Source: Steven Ferdman / Getty Nicki wasn’t done, assuring her audience that there is video of the fight somewhere out there that will back up what she’s saying. “There is no way I can lie about this because there is surveillance footage from the building where the assault took place,” she said. “Anyone that want to put up the surveillance footage, I will give you $100,000. Pull up that surveillance footage.” She also had words for Cardi’s little sis Hennessy who on Sunday accused Nicki of  leaking the new mom’s number. “What type of bird s— you on, bitch? I didn’t leak your number. Stop lying on me,” she snapped. “You can’t lie on me, leaking numbers. Now you know the truth. Your big sister came home and lied to you, now what?” Source: Jamie McCarthy/VMN18 / Getty However, despite all this Sweet Valley High nonsense, Nicki insists that she wants to put this silly feud behind her, for good. “I’m perfectly fine with never talking about this again. I’m perfectly fine with never bringing this up again if you never bring this up again,” she said, later adding, “I think we can agree to have disagreed on a few things. I don’t look at you as my enemy. Let’s move past it.” See it all for yourself: THIS IS KNOT A DRILL!

Mother Of Missing 2-Year-Old Charged With Abandonment

See the rest here:

(Hazana Anderson CBS DFW) A Texas mother who reported her 2-year-old missing is now in jail and has been charged with filing a false report and abandoning and endangering a child. CBS reports on Sunday morning Tiaundra Kae Christon told  College Station police that her toddler was missing from a local Park. Police said Christon’s story was that she went to her car to get a bottle for the baby, Hazana Anderson, and when she returned Hazana was no longer in her stroller. Investigators reportedly later determined Christon was not providing truthful information regarding the incident. She was reportedly charged with abandoning/ endangering a child because Christon placed the  child  in an environment, “near a body of water”, that posed a potential risk to the safety of the child. Police say Hazana was last seen wearing a black long-sleeve shirt with gold  writing  that says “Girl Squad,” a green jacket, cream-color ruffled pants and pink socks and sneakers. If you have any information about 2-year-old Hazan should call CSPD at (979)764-3600.
