It's time for the Apple Watch

SAN FRANCISCO - We've been covering the Apple Watch since it was first announced in September, at the event that also launched the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, and Apple Pay.

After months of hype, the Apple Watch is almost ready for launch.

So as Apple prepares to have a more in-depth unveiling of the watch Monday, we decided to pull much of our Apple Watch coverage into one place.Here's what we know: the smartwatch from Apple will go on sale in April, with three editions starting at $350. The second-tied "Sport" edition is expected to sell for $500 or so, while the top of the line, 18-karat gold edition could sport anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000. This is Apple's first new product category since 2010's iPad, and the watches are expected to sell between 10 million and 20 million units in the first year.

Analysts expect big first year sales for the Apple Watch, which is being released in April.

Apple consumers know that every year, the company says it's new version of a product is lighter, smaller, faster and just way better than the year before. That's not how watches are sold. They are supposed to last a lifetime. How will consumers feel about buying a watch with a limited shelf life?

The Apple Watch is projected to become the biggest seller in the growing wearables category. We explore the other options to date--including the Fitbit, Jawbone and smartwatches from Samsung, LG and Pebble

Voice Calling Test

Which voice calling app uses the most data per minute? We tested the top 10 Free voice call apps, which use data to place calls, can offer a cheaper way to keep in contact with friends abroad and come to the rescue when you’ve used up your monthly minute quota. However, with multi-gigabyte data plans still often coming at a premium price, the busiest chatters out there could soon eat into their monthly allowance using voice over data calls. To shed some light on the issue, we’ve gone back over our list of 10 free call apps to investigate just how much data these apps end up consuming. In the list you’ll find popular apps such as Hangouts, Skype, WhatApp and Viber, as well as regional favourites including Line and Nimbuzz. The test method For our test, we subjected each of these 10 apps to three separate one minute calls and recorded the amount of data used by the app after each call. These three totals were then averaged together to produce the result. Bo...

Apple Drone

Here's what an Apple drone might look like Many major tech companies are eyeing drones — Amazon, Google and even Facebook. It's unclear at this point whether Apple wants in, too, but one designer has envisioned what the company's version of a drone might look like if it ever launched one. German designer Eric Huisman mocked up a sleek drone concept called the Apple Quadcopter , which has a minimalistic black-and-white design. It's very, well, Apple . In a series of photos posted to his website , which are stylized to look like Apple's traditional promotional pictures, the company's iconic logo sits in the middle of a slightly curved body, an element that Huisman says will support its many built-in cameras. Similar to a typical quadcopter, the Apple drone has four rotors and four cameras that can shoot still and panoramic photos (up to 100MP). The concept, which was first spotted by CNET , also incorporates 4K video functionality and built-...

Apple Car

Could This Be The Apple Car? There’s been plenty written about the potential Apple car. Now, though, we have an interesting guess as to what it might look like when it hits the road. This version is quintessentially Apple with smooth lines, tons of technology, and that iconic Apple logo prominently featured. These Apple car concepts were drawn up by CarWow ,and they include both interior and exterior design possibilities. It starts by taking a cue from Tesla with an absentee grille and flowing, aerodynamic lines that look a bit like the Magic Mouse. Colors are white, black, and gold in a nod to the newest iPhones with carbon-fiber reinforced plastics that include a coating to keep dirt from marring that perfect finish. The wheels are designed to cut drag and look good. The interior is where it suddenly looks like no other car. There’s a fingerprint-reading home button on the driver and passenger front doors and it’s all unlocked from the outside with a left to rig...
