The European Union will issue a final ruling ーbarring appeals ーon a decades long dispute over a tax deal between its own Commission and Ireland and iPhone maker Apple At stake is at least billion Euros billion in possible back taxes Apple s European headquarters located in Cork Ireland The court case has ramifications for Apple for much of its global business as the headquarters in Cork Ireland is Apple s headquarters for all of its non US commerce Apple and Ireland are fighting the EU over the legality of the tax deal the country made with Apple in Back then Ireland made a year tax deal with Apple that allowed the company to set up two subsidiaries within the same company rather than two completely separate companies to take advantage of a tax loophole Ireland had previously had an existing tax haven known as the Double Irish where foreign companies could set up two subsidiary companies in Ireland to handle different aspects of the main business Continue Reading on AppleInsider Discuss on our Forums |

For Apple devotees the biggest tech day of the year is finally almost here The Apple iPhone launch event It ll take place tomorrow September at PM ET in Cupertino CA and you can stream it live on YouTube or the company s website We ll also be live blogging the news and hopefully will get a chance to check out the new iPhone after the event nbsp The biggest news we re expecting from Apple s It s Glowtime event is the iPhone lineup Following past events we re also anticipating a new Apple Watch or two ーmaybe even three if Apple showcases a new SE Beyond that rumors have been swirling about a refresh of the standard AirPod earbuds And what about new M Macs HomePods iPad mini or even the baseline iPhone SE Some of those may hit later this year while others probably won t see the light of day until or beyond But until Tim Cook takes the virtual stage however everything is pure speculation With that said let s get into the most likely leaks and rumors ahead of the Apple event iPhone and iPhone ProNo matter what else happens these new handsets will take center stage during the Apple event That s good news for people ready for an upgrade The bad ish news The vast majority of leaks and rumors indicate that this will be another year of iterative improvements so don t expect a game changing new hardware feature Cherlynn Low EngadgetThere s likely to be four new models announced at the event which is similar to what Apple did last year The new phones will allegedly be called the iPhone Plus Pro and Pro Max according to industry analyst Mark Gurman This is the exact same naming convention as last year s iPhone reveal so the rumors of Apple adopting an iPhone Ultra moniker seem to have been greatly exaggerated Even if Apple doesn t use the Ultra naming the Pro models might be getting slightly larger screens which is always nice if you like big phones that is The regular Pro is likely to move to inches from inches while the Pro Max should hit inches an increase from inches Finally there will likely be a new color or two as always Bloomberg s Gurman suggests that Apple is ready to ditch the blue model in favor of the return of rose gold Separately toMac has reported on a new gold colored titanium hue for the iPhone Pro model Based on a source who apparently nailed last year s gray titanium color they are showing off what appears to be more of a dusky sand hue than gold On the hardware side of things look for a new chipset that takes advantage of the company s recent push toward AI also known as Apple Intelligence Beyond that the upgraded A chip will be an iterative improvement specs wise As is typical the Pro and Pro Max will likely get a more powerful chip than the standard models It looks like the base amount of RAM here will be GB so as to handle those aforementioned AI tasks It s also been rumored that the standard iPhone and iPhone Plus will get the Action Button a feature introduced last year for the iPhone Pro and Pro Max This multi purpose button is a direct replacement for the mute switch by default but can be adjusted to control a bunch of different things The Action Button can be used to to change ringer settings turn on the flashlight launch the camera and more Cherlynn Low EngadgetThere s also talk of another new button this one on the right side of the phone This will control camera features operating like a button on a DSLR Reporting indicates that a soft press will trigger autofocus and a harder press will take a photo Consumers may also be able to swipe along the button to zoom in and out while shooting photos or taking videos It s been reported that this camera button will only come with the Pro and Pro Max which makes sense since the high end models typically offer a more robust camera experience To that end new iPhones always get a camera spec bump but we don t know exactly what that will look like this time It s been reported however that the iPhone s camera module could be getting a design refresh Apple might be ditching the square and going with a vertical orientation This might only apply to the base iPhone and maybe the Plus as the Pro and Pro Max phones tend to place a much higher emphasis on photos and videos AppleWe already know what s coming on the software side of things thanks to the recent WWDC event Based on previous years iOS should be available within the week following the event The software update features a more customizable Control Center and Home Screen It ll also finally bring RCS support to iPhones As for Apple Intelligence you ll have to wait a bit It was announced as part of iOS but it s been delayed until iOS This isn t a huge deal as that OS refresh is expected in October but does mean that early adopters of the iPhone won t be able to fool around with AI right away The new iPhone drop may also spell the end of Apple s widely panned FineWoven case which was just introduced last year as an alternative to leather but has been criticized for durability issues Bloomberg s Mark Gurman recently reported that FineWoven inventory is getting low suggesting the company is either phasing it out or planning a refresh One leaker on the Saturday ahead of the event shared a look at an array of iPhone cases in neutral colors claiming these may be coming out in a new material to replace FineWoven Apple Watch Series and Apple Watch Ultra Ever since iPhone events have also included a deep dive on the latest Apple Watch This year looks to be no different As a matter of fact this is a big year for the Apple Watch We are coming up on the gadget s tenth birthday so there are conflicting rumors as to whether the next entry will be called the Apple Watch Series or the Series X No matter what it ends up being called Apple s next standard smartwatch is reported to have a bigger screen that s more in line with the Ultra It s expected that the company will ditch the mm form factor and introduce a mm design Rumors have also suggested that Apple has completely redesigned the band system and added new connectors This will likely make these straps easier to adjust but there s a downside This move could make it so all of those old bands no longer work Cherlynn Low EngadgetOf course there s going to be a new chip to power these watches but we don t have any specifics It s been suggested that these chips have been designed to accommodate Apple s recent foray into AI but that integration is likely to happen later on For now Apple Intelligence will be tethered to iPhone iPad and Mac There are likely to be two watches revealed at the event which are codenamed N and N It s possible one of these will be the Apple Watch Ultra though Mark Gurman at Bloomberg says the high end smartwatch won t get a major redesign this time out It ll likely be an iterative refresh On the software front it looks like Apple has run into some snags while developing long anticipated health tracking tools Health monitoring is one of the key features of the Apple Watch so the company has been working on new sensors to detect high blood pressure and sleep apnea However the tech will likely not be ready for this year s smartwatch Apple s also been developing a glucose sensor for almost a decade so who knows maybe it ll finally show up with the Series X Finally it s highly possible that Apple announces a new version of the budget friendly Watch SE This was last updated in so a refresh is overdue There has been some reporting that Apple will be swapping out the aluminum exterior with a rigid plastic shell This should help get costs down even further As it stands the Apple Watch SE is but Samsung s cheapest wearable is the Galaxy Watch FE Apple may want to compete closer to that price range nbsp Two new sets of AirPodsBilly Steele EngadgetIt s been reported that Apple s prepping two new variants of its standard earbuds According to a Bloomberg roundup that was published on September Apple will introduce an entry level model and a mid tier version which would effectively replace AirPods and AirPods The big news here is that both new AirPods versions are likely to transition to a USB C case to keep pace with the iPhone and the second gen AirPods Pro It s been suggested that the cheaper of the two forthcoming models would lack wireless charging but that the mid tier version would support this technology This is the same strategy Apple followed with previous generations so it makes sense The case for the more expensive AirPods may also include a speaker which would make it easier to find with Apple s Find My feature nbsp Both versions should feature similar designs though the mid tier variant is likely to support active noise cancellation like the Pro model If that s the case it s not really clear what s left to differentiate those earbuds from the AirPods Pro but we ll find out soon enough As for the AirPods Max there will likely be no refresh of Apple s high end Pro earbuds at this event It s been four whole years since these premium cans hit store shelves and they re still stuck using a Lightning port for charging so a refresh is long overdue Mark Gurman says they ll get USB C and new colors eventually but the timing remains unclear One more thingThe iPhone event doesn t typically have a one more thing moment but there s one piece of hardware that could get a surprise shout out It s been rumored that Apple is preparing a massive redesign of the Mac mini which would include ditching the USB A port according to Gurman Analysts have suggested that this will be the company s smallest ever desktop computer and could be around the same size of an Apple TV streaming box There will reportedly be two versions of the upcoming Mac Mini one with the standard M chip and another with the more powerful M Pro chip The base model is rumored to start shipping from suppliers this month so it s possible Apple will spend a few minutes on the computer at the iPhone event However don t count on it This is an event for iPhones and smartwatches and a miniaturized desktop could feel out of place And just like it did last fall Apple could easily hold a Mac specific event later this year There s also a lot of noise online about an upcoming iPad mini refresh Apple s smallest iPad hasn t had an update since and is currently considered constrained internally according to Gurman While a new model is likely to come soon it s not common for Apple to announce iPads during its iPhone event Beyond that a whole bunch of software updates are about to drop There s iOS which we ve written about extensively and iPadOS As for smartwatches watchOS is also coming out sometime this fall Apple already detailed all three operating systems at WWDC but the upcoming iPhone event would be a good time to announce official release dates One early thing Here s something we know for sure Apple has a updated Beats Powerbeats Pro update coming next year Beats teased an update to the earbuds on its Instagram account on September with a short Reel In the clip Los Angeles Dodgers Shohei Ohtani swings a bat while wearing the upcoming earbuds before a Powerbeats Pro wordmark and Coming flash up on screen nbsp That s it ーthere s no mention of specs pricing or a tighter release window but we do at least see a tweaked design You can read senior reporter Billy Steele s analysis of this glimpse here Chances are we won t hear about this new set of buds at the iPhone event but expect to see them adorning many more athlete and celebrity ears before long View this post on Instagram A post shared by Beats by Dre beatsbydre The Engadget Podcast with special guest Mark GurmanIn preparation for Apple s September event Bloomberg s Mark Gurman joined Engadget Podcast hosts Cherlynn Low and Devindra Hardawar to talk all things Apple The trio talked at length about the latest Apple rumors including the new camera button for iPhone tweaks to screen sizes the new AirPods lineup and what to expect

Indie developer Gardenfiend Games just released a gorgeous plant horror game that its team describes as Hollow Knight meets Titan Souls Perennial Order which dropped on September for PC PS and Xbox Series X S is a D boss rush game that pulls inspiration from Dark Souls Princess Mononoke and the art style of Magic The Gathering Its protagonist is an undead knight with a pitcher plant for a head or maybe it s a helmet and a stinger grafted onto one arm and the hostile world it s set in is crawling with plant infested monsters Needless to say I downloaded it immediately You can play Perennial Order solo or with a friend ーit offers both local and online co op with cross platform support There are bosses to face and with one hit death combat your every move is critical Thankfully you respawn close to where you died because you ll probably be doing a lot of that with some enemies I ve spent a little bit of time with Perennial Order this weekend and it is really captivating The environment and music are beautiful creating an atmosphere that s wonderfully bleak as you explore between boss fights and piece together the lore through interactions with talkative NPCs I love a good plant horror and Perennial Order does not disappoint nbsp This article originally appeared on Engadget at |
