Apple Watch Series 4 and newer now cost $99 for battery replacements, up from $79.
Series 2 and Series 3 battery replacement remains unchanged at $79.
Original 2015 Apple Watch no longer eligible for Apple’s repair services.

Apple has silently ushered in a new pricing regime for its Apple Watch battery replacement service in the U.S.

This move has notably occurred in the wake of the recent announcement of the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2, set to be available in stores next week.

While the launch of new products at the same price point as their predecessors is certainly welcomed, consumers should be aware of the surge in battery replacement costs for certain Apple Watch models.

Here’s a quick rundown of all the changes.

Until recently, all Apple Watch models could have their batteries replaced at a flat rate of $79. Now, that cost has been revised to $99 for Series 4 and subsequent iterations.
If you own an Apple Watch Series 2 or Series 3, you’re in luck; the battery replacement price remains at $79.

For Apple Watch users keen on understanding their battery health, they can navigate to Settings > Battery on their device. It’s a handy reminder, especially for those covered by AppleCare+.
Watches with a maximum battery capacity below 80% may qualify for a free battery replacement under the program.

Customers have multiple avenues to avail of these battery services – from walking into Apple’s retail locations and accessing the Genius Bar, opting for the mail-in service, or visiting authorized resellers.

While this price bump is exclusively for the U.S. market, the Apple community in India is on standby, awaiting clarity on the new battery service costs in their region.

As Apple continues to make strides in product innovation, the subtle price hikes on services serve as a reminder for users to keep an eye on the finer print and manage their device’s health optimally.

iPhone 15 vs Pixel 7: Brief Overview

Display: The Pixel 7 features a 6.3-inch screen with a 1080×2400 resolution, offering a 90Hz refresh rate. In contrast, the iPhone 15 sports a 6.1-inch screen with a slightly superior 1179×2556 resolution but lags with a 60Hz refresh rate. The Pixel has a slight edge here, owing to its superior refresh rate, which promises smoother transitions and scrolling.
Processor: Google’s Pixel 7 is powered by the Google Tensor G2 processor, whereas the iPhone 15 runs on Apple’s A16 Bionic chip, recognized for its performance, especially in the Pro models.
Storage: The iPhone 15 outshines the Pixel 7 in terms of storage options. Apple offers 128GB, 256GB, and a massive 512GB variant. On the other hand, Google’s flagship comes in only two options – 128GB and 256GB.
Charging: Both phones, marking a significant shift, especially for Apple, now use USB-C charging ports.

iPhone 15 vs Pixel 7: Cameras

While both phones pack a 12MP ultra-wide lens, the Pixel 7’s main lens stands at 50MP, whereas the iPhone 15 trails slightly behind with its 48MP main lens.

Numerical differences aside, Google has always been acclaimed for its software-driven camera enhancements, such as the Magic Eraser tool.

Apple, while no slouch in the camera department, will have to showcase something exceptional to outdo Google’s suite of features.

iPhone 15 vs Pixel 7: Performance and Software

Performance-wise, Apple’s A16 Bionic processor, a carryover from its Pro models, is indisputably powerful.
Yet, Google’s Tensor G2 chip is tailor-made to accentuate Pixel-specific software enhancements, especially in the realm of artificial intelligence.

On the software front, the age-old debate persists. Android is celebrated for its customization capabilities, while iOS is beloved for its seamless integration across Apple’s ecosystem.

iPhone 15 vs Pixel 7: Audio and Haptics

Historically, iPhones have taken the cake in the audio and haptics department. It is predicted that the iPhone 15, even without novel additions, might overshadow the Pixel 7 in these areas.

iPhone 15 vs Pixel 7: Battery Life and Charging

The exact battery capacity of the iPhone 15 remains shrouded in mystery, with Apple staying tight-lipped about the numbers.

But, given the trends, iPhones tend to outlast many competitors, despite seemingly smaller battery sizes.
Charging speeds for both devices are predicted to hover around the 20W mark for wired and 12-15W for wireless.

iPhone 15 vs Pixel 7: So What Should You Buy?

When choosing between the iPhone 15 and Pixel 7 a difference of nearly Rs 30,000 is notable.

Objectively, the iPhone 15 provides extended software support, superior video recording, longer battery life, and a formidable processor.
Yet, the Pixel 7’s display, combined with its attractive pricing, makes it a worthy contender.

For those on the fence, it may be prudent to hold onto your horses just a tad longer, as the Pixel 8 is slated for a release next month.

That could potentially throw a spanner in the works or provide clarity for the undecided. The stage is set, and the battle between these tech giants is one for the ages.

Speculations suggest the imminent arrival of the budget-friendly ‘OnePlus Pad Go’.
Tablet’s global release slated for January 2024, potentially alongside OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 12R.

OnePlus, known for its innovations in the tech arena, has recently sparked immense curiosity with a cryptic teaser on X (previously known as Twitter).

The post, while leaving much to the imagination, strongly hints at the launch of a new tablet. Though the brand remains tight-lipped about the product’s official name, the teaser, coupled with recent speculations, suggests we might soon see the unveiling of the ‘OnePlus Pad Go’.

OnePlus Pad Go Teaser?

The teaser shared by OnePlus on X was captioned, “What’s work without a little play? Take a Guess”.

An outline of what looked to be a tablet was present below it. This naturally led many to anticipate the arrival of the speculated OnePlus Pad Go tablet. With official details still under wraps, all eyes are on OnePlus for a formal announcement.

Renowned tipster, Ishan Agarwal, added fuel to the fire by claiming OnePlus’s intention to make waves in the budget tablet segment with the OnePlus Pad Go.

The exact pricing remains a mystery, but Agarwal’s hints strongly suggest an affordable range tailored for the Indian market.

Recent reports have indicated that OnePlus aims to roll out the OnePlus Pad Go on a global scale in January 2024, in tandem with the release of the OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 12R.

A More Budget-Friendly Version of the OnePlus Pad

For context, the original OnePlus Pad made its debut with a price tag of Rs 37,999. Speculations are rife that the upcoming ‘Go’ variant will be a cost-effective counterpart to the former.

However, there’s buzz that OnePlus might forgo the “Go” label, drawing parallels with its popular Nord series. This shift could be a strategic move to ensure clear brand messaging and avoid potential confusion among its customer base.

As the tech world eagerly awaits more concrete details, it’s evident that OnePlus is poised to make significant inroads in the tablet sector, especially in the budget-friendly niche. Stay tuned for more updates as this story unfolds.
