Apple Event 2020 highlights: 8th Gen iPad launched, iPad Air 4, Watch Series 6, Apple One and much announced

"Time Flies", Apple's most-sought launch event is officially underway and the online-only event is expected to focus on iPads and Apple Watches.

At the event we’re expecting not one, but two new Apple Watches -- Series 6 and a new budget-variant of the Watch. Apple might also announce a new variant the iPad Air, which may be inspired by the iPad Pro line-up.

The all-new iPad Air is “designed to offer pro features at an affordable price”. Apple’s new iPad Air will use a A14 Bionic SoC, making it the second time that an iPad gets a new chip before the iPhone. It has a 10.9-inch liquid retina display with a 2360 x 1650 pixels resolution.

Over 10 years, Apple has sold more than 50 million iPads. The 8th Gen iPad has the same design, but is better in performance, which is because of a new A12 Bionic chip. Apple claims 40-percent faster CPU and 2X bump in graphic performance. It works with keyboards (Magic keyboard and Logitech keyboard) and the Apple Pencil.

Apple Music, TV+, Arcade, News+, Fitness+, and iCloud all under one roof.

New workout classes will be added to Apple Fitness Plus every week. You can get a catalogue of videos on iPad, iPhone, or Apple TV.

Budget variant Apple Watch SE too launched. Under the hood, it houses a S5 system in chip which translates to twice as fast as the Series 3. This one has a bigger screen. Apple Watch 6 series starts from $399, while Apple Watch SE starts from $279 for GPS variant.

Meet the Apple Watch Series 6. It has the same design, but this line up packs in a new blue aluminum, graphite and Product Red variant. It can measure your blood oxygen level directly from your wrist.
