Amaya Toman Apple surprised us this week with an invitation to the last Apple Keynote of the year - but this time it will be a slightly different Keynote. In addition to the October event, today's roundup of events related to Apple will also talk about the production price of this year's iPhones or the measures Apple took with Apple Maps in the Gaza Strip at the request of the Israeli army.

Halloween Keynote
Extraordinary October Keynotes are nothing unusual in Apple's history. This week we learned that we will see the October conference again this year, but this time things will be a little different. The keynote will take place on October 30th at 17.00:XNUMX PM Pacific Time. Apple highlighted the Keynote on its website using a dark, dimly lit Apple logo and Finder. The online event will be titled Scary fast and the Cupertino company is expected to present new Macs.
It is from the Finder logo that we can conclude that it will really be the presentation of new Apple computers. There is talk that it could be a 24″ iMac and a 13″ MacBook Pro with M3 chips.
Production price of iPhone 15
Last week there were reports that the manufacturing cost of this year's iPhones was not exactly low. Due to the new material or the new type of camera in some models, this is understandable, and the increase in the price of the relevant components applies to absolutely all this year's models. While this year Apple decided to absorb the impact of increased costs and higher production costs did not have a significant impact on the selling price of iPhones, according to Formalhaut Techno Solutions and Nikkei Asia, the situation could be different next year, and the iPhone 16 could thus become significantly more expensive.

Apple Maps and restrictions in the Gaza Strip
There is currently a war going on in the Gaza Strip. As part of efforts to eliminate the terrorist organization Hamas, the Israeli military has asked major technology companies, including Google and Apple, to turn off the display of current traffic data in their mapping and navigation applications. The source of this data is, among other things, the movement of the relevant mobile devices, and the army wants to achieve the impossibility of tracking the movement of its units by requesting to turn off the display of traffic data. The Apple Maps application therefore does not currently display traffic data in the Gaza Strip and part of Israel.
