According to a new report from Japan’s MacOtakara, via AppleInsider, Apple is to launch three new iPad Pro models in Spring 2017, one of which will be a mini 7.9-inch model, as well as 10.1-inch and 12.9-inch models.
The “reliable sources” quoted in the report said the 7.9-inch iPad Pro mini, as well as the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, will have the Apple Smart Connector, quad-speaker audio, four microphones, a True Tone display with DCI-P3 “Wide Color” support, and 12-megapixel rear camera.
The 10.1-inch model, which is basically a slightly bigger revamp of the old 9.7-inch iPad Pro model, will also have four microphones, and already has the Wide Color True Tone display, of course.
If these latest rumours are true, they support an earlier report from August of this year from well-sourced KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who said that Apple would be launching three iPad models in 2017, specifically mentioning a 10.5-inch iPad Pro, which Kuo said would have a completely redesigned chassis and AMOLED display panel.

Agatha Christie: The A.B.C. Murders, the console and PC hit game from Microïds and Artefacts Studios, has arrived in the App Store. Based around one of Agatha Christie’s most popular murder mystery novels, the game puts the player in the shoes of Belgian detective Hercule Poirot. Apple has already highlighted it in the App Store as one of the “New Games We Love.”
The adventure and investigation gameplay requires strategy, skill, wit, and composure in order to solve a series of murders that have everyone stumped. The game is played from Poirot’s point of view, base on his particular style of deductive reasoning using those famous “little grey cells.”
Superstar YouTuber PewDiePie’s new iOS game, Tuber Simulator, has soared to the top of the App Store charts in 29 countries in just a couple of days, reports VentureBeat. In fact the game was so in demand that it actually crashed the App Store, Pokémon Go style, for a while. If you’re not familiar with PewDiePie, he’s actually one of the most famous YouTubers in the world, with more than 48 million subscribers to his YouTube channel, so it’s no surprise at all that his second ever iOS game is such a huge hit. It also helps that its actually really good (and it features a cute pug minigame)!
The game was developed by Outerminds (who also made PewDiePie’s first number 1 iOS game, Legend of the Brofist) and published by PewDiePie’s own company, Revelmode.
Gameplay revolves around trying to become a successful YouTuber, just like PewDiePie himself (real name Felix Kjellberg), by making the best videos you can and buying upgrades to make them even better. You can also spend your money in-app to help you progress as a YouTuber, which has helped the game to become one of the top 100 highest-grossing iPhone games in the US.
Here are some of PewDiePie’s Tuber Simulator’s key features:
Infinite Tanks is out now for iOS, offering the ultimate in automotive assault. The game gets its name from its powerful personalisation system, which uses virtual cards to represent each vehicle’s component parts. The choice available for each vehicle’s engine, body, track, turrets, and guns produces over 100 million unique vehicles, excluding aesthetic personalization options such as paint and accessories.
Players can mix, match, and swap cards with their friends to create their own version of the perfect vehicle to suit their own particular play style, from nippy speedsters to great big lumbering hunks of pure defensive power, to all-out attack vehicles with massive booming guns. Once you’ve created your perfect beast, then its onward to the multiplayer mayhem.

9to5 Mac reports that black hat security firm Zerodium has increased its maximum bounty for finding zero-day iOS 10 exploits to $1.5 million, having previously offered $1 million for iOS 9 exploits.
Zero-day exploits are those that have not yet been discovered by the developer, and therefore give companies zero days to prepare. Zerodium’s founder, Chaouki Bekrar, told Arstechnica that the company was offering more money for iOS 10 exploits as a result of the increased security in iOS 10.
Bekrar said that Zerodium was prepared to offer much more money for the discovery of zero-day iOS exploits than Android exploits because “iOS 10 chain exploits are either 7.5 x harder than Android or the demand for iOS exploits is 7.5 x higher. The reality is a mix of both.”
Explaining what makes an exploit worth of big-bucks payouts from Zerodium, Bekrar said, “To qualify for a Zerodium bounty, the chain must generally work almost flawlessly to surreptitiously give an attacker complete control over the targeted device. In the parlance of hackers, that’s called a weaponized exploit. It’s not enough that a researcher provides only a rough outline of the vulnerabilities with a less-than-perfect proof-of-concept exploit. The bounties paid by Apple and Google, by contrast, are much less demanding, and as a result, they generally require less work.”
