WWDC 2019: Apple unveils Mac Pro computer, iOS13 and iPadOS, as death of iTunes announced
Apple has unveiled updates for iPhone, Apple Watch and a host of other products – as well as its most powerful computer ever: the Mac Pro.
The company made the announcements at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference, or WWDC, in California on Monday.
It revealed all the major software updates that it will push out to the Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Apple TV later this year.
Unlike other events such as the iPhone reveal, none of these new updates will require paying up for new products. Instead, they will come in the form of operating system updates, which will bring a whole host of new features to most existing iPhones.
Apple unveiled iOS 13, for instance, the new software that will power the iPhone. It brings with it a new dark mode, better multitasking features, and changes to the way the phones store health data.

It contains two Thunderbolt 3 ports, two USB-A ports, two 10-gigabyte ethernet ports and "the world's most powerful graphics card".
Oh, and you might be pleased to know it also has a headphone jack.
The display is equally impressive and is the largest Retina display Apple has ever made.
There's been no word on price for the Mac Pro, but I wouldn't be surprised if its pricetag is as astonishing as its specs.
Oh wait, that's if you connect six screens together to work simultaneously.
Still, 20 million pixels crammed into a screen is huge.
These are the specs that come as standard, with prices starting from $5,999.
Ah, but that price only covers the computer. The screen costs an additional $4,999. So $11,000 for both together.
