Apple will unveil its next iPhone model on March 15th, rumours suggest.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although nothing is confirmed, it’s widely believed <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/12/apple-iphone-6c-all-details-tech-specs.html">the new iPhone will have a smaller four-inch display</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dubbed iPhone 5se or iPhone 6c, <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/12/apple-iphone-6c-all-details-tech-specs.html">the new smartphone is expected to resemble an updated iPhone 5s</a>, with improved cameras, support for Live Photos and Apple Pay.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apple is also expected to include a faster processor and the same curved glass display as the iPhone 6 and newer.</div>

Alongside <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/12/apple-iphone-6c-all-details-tech-specs.html">its updated smaller iPhone</a>, Apple is expected to refresh the iPad range.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Apple iPad Air 3 is rumoured to make its debut during the press conference. The 9.7-inch iPad wasn't updated at all last year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Apple is expected to boost the speed of its iPad, as well as include an LED flash for the rear camera.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The iPad Air 3 could also be slightly thicker than its predecessor, which first made its debut in October 2014, as <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/09/ipad-pro-apple-announces-new-129inch.html">Apple is expected to include support for the Apple Pencil</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This lightweight rechargeable stylus was unveiled alongside <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/09/ipad-pro-apple-announces-new-129inch.html">the productivity-minded iPad Pro</a>, and has proven to be a big hit with artists and designers thanks to its low latency.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And Pencil support is not the only feature Apple is expected to borrow from the iPad Pro for its latest iPad Air.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Leaked cases have revealed four speakers around the 9.7 tablet, similar to those included in Apple's premium device.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The smart connector, <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/09/ipad-pro-apple-announces-new-129inch.html">used to share power and data between the keyboard and iPad Pro</a>, could also be bundled with the iPad Air 3.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Finally, we are expecting to see some minor upgrades for the Apple Watch, too.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
SMARTWATCHES have come into their own within the last 12 months – from the roll-out of the first Apple wearable, to the growth of Fitbit and Jawbone-style fitness trackers and entirely new designs from Huawei and Samsung. But which deserves pride of place on your wrist?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The last year was a pivotal one for wearables.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The device category has become increasingly popular within the last 12 months, with more and more people using fitness trackers, smartwatches and other wrist-worn gadgets on a daily basis.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/10/find-out-how-many-iphones-apple-have.html">Apple Watch hit shelves across the world within the last year </a>and although the Cupertino company has yet to reveal how many units it has sold, the ever-increasing presence of the Watch is undeniable. From prime-time adverts to fashion catwalks, <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/10/find-out-how-many-iphones-apple-have.html">the Watch has already attracted thousands and thousands of apps and accessories</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Huawei also dipped its <em>proverbial</em> toes into the smartwatch water in 2015, with <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/09/this-is-huaweis-answer-to-apple-watch.html">the release of the Huawei Watch at the IFA consumer technology show, in Berlin</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Motorola updated its show-stealing circular design <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/09/moto-360-motorola-offers-endless-choice.html">Moto 360 watch with a new range aimed squarely at female wrists</a>, and<a href="http://www.express.co.uk/life-style/science-technology/606854/Jawbone-UP-3-UP3-Review"> Jawbone updated its entire product line</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>But which one of these wearables is best suited to YOUR needs?</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<em>NewsNewsBlog.blogspot.com</em> has spend the last twelve months <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-best-apple-watch-apps.html">answering calls, tracking runs, ordering taxis and monitoring our heart rate with these clever wearable</a>, and these are our picks – </div>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Best Wearable and Smartwatch for Data Crunchers – Microsoft Band 2</strong></h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Granted, the Microsoft Band is not the best looking device on the market. And it’s also not the most comfortable to wear, thanks to the myriad of sensors and trackers packed into the Band 2.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But when it comes to quantifying your sleep, workouts and commute – you’ll struggle to find better.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Microsoft has fitted a total of 11 different types of sensor including an optical heart-rate monitor, three-axis accelerometer, GPS, gyrometer, a microphone, ambient light sensor, skin temperature sensor, UV sensor, capacitive sensor, galvanic skin response detector and barometer.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Data from these sensors can be viewed on the companion smartphone app, which is available on iOS, Android and Windows Phone, as well as the powerful online dashboard.</div>

<strong>Best Wearable and Smartwatch for Android users – Samsung Gear S2</strong></h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Samsung was one of the first major technology companies to bring a smartwatch to market. But it is the South Korean firm’s seventh attempt, the Gear S2, that is a truly innovative and compelling wearable.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Samsung Gear S2 is a stylish smartwatch with a unique spinning bezel and great notification support for Android smartphones.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Turning the bezel around the bright AMOLED display gives a satisfying solid click, which adds to the enjoyment of flying through menus, news articles and text conversations. It's also much better than the touchscreen-focused solution currently used by the majority of Android Wear devices, including the disappointing LG Watch Urbane.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sadly, it's not all positive as the wearable is let down by the lack of compelling and big-name apps available on its custom Tizen OS and the absence of tap-to-pay contactless Samsung Pay in the UK, for now.</div>

Samsung has also been clever by finally making the Gear S2 available to any Android handset running KitKat 4.4 and with at least 1.5GB of RAM, which certainly broadens its appeal. But there’s no iPhone support yet.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
All of these issues will almost certainly be fixed in the coming months, but it's certainly something you need to consider before splashing the cash on a Gear S2 now.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Granted, this device certainly isn't perfect but with Samsung hard at work on bringing its tap-to-pay solution to the UK and pushing developers to embrace its Tizen operating system – the Gear S2 is only going to get better and better.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For now, the Gear S2 is a stylish smartwatch with a unique and fun spinning bezel and great notification support for Android smartphones. But with iPhone support, contactless payments and more must-have smartwatch apps on the way – this wearable is only going to become more appealing over the coming months.</div>

Best Budget Wearable and Smartwatch of 2015 – Jawbone UP Move</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This nifty little fitness tracker brings the might of the Jawbone app and ecosystem to your wrist for a bargain price.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Clip the coin-sized UP move to your jeans or wear it on your wrist and the smart, circular fitness tracker will start keeping an eye on your sleep quality, steps, exercise and calories burned.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You can also log your latest meals to double-check that you are on track for your fitness goal.</div>

But the star of the show is Jawbone’s iOS and Android apps, which analyses the constant stream of data to make intelligent – and personalised – recommendations.</div>

And it’s these personalised tips that helps the Jawbone ecosystem stand-out from competitors like FitBit.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dubbed Smart Coach, the feature tries to add some insight to the slew of numbers your fitness tracker throws up everyday. And it works really well. For example, after analysing the time you go to bed and your sleep quality, the Jawbone app will suggest an ideal bed-time for the best possible night’s rest. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It will also analyse your heart-rate throughout the day and night, to offer insights into this sometimes confusing metric. You can also compare yourself against other Jawbone users to see what you can expect of yourself.</div>

The smartphone app also displays your activity in a beautiful timeline, as well as a series of graphs.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jawbone also has the best social features of any fitness tracking app.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The firm recently introduced Duels – which allows those running the app to kickstart a head-to-head step battle lasting 24 hours, three days or 1 week with a friend. It’s an intuitive, well designed and shows why the Jawbone app ecosystem is the best on the market.</div>

<strong>Best Overall Wearable and Smartwatch of 2015 – Apple Watch Sport</strong></h2>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you want the best smartwatch of the year, buy an Apple Watch Sport.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The aluminium wearable subtly keeps you abreast of the most important notifications from your smartphone, tracks your workouts and day-to-day fitness, and quickly respond to your friends’ texts and calls.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And thanks to the immense response from the developer community, Apple Watch owners can now order an Uber without pulling the iPhone from their pocket, track your Domino’s pizza order as it wings its way to your door, follow turn-by-turn directions and quickly glance at the latest train times.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You can also tap your wearable on any contactless payment point to pay for your weekly shop, or get the London Underground.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The subtle haptic feedback built into the Watch – which provides a gentle tapping sensation on your wrist, instead of the aggressive vibrations favoured by rival smartwatch manufacturers – works really well.</div>

Apple Watch looks great and feels comfortable on the wrist, thanks to the colourful, flexible and soft fluoroelastomer strap that ships with the smartwatch.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Unfortunately the Apple Watch can still be a little sluggish at times, with loading animations endlessly chugging away as you try to load your favourite third-party app. Apple improved its load times with the roll-out of watchOS 2.0, which allows third-party apps to run natively. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However since not every Watch app has been updated to take advantage of the tweaked speeds, you will still see more than a few loading animations while using the wearable.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You’ll also need an iPhone 5 or newer to use the Apple Watch, and there’s no Android support.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But if you are interested in smartwatches and have the required hardware – the Apple Watch is a solid investment and once you get used to glancing at your text messages, changing music tracks, following directions, scanning plane tickets, paying at the check-out and checking your upcoming appointment from your wrist, you’ll struggle to see how to lived without it. </div>
