First 2019 iPhone Models Would Be Red iPhone XS and XS Max

At the moment, both iPhone XS and XS Max are only available in silver, black, and gold. However, that would change this month when Apple plans to launch red iPhone XS and XS Max as its first 2019 iPhone models.

The rumor came out thanks to a post on Weibo, the most famous Chinese social network. MacRumors took the information and presented it yesterday. According to Weibo, it seems that the new red iPhone XS and XS Max would only be available in China as the iPhone sales in this country are much lower than expected. However, Apple might not limit the sales for its upcoming iPhone XS and XS Max in red color only to China.

The report on Weibo also says that red variants of iPhone XS and XS Max would come out later this month. “Apple globally launched a mid-cycle (PRODUCT)RED edition iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus in March 2017 and a similar edition for the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus in April 2018, so the timing wouldn’t be completely off. Apple already sells a (PRODUCT)RED variant of the iPhone XR,” MacRumors pointed out.

On the other hand, as regards the other iPhone of the 2018 lineup, “Apple’s iPhone XR has had a red color variant since launch. So, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Apple release red versions of the iPhone XS and XS Max, to drum up sales,” Business Insider highlighted.

“If there’s any weight to today’s rumor of a red iPhone XS and XS coming to China, it could potentially signal the early launch of PRODUCT(RED) versions for the rest of the world, although nothing is certain. Rumors last year of a mid-cycle PRODUCT(RED) edition of the iPhone X never transpired, for example,” MacRumors reported.

In short, according to a rumor coming from Weibo, Apple might launch its first 2019 iPhone models this month – iPhone XS and XS Max in red color. However, both devices, which initially rolled out in 2018, won’t come out with any other changes except the new color.

Few out of every odd programmer/engineer who Jailbreaks into Apple’s gadgets, as a rule, give out their strategies. Such specialists don’t give out their technique and decline to publically release their codes. They would either pitch them to outsider engineers and programmers or would report the equivalent to Apple to enable them to fix the future operating systems. These are either moral programmers or the awful ones.

As we probably are aware as of now, jailbreaking isn’t some tea given just like that, that has a considerable effect on security, however at any rate this methodology lifts a portion of the confinements executed by Apple and makes it conceivable to get to highlights that aren’t generally conceivable on an iPhone, as expressed by Softpedia. While this could be likely solid as uplifting news to a couple of numerous out there, it unquestionably implies more work for Apple’s designers to make a beeline for their security machines to assemble significantly more grounded support for their future gadgets.

These days we were amazed by another announcement which might be vital for users who want to know more about jailbreaking their iPhone. You read it right! Recently, iOS 12.1 has been subject to a jailbreak performed on the most recent Apple device which operates this OS – iPhone XS Max.

The jailbreak won’t be released to the public yet

Recently, Liang Chen, staff member of Keen Lab, posted a photo confirming the iOS 12.1 jailbreak on his Twitter profile. The operation was performed on an iPhone XS Max. His initiative was highly appreciated, because it is the first ever ran on the 6.5-inch flagship from Apple.

Even if people are so curious, iPhone users shouldn’t wait so anxiously to actually see the jailbreak. Keen Lab is not so willing to share the process and release Chen’s work to the public. In this case, Apple fans won’t be able to witness the iOS 12.1 jailbreak anytime soon.

A Jailbreak for iPhone XS Max which Operates on iOS 12.1 Available Soon

Ever since the last version of iOS was released, users have been interested in seeing how a jailbreak would work on this operating system. Recently, this ”dream” became true thanks to Keen Security Lab.

A member of their team, Liang Chen, managed to jailbreak the new iPhone XS Max, a device ran by iOS 12.1. He announced his accomplishment on Twitter and added that he will make a presentation about the jailbreak during POC 2018.

Chen’s presentation can be seen on the 9th of November

According to Liang Chen’s social media channel, he will be moderating the panel this Friday, November 9th, between 16:30 – 17:30. Unfortunately, people cannot expect to actually see any footage presenting the jailbreak process.

Chen might not be able to make a practical demonstration of his work on jailbreaking iOS 12.1 on an iPhone XS Max because of his job. Tencent Keen Security Lab was created in 2016 (January). Their purpose is to focus on researching security matters for PCs, IOT smart devices, applications, mobile devices, cloud computing technologies and others.

In addition, Tencent Security applies their research on their own products and technologies. This means that a jailbreak like the one recently completed by Chen might not be in their line of interest.

iOS 12.1 users are happy to hear that their operating system can be subject to jailbreak. A lot of them say that this version is far better the previous parts, so they will follow Chen’s work very closely.

Other say that there’s no point in proving that you jailbreak an operating system unless you show the process to the public. Usually, it can take months until people like Chen show how they managed to do what they claim and it could be too late, since iOS users might already upgrade their systems.

Apple Asked Developers To Support iPhone XS Max, iPad Pro 3, and iOS 12.1 by March 2019

During the recent Apple event, the giant tech company revealed its new iPad Pro 2018 model, dubbed as iPad Pro 3, along with the new iOS 12.1 version. Besides presenting the device’s new design with no Home Button, Apple also asked developers to support iPhone XS Max, iPad Pro 3, and the new iOS 12.1 by March 2019.

According to the Apple devs web page, the developers must build new apps with the iOS 21.1 SDK by March 2019, thus, supporting the new Apple devices, including iPad Pro 3 and iPhone XS Max, along with the newly released iOS 12.1. The devs must focus on the new iPad design which lacks a home button, so the new apps must center on that, leaving thin extra space at the bottom of the screen to allow users to use gestures to navigate the new tablet.

However, there are more new features the developers must focus upon, including the new Apple Pencil functions and the higher screen-to-body-ratios the new iPhone XS Max and iPad Pro 3 boast.

Apple also asked developers to concentrate on the other new features both iPhone XS Max and iPad Pro 3 boast, besides the new functions of the iOS 12.1 version. Accordingly, the devs must also create apps with the new features of the Apple Pencil in mind but also with a focus on the new functionality of the iPad Pro 3 which allows users to connect external hardware via USB-C.

When researching on the new Apple’s developers guidelines referring to the new devices such as iPhone XS Max and iPad Pro 3, besides iOS 12.1, surprisingly, there is nothing about the new 11-inch iPad Pro which is, in reality, featuring an entirely new aspect ratio when compared to the previous iPad Pro models and even to the new iPad Pro 3.
