Earlier this year Apple announced that it was working on an on-demand video service, complete with original programming from folks like Reese Witherspoon, Oprah, Jason Momoa, and many others. They didn't get too specific about the launch date, though.
The company now says that Apple TV+ will start rolling out on November 1st ā and, like Apple Arcade, will cost $4.99 per month for a family subscription.
Oh! And a bit of an added surprise: all new iPhones, iPads, Macs, and AppleTVs will come with one year of AppleTV+, free.

As the iPad moves into its seventh generation, the 9.7" model is being bumped up to 10.2".
It'll have a Retina display, a smart connector on its edge to connect it with a full size keyboard accessory, and work with the first-gen Apple Pencil. And for the TouchID fans out there, fret not: they're keeping the home button.
It'll cost $329 (or $299 for students); pre-orders start today, shipping on September 30th.
Apple Watch Series 5

Always on display! Whereas previous Apple Watches turned off the display when you lowered your wrist, Series 5's display will stay on unless you deliberately turn it off.
When you lower your arm, the brightness drops and the screen's refresh rate dips down to one refresh per second, but your complications and watch faces stay visible. It's getting a built-in compass, and an "international emergency calling" feature that lets you call emergency services in 150 countries by pressing and holding the side button.
Apple says the battery should last about 18 hours per charge.
Apple Watch Series 5 will start at $399, or $499 for the cell-enabled models. Shipping will start on September 20th. There will be aluminum models (silver, gold, and space grey), stainless steel models (gold, space black, and polished), titanium (brushed metal, brushed space black), and ceramic.
Series 3, meanwhile, is getting a bit of a price drop, with the base price for the two-year old model going from $279 to $199.
