Students get a massive discount on Apple’s Pro Apps Bundle

• Apple is offering students a massive discount on a bundle of pro apps that includes Final Cut Pro X, Logic Pro X and more.
• The total cost of the apps included in the set would be just under $630, but Apple is offering them all to those in education for just $199.
• “Education pricing is available to college students, students accepted to college, parents buying for college students, faculty, homeschool teachers, and staff at all grade levels,” Apple said. 

All three 2017 iPhones may get wireless charging

• According to a reliable Apple analyst, the company will release three new iPhones this year — including a redesigned iPhone 8 (or iPhone X) and two iterative iPhone 7 updates.
• All three models will reportedly boast new Apple wireless charging tech, rather than the feature being limited to a high-end OLED handset.

  The next iPhone may cost more than $1,000

• The price of the top-of-the-line iPhone is set to increase to more than $1,000, according to a new report that claims the device will pack an OLED display that stretches across the entire front of the phone

• The report also echoes previous rumors that the 2017 iPhone will come in three screen sizes: 5.8 inches, 5.5 inches and 4.7 inches. It’s still unclear what Apple will call the next iPhone. Some fans expect it to be called
