At their 2017 World Wide Developers Conference, Apple announced six new things. tvOS gets an update and Amazon Prime Video. watchOS 4 includes new faces and functionality. macOS High Sierra will incorporate Apple File System and improvements to Safari, Mail, and Photos. MacBook Pros and iPads get a spec bump, and iMacs can now handle VR with the HTC Vive. The iMac Pro, coming later this year, might fill the MacPro-sized hole in power users' hearts. iOS 11 will include a slew of new features and improvements, most notably machine learning and augmented reality. The new 10.5" iMac Pro further blurs the line between tablets and power computers. And last, but surely not least, the new HomePod is the rumored "Siri Speaker," with a big focus on music.
