Leading the Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) rumor mill today is news of AAPL selling refurbished iPhone devices. Today, we’ll look at that and other Apple Rumors for Wednesday.
Refurbished iPhone: Apple customers looking to get an iPhone for cheap can now buy refurbished ones online, reports AppleInsider. The tech company is now selling refurbished iPhone models via its online store. The current models available are from the iPhone 6s line and they include the Plus variants. This change allows customers to buy the smartphones from AAPL for cheaper than a new iPhone and still get an official warranty with it.
iOS 10.1.1 Update: Apple is releasing another version of the iOS 10.1.1 update, MacRumors notes. There aren’t any notes included with the update, so it is currently unknown what it is for. However, it is very likely that it fixes some minor bugs on the company’s mobile devices. It has a different build number than the previous iOS 10.1.1 update, but wasn’t large enough to be a iOS 10.1.2 update. It also can’t be downloaded over-the-air by anyone that has already grabbed the first version of the iOS 10.1.1 update released at the end of October.
MacBook Pro: Third-party retailers will likely start selling the new MacBook Pro soon, reports 9to5Mac. The new MacBook Pro computers that come with the Touch Bar are set to start showing up at third-party retailers on Nov. 17, 2016, which is next Thursday. This was discovered after various sources checked availibity dates for the computers at different retailers. The new MacBook Pro with Touch Bar computers are still showing shipping estimates of four weeks to five weeks.
