Apple 2024 Starting at Rs 34,900, the base model of the current iPad lineup goes up to Rs 2,59,900 for the top-of-the-line M4 iPad Pro.

Apple introduced its latest iPad Air and iPad Pro models last night, and discontinued the 9th gen iPad, the last one with a lightning port and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Starting the 10th Gen iPad and going up to M4 iPad Pro, the company now has a more streamlined lineup.

Here is an overview of Apple’s 2024 iPad lineup, and how Apple is serving almost every tablet use case using different models:

The New Maruti Suzuki Swift launched in India, The Price Starts at Rs 6.49 lakh.

Apple iPad Pro (M4) 11-inch, 13-inch

These are the most capable iPads available now. These are also the thinnest, with the 13-inch model measuring just 5.1mm and the 11-inch model measuring 5.3mm.
Equipped with an OLED screen, these iPads are powered by the brand new M4 chip, the latest Apple Silicon. Both models are compatible with the new Pencil Pro and the Magic Keyboard.

The 11-inch iPad Pro starts at Rs 99,900, while the 13-inch base model is priced at Rs 1,29,900. Base models now offer 256 GB storage and can be configured up to 2 TB. When you choose either the 1TB or 2TB model, there is also an option to get nano texture glass, similar to Apple Pro Display XDR, which can further reduce light reflection without affecting the color and contrast.

The 256 GB and 512 GB variants of the iPad Pro (M4) come with a 9-core CPU and a 10-core GPU along with 8 GB RAM, while the 1 TB and 2 TB iPad Pro models pack an even more powerful 10-core CPU and 10-core GPU with a whopping 16 GB of RAM, the highest amount of RAM that Apple has ever shipped on an iPad.

However, this comes at a premium of Rs 40,000 when upgrading from 512 GB to 1 TB and a price difference of Rs 80,000 when opting the 2 TB version.

A fully specced 13-inch iPad Pro (M4) with 2 TB storage, 5G connectivity, and nanotextured glass will cost Rs 2,59,900, making it the most expensive iPad. It is more expensive than the base MacBook Pro with an M3 Pro chip.

Apple iPad Air (M2) 11-inch, 13-inch

Apple iPad Air

The M2-powered iPad Air is available in two sizes, 11-inch and 13-inch, both powered by the M2 chip. These come with LCD screens with P3 color gamut coverage with anti-reflective coating. Thanks to the M2 chip, the latest iPad Air is as capable as the previous generation iPad Pros. The 11-inch iPad Air M2 starts at Rs 59,900, while the 13-inch iPad Air M2 costs 79,900 for the Wi-Fi-only models. There are also 5G-capable models. The new chip on the iPad Air makes them some of the best tablets for gaming. These models also support the brand-new Apple Pencil Pro and the new Magic Keyboard.

Flooding in Brazil: Over 100 People Dead, at Least 136 Missing as Rains Trigger Massive.

Severe flooding leaves at least 100 dead and thousands homeless in Flooding in Brazil.

Heavy rains have caused catastrophic flooding in southern Brazil killing at least 100 people and leaving thousands more homeless.

The southern state of Rio Grande do Sul was hit by heavy rain last week and subsequent flooding has washed away roads, collapsed bridges, and caused landslides across the state.

The latest estimates from the state civil defense authority say that 372 people have been injured and as many as 128 are still unaccounted for. More than 1.45 million people across 417 of the state’s 497 cities have been affected and the latest estimates suggest more than 200,000 people have been displaced.

Rio Grande do Sul has been virtually cut off from the rest of Brazil with roads flooded. The state’s main airport has been inundated by water and could be out of use for at least 30 days.

Officials have said it is the “worst natural calamity” to hit the state.

Residents rest in a makeshift shelter for people whose homes were flooded by heavy rains, in Canoas, Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil.

In Porto Alegre, the capital city of Rio Grande do Sul, several water plants have stopped functioning leaving an estimated 80 percent of the population without access to drinking water. Supplies are being rationed and officials are distributing drinking water to hospitals and shelters in tankers.

Many have also been left without electricity after power companies cut off supplies due to security reasons.

Thousands displaced by flooding across Rio Grande do Sul

With thousands of people displaced, homes and businesses destroyed, and widespread destruction, Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva promised the government would do “everything in [its] power” to contribute to the recovery of Rio Grande do Sul.

But rescue efforts have been hampered by looting and the flood waters that still linger in the city. In Porto Alegre, police have been providing volunteers with security patrols using boats and even jet skis.

Thousands are still waiting to be evacuated and officials have called for anyone who owns “any kind of boat” to offer it to emergency teams. Around 15,000 soldiers, firefighters, police, and volunteers are working to rescue people and transport aid.

Volunteers help to evacuate residents from an area flooded by heavy rains, in Porto Alegre, Brazil.

Brazilian Paralympic fencer Vanderson Chaves is one of those impacted by the disaster. He told the Associated Press that he has faced many challenges in his career but none as fearsome as these floods.

“There’s no way this wouldn’t affect me. To compete and to train well, you need to be well psychologically. And I’m not,” he said. The waters washed away his equipment, dozens of medals, and his passport and may even have thwarted his chances of reaching the Paris Games in September. He has also been displaced by the flooding.

ust days before he started decisive competitions to secure his spot at the Paris Paralympics, Paralympian fencer Vanderson Chaves's apartment was inundated.

“I come from an impoverished area of Porto Alegre. Everything for me is more difficult to achieve. I am Black, I am disabled. And now this.”

Residents are also reportedly facing shortages of essential supplies including drinking water. In many places, access to supply trucks or employees is completely cut off.

Authorities warn more rain is on the way

Downpours started on 29 April with more than 300 millimetres of rain falling in less than a week, according to Brazil’s National Institute of Meteorology (INMET). Flooding started in the north of the state and then subsequently inundated more southerly cities including Porto Alegre.

It is the fourth environmental disaster the Rio Grande do Sul has seen in a year after flooding hit in July, September, and November of 2023.

Still reeling from massive flooding, the state now faces the possibility of further storms. Brazil’s national center for natural disasters has warned the region is at “high risk” of more flooding. Weather forecaster MetSul said Rio Grande do Sul could face “very large” floods of “serious proportions”.

The city of Canoas is flooded after heavy rain in Rio Grande do Sul state.

On Wednesday, Porto Alegre officials warned civilian rescuers to halt their operations because of forecasts for rain, lightning, and strong winds. INMET has also forecast a cold front this weekend with additional rains which will be particularly intense in the north and east of the state.

Army General Marcelo Zucco, one of the coordinators of rescue operations, told AP that his team was working at full speed before heavy rains that are forecast to hit the Porto Alegre area this weekend. Some improvement in conditions had helped his tea finally access some areas by land on Wednesday but more rain started to fall on the city that afternoon.

Bayer Leverkusen Advances to the UEFA Europa League Final After Winning their 49th Straight Game.

Although Bayer Leverkusen won’t likely be celebrating their European final qualification on Thursday, they may have been celebrating something no other UEFA club has ever accomplished.

The Bundesliga winners advanced to the tournament’s final after a 4-2 aggregate victory over Roma in the Europa League semifinals thanks to a 2-2 second-leg tie.

More impressively, though, Leverkusen has now won 49 consecutive competitive games without a loss, a record held by no other UEFA team since the start of European continental competition. The previous benchmark was Benfica’s 48-game streak that included matches from 1963 to 1965.

Stanisic’s goal, meanwhile, was Leverkusen’s 17th scored in stoppage time this season.

Leverkusen midfielder Granit Xhaka said to TNT Sports: “This is football. It is the nice part of football. For the mentality, we showed again today against a big team to come back like this and go through to the final. We are more than happy today.

The unbeaten run, which is across all competitions and started with an 8-0 victory over FC Teutonia Ottensen in the German Cup on August 12, has surpassed Portuguese club Benfica’s mark of 48 consecutive games without losing from December 1963 to February 1965.

That Benfica team was spearheaded by Eusebio and they won the Portuguese league and cup throughout their unbeaten run.

Xabi Alonso’s Leverkusen side has avoided defeat in 32 Bundesliga games, five German Cup matches, and 12 Europa League games. They have won 40 of these matches.

Unsurprisingly, this has left them on the brink of a treble. They have already won the Bundesliga — ending Bayern Munich’s 11-season dominance as a result — and face second-tier Kaiserslautern in the German Cup final on May 25 and Atalanta in the Europa League final on May 22.

If Leverkusen also avoid defeat in their final two league games they will become the first side in Bundesliga history to go a whole season unbeaten.

Here are the five longest unbeaten runs by a European club since 1955:

The New Maruti Suzuki Swift launched in India, The Price Starts at Rs 6.49 lakh.

The new Maruti Suzuki Swift is priced between Rs 6.49 lakh and Rs 9.64 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). Takeuchi said the automaker has invested around Rs 1,450 crore towards the development of the premium hatchback.

Betting big on the entry-level segment, Maruti Suzuki India on Thursday said it will continue to “re-energize” the small car segment as the automaker expects the vertical to revive over the next few years, according to MD & CEO Hisashi Takeuchi.

Speaking at the launch of the new generation Swift here, he noted that the automaker aims to cater to the diverse needs of customers as it aims to sell 40 lakh units by 2030-31.

Takeuchi noted that the entry-level segment continues to be a high-volume vertical accounting for around 28 percent of the overall domestic passenger vehicle sales.

“For us to maintain our leadership position, it is important to cater to diverse customer segments. The hatchback segment in India continues to be a high-volume segment, accounting for approximately 28 percent of total passenger vehicle sales,” Takeuchi said.

Interestingly, the premium hatchback segment contributes nearly 60 percent of total hatchback sales, he noted.

“As a market leader, we took the responsibility to re-energize the hatchback segment at a time when this segment needs a catalyst for growth,” Takeuchi said.

He noted that the company has a strong belief in India’s growth story.

“As the government aims to make India a developed country by 2047, we can expect increased economic activity and robust demand for automobiles in the coming years” Takeuchi stated.

With only 32 vehicles per 1,000 people compared to over 600 in developed countries like Japan, India presents a vast pool of car aspirants, he said.

“As car ownership rises, the hatchback segment will serve as an entry point for many customers, and thus shall expand,” Takeuchi noted.

Therefore, the hatchback segment will continue to remain relevant for India, and the company’s focus on this segment will persist, he added.

The auto major expects the premium hatchback segment to grow to 10 lakh units per annum by 2030 from 7 lakh units currently.

The small car segment, which had once dominated the Indian total passenger vehicles market, accounts for less than 30 percent at present.

Takeuchi noted that India continues to be an important market for Suzuki. “Our long-term goal is to produce and sell a total of four million units annually, including exports,” he added.

The new Swift is priced between Rs 6.49 lakh and Rs 9.64 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). Takeuchi said the automaker has invested around Rs 1,450 crore towards the development of the premium hatchback.

This includes investment in tools and dyes for the vehicle as well as the new and more environment-friendly Z-Series engine, he added. The model would be manufactured at Suzuki Motor Gujarat, from where it will serve customers in India as well as in overseas markets, Takeuchi said.
