They are originally known for computers, but lately more of the iPod, iPhone, and iPad. Let’s take a look at some of the different products that Apple offers and their various features.

First off, let’s talk about their line of desktop computers. On the professional side, the Mac Pro in one of the nicest computers built, and comes with enormous amounts of processing power. This computer is also professionally priced, and will cost several thousand dollars. Their line of consumer computers, the iMacs, are great all in one computers – meaning that everything is included in one piece, and you don’t have to have a CPU separate form the screen. These computers have quite a bit of processing power in them, and have huge screens. On the lower side, the Mac mini comes with less processing power but at a more affordable price. Like all Apple products, it is still a great computer.

Apple makes two lines of laptops, the Apple MacBook, and the MacBook Pro. The MacBook Pro comes with more processing power, a sturdier case, and a higher price. The MacBooks are great laptops for regular consumer use.

Apple first became known for its portable consumer devices with the introduction of the Apple iPod, a revolutionary portable digital music player. Today, the iPod is offered in several lines. The iPod shuffle is very small and has just a few button – it’s designed for ultra portability. The iPod shuffle is the small version of the iPod classic. It generally comes in small storage sizes, but can still be loaded with gigs of music and videos. The iPod classic is a bit bigger, in screen size, body size, storage capacity, and price.

The Apple iPhone revolutionized the smartphone market when it came out by allowing full web access on a phone. It offers a touchscreen device with a huge app store, full web browser, and many other great features. The iPod Touch offers an iPhone like experience, without the phone functionality.

Lastly, the iPad offers the simple, yet functional, iPhone experience in a tablet size. The iPad is a touch-screen computer with thousands of available apps, an eBook store, and a full web browser.

As you can see, Apple Mac products offer a great selection of extremely high quality computing devices. Apple products tend to be much higher priced than the competition, but also deliver more – from beautiful, modern design to secure, functional software.
