Apple’s newest product, built for the kids ✏️
This newsletter was brought to you bySuperhumanApple’s newest product, built for the kids ✏️
Yesterday, Apple rolled out their newest line of education products at Lane Tech High School in Chicago.
This focus isn't surprising: students who learn on Apple devices are more likely to stay within the Apple ecosystem as they grow up.
Tim Cook is playing catch-up: 30 million children use Google education apps like Gmail and Docs, and Google's browser-only Chromebook accounts for more than half the mobile devices shipped to schools.
Their big announcement of the day: a new 9.7" iPad, which includes:
✏️ Apple Pencil support so you can draw beautifully
🔋 10-hour battery life for late night Fortnite gaming
☁️ Free 200GB iCloud storage for students
It's normally $329, but students can buy it for a discount of $299. 👀
Apple also announced a complete redesign of their Microsoft Office clone iWork, and a new app called Schoolwork built specifically to help teachers assign work and track progress. No tree killing involved. 🌳

The Fastest Email, Now with AI
Full disclaimer: Superhuman is the email client most of us here at Product Hunt use (bar a few stragglers, we see you) It is fast in the way that actually matters. AI writes replies, summarizes threads, and triages the inbox instantly, so email stops eating the good part of the day. Email, calendar, and AI all work as one system, which means less bouncing around and less time piecing context back together. For high-performance teams, that speed adds up quickly. Superhuman Mail is built to help people move faster every day, not just feel slightly more organized.
