Apple announces the new Mac mini and Mac Studio are available today, along with the opening of Apple Music Hall in London.
Apple Music partners with Ticketmaster for concert discovery
Apple Music has partnered with Ticketmaster to power a concert discovery integration that surfaces nearby events tailored to users’ listening habits and includes direct Ticketmaster links for ticket purchases. The feature appears across the Apple Music app—homepage carousel, a dedicated Concerts Tab, Artist Pages with tour badges—and will send push notifications when favorite artists play nearby. Apple also integrated Bandsintown concert listings into the app. Ticketmaster already supplies event listings across Apple’s ecosystem (Maps, Spotlight Search, Photos, Shazam), and iOS 26 adds tighter links from Photos to upcoming events. The move follows competitors’ deals (Spotify with SeatGeek) and comes amid recent U.S. Justice Department tentative settlement activity with Ticketmaster parent Live Nation over antitrust concerns.
JD.com Delivers 30,000 iPhones Within First Hour of Launch
JD.com reported delivering over 30,000 units of the iPhone 18 Pro series within the first hour of its launch in China, with some deliveries arriving minutes after the official 8 AM start. The company attributed this performance to pre-distributing inventory across its logistics network, including over 10,000 front warehouses, local fulfillment centers, and service stations, enabling rapid delivery in major cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Wuhan. JD.com also offers additional services such as trade-in, device activation, data transfer, screen protection, and eSIM support, with over 3,000 service stations for Apple products and more than 20,000 service appointments booked before launch. This logistics capability is positioned as a key competitive advantage, supported by a survey indicating that over 60% of respondents prefer JD.com for purchasing new Apple products.
