????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
what’s up brian tong here and welcome to
the apple bits for everything good and
bad inside the world of apple this is
the latest iphone 14 rumors watch series
8 tidbits we’ve got ipad os 16 getting
delayed and new ipads and a whole lot
more now you know we haven’t done an
iphone 14 update in a while because we
just already know so much but there’s
also some good stuff to talk about now
because apple recently released the
latest beta of ios 16 for developers and
95 mac discovered the latest beta adds a
new sleep state to the default wallpaper
in ios now it’s a darker and more tinted
version that would work better for an
always on display mode that’s been a
long rumored feature and you can check
out this demo video from 9 to 5 mac this
isn’t the actual official feature in
action but a concept and the thinking is
that apple will replicate the behavior
with the always on display of the apple
watch with the new iphone 14 pro now the
apple watch right we know it shows like
a darker more faint version of the watch
face until it’s raised and the idea is
that you’d still be able to see your
iphone wallpaper widgets and information
when your display isn’t active now
reports believe this feature will only
be coming to the higher end iphone 14
pro lineup because of course this is
clearly a
pro feature now reports from display
analyst rash young have claimed that the
new iphone 14 pro displays will be more
advanced and be able to go as high as
120 hertz and as low as 1 hertz while
the current 13 pro lineup ranges from
120 hertz to 10 hertz so going as low as
1 hertz will help improve energy
efficiency for the new iphone but i
think there’s a good size group of
people who would just rather the display
go all the way black show crucial
information like android phones have
been doing for years but
you also know that apple they got to do
something a little different so
we have just about what a month to wait
and see what apple will officially tell
us now it’s still rumored that the new
14 pro color this year will be purple
you know how much i love that and i just
don’t want to be let down if it doesn’t
happen so
i’m gonna just believe it when i see it
there’s also some other rumors that you
might have missed for the iphone 14
lineup according to analyst ming chi quo
the new 14 pro and 14 pro max could
adopt a vapor thermal chamber system to
keep the phone cooler and this helps it
operate at a normal working temperature
with its more powerful a16 bionic
processor and then you have larger
batteries a similar system is already
being used in phones by samsung razer
and others so this is not original but
the biggest change is still expected to
be the new camera system with the main
wide-angle camera having a 57 larger
sensor so that’s gonna result in sharper
detail with photos and improved
low-light photography it’s also expected
to be a 48 megapixel camera versus the
12 megapixel on the current high-end
lineup and potentially even capture 8k
video for the first time on an iphone
now the front camera let’s not ignore
that it’s also expected to be getting a
boost on the iphone 14 series with
autofocus capabilities and then you’re
going to get a wider f19 aperture for
better low light photography from the
front-facing camera now i know we’re
talking pictures let’s just talk storage
here because last year that was the
first iphone that had a one terabyte
storage capacity this year reports claim
that we could see one with a two
terabyte hard drive would i love to see
that of course yes but
knowing how slowly apples move when it
comes to device storage in order to see
costs just stay lower for them
i’m pretty skeptical about this but hey
i hope i’m wrong now 2022 could also be
the year that we say goodbye to the
physical sim card tray in a memo to
carriers obtained by mac rumors now some
carriers and models of the iphone 14 may
feature no sim card at all and run
entirely on esim technology this year
reports have also claimed that esim will
be the new default for the iphone 15 in
2023 and bloomberg’s mark german reports
apple has started to record its virtual
september event that’s where we expect
to see the announcements for the new
iphone 14 lineup the new apple watch
series 8 and potentially the new apple
watch pro or new rugged model the event
will reportedly take place in the early
part of september even if you know
historically we’ve seen apple’s fall
event sometime during the third week of
september on that tuesday there’s also a
strong chance that we will get
two fall events one for iphone and apple
watch and then you get a second one for
ipad and the mac it’s happened before
and there’s still plenty we haven’t seen
from apple this year including the new
airpods pro
alright let’s take a moment to thank the
sponsor of this video spigen
spigen is a protective phone case and
accessories company that pushes the
boundaries of design and technology and
you have got to check out their new
arkstation pro gan dual usbc charger
lineup now these chargers use gallium
nitride technology or gan for short so
they’re super compact but they also pack
a punch with other smart features you
got quantum boost which automatically
detects and provides the maximum power
available to maximize the charging speed
of your devices intelligent power
diffusion collects all the power into
one port when only one port is connected
and intelligent safety is for
overheating protection these chargers
run 50 degrees fahrenheit cooler so that
means you’re getting less heat and more
power now the arcstation pro gan 352
dual usb c wall charger this is their
smallest and it pushes 35 watts with two
ports but is 40
smaller it also has one more port and
five watts more output than apple’s own
30 watt single port adapter so this is
perfect for charging an iphone and air
pods you get 30 watts in a single port
and then 25 watts and 10 watts when both
are being used at the same time now
let’s take a step up and charge your
iphone and ipad with the 452 that’s even
more juice with 45 watts and two ports
so that’s 45 watts being used for the
single port and 25 watts and 20 watts
when both are being used and then let’s
go large here now with the 652 that’s
about the size of an airpods pro case
but can charge a macbook pro or macbook
air and an iphone at the same time so
that 65 watts of power delivery for a
single port that would be on both of
those ports but if both are being used
you’re gonna get 40 watts and 25 watts
it’s 53 smaller than apple’s own 67 watt
single port power adapter and you can
match these up really against any others
and you’re getting the same or even
better power delivery with an even
smaller form factor with dual ports now
these chargers they’re a must have and
if you’re traveling and on the go like i
am you got to put one of these in your
bag so check out the links in the
description to get spigen’s new
arcstation pro gan dual usbc chargers
and their other great accessories okay
let’s get back to the stories here and i
had talked about in an earlier video how
the apple watch might be the most
intriguing product this fall you know
you got all this buzz around this higher
end apple watch pro that’s expected to
be more rugged and used for more active
users well the latest report claims that
you won’t see any design changes going
from the 41 and 45 millimeter apple
watch series 7 to series 8 and titanium
will not be an option for the standard
series 8 watches like it was for the
series 7. now mark german previously has
reported that the new higher end apple
watch will have a titanium casing with a
slightly larger display and a new design
but it will not be that flat edge
rounded corner design that we’ve seen
from earlier leaks there are also no new
sensors potentially coming to the
standard series 8 watches as well but
rumors have said that a body temperature
sensor is still a possibility for the
high end model as usual we’re expecting
the latest operating systems from apple
to arrive in the fall around the
iphone’s release but multiple reports
claim that apple is planning to delay
the launch of ipad os 16 by about a
month now this isn’t normal and i
honestly can’t remember the last time
this happened but according to bloomberg
the delay is partly due to apple’s new
multitasking capability called stage
manager for ipad os and that works when
on the ipad or even when you’re
connecting it directly to an external
display a new staggered schedule is
expected to feature ios and watch os
together in september and then ipad os
coming alongside the launch of new ipad
hardware with the new m2 chip and a new
entry-level ipad sometime in october now
alongside a mac os ventura you’ll also
see them which also does have the new
stage manager feature as well now i did
mention a new entry level ipad earlier
and newly leaked renders from my smart
price reveal what is believed to look
like the new ipad now it brings a
similar design to the ipad mini with
flat edges and rounded corners and a
camera bump so this kind of modernizes
the entire lineup this new entry-level
10th generation ipad is expected to have
a larger display a usb-c port for the
first time an a14 bionic chip and 5g
support while keeping its touch id home
button but the one thing missing here in
these renders that it appears the
entry-level ipad will no longer have a
headphone jack and you could debate it
all you want but the ipad still does
have more than enough room to
accommodate a headphone jack and i still
think it should now we have a new rumor
that claims the next gen 12.9 inch and
11 inch ipad pros will feature a new
4-pin smart connector that’s an update
to the current 3-pin connector on it and
the additional one could potentially
make it easier to power accessories
through the smart connector according to
mako takara now the new ipad pros are
expected to feature m2 chips and magsafe
charging capabilities
also the new apple studio display this
is getting a new firmware update to fix
audio issues after complaints from
multiple users audio would sometimes be
intermittent or completely distorted
which would require a reboot of the
display something that you never had to
worry about because right this studio
display has a lot more going on with its
six speaker system it’s got a webcam
inside this update is available now and
this is also the same display that also
had those webcam quality issues out of
the gates and then a software update was
released to address that with mixed
results for some users and guess what a
desktop needs a display and apple packed
a lot into display but you know another
desktop that’s coming potentially a new
mac mini with an m2 and m2 pro chips are
still in the works according to mark
german now their existence and
development was first reported by nine
to five mac originally apple had been
working on an m1 pro version of the mac
mini for release at the end of last year
but then apple held out they pivoted and
decided to wait for the m2 reports say
do not expect any major redesign for the
product and there are no plans to put
anything more powerful than the m2 pro
into the new mac mini
and you’ve probably already heard about
apple’s plans to resurrect the original
home pod for a release in early 2023
german reports apple is considering
releasing a new homepod mini alongside
the new home pod with a plan to make a
bigger push into the smart devices
market now there are no details given
but don’t expect something major or
significant design wise for the mini
apple’s still reportedly working on some
sort of a home pod product that combines
a speaker with an apple tv functions and
a facetime camera that may not be this
new one
in early 2023 but hey
honestly just make a big google nest hub
of your own apple like it’s okay to copy
everyone does
all right everybody that’s gonna do it
