2018 iPad Pros, new MacBook Air and everything else we're expecting | The Apple Core

2018-10-24
the verdicts have arrived for the new iPhone 10 our and your October event preview let's get right to the core of this week's Apple news and rumors reviews are in for the iPhone 10 are and I've been reading a lot of them so that you don't have to now bottom line is that this one seems to be the iPhone for most people it has everything you need on an iPhone and it's 250 dollars less than the iPhone 10's if you are coming from an iPhone 6 7 or 8 it is gonna seem like a huge step forward now the biggest difference on this phone or at least what the reviews seem to say is the screen LCD versus all at which we already knew but for most people it's not gonna make much of a difference unless you're comparing them side by side or if you're coming from an OLED display whether that's an Android phone or an iPhone 10 but you're probably not going to switch from a 10 to a 10 aren't anyway the other difference in screen is that the bezels are thicker than on the tennis and the tennis max but again if you're coming from a 6 7 or 8 they're a lot thinner because it's edge to edge so it kind of doesn't matter now portrait mode is going to be different on this phone as well the 10s and the 10s max use that second telephoto lens to create this effect but the 10r does it with software only now the good thing about it is that you are gonna get a wider angle portrait shot and it's also better in low light now the bad news is that it only works for humans so if you're obsessed with your dog like I am portrait Road is not going to work it also doesn't work on any objects the other thing to point out that may make a difference is the fact that it has a different type of glass on the back it doesn't have that super durable glass on both sides of the phone like the 10s so it has an aluminum frame and not as durable of a glass on the back meaning it's probably going to break faster so you're gonna want a case on this and of course I'm gonna have to try this out so stay tuned for our drop test to come later on this week I vote in our pre-orders kicked off just after midnight on Friday October 19 I know because I was up late ordering our iPhone for our drop test and they're arriving in stores on October 26th now in the past these early presale numbers have clued us in on how well the phone is actually going to sell and within the first 24 hours none of the models seem to have delays later on though the hundred and twenty-eight gigabyte colored versions seem to have one to two week delays especially for the t-mobile carrier now does this mean that there's less demand for the iPhone 10 are probably not it all depends on how many Apple has in stock in fact analysts Mincha quo still maintains that this one is gonna be the best seller in the long run for Apple doing better than last year's iPhone 8 and that's TVD of course now remember Beauty gate it seems like we're not quite done with this issue quite yet this was the issue where users were reporting a smoothing effect on selfies taken from the front camera and originally we thought that it was due to the smart HDR which was kind of leveling out the highlights and lowlights and making skin appear more even now this may still be the case but Apple is now addressing it in the next I oh s 12.1 upgrade this according to a report originally published in the verge does this mean that Apple is finally admitting that there was a problem in the first place but let's leave all that in the past and take a look forward because that October event is almost here and the next time I see you guys we're gonna have a whole new lineup of Apple products to discuss now what are we expecting well first off to new iPad pros rumors point at an iPhone 10 like redesigned for the iPad line with slimmer bezels and face ID but no notch this time and it's not clear whether or not it will have an OLED display now the newest rumors are saying that it's gonna have that liquid Retina display like the 10r here you can see this render in 95 Mac which shows an 11 inch display and a 12 point 9 inch display they're not gonna have a headphone jack but they are gonna have a 4k video output now Apple could be getting rid of the Lightning port in the new iPad pros replacing it for a USBC charger this according to MIT Chico and now Mac o takara as cited in Forbes now based on the reports were also expecting a cheaper MacBook in this case it could be finally the sequel to the MacBook Air which could be 13 inches or 12 inches depending on what rumour you read it will have slimmer bezels and a Retina display and that touch ID support with a USBC charger like the new MacBook Pros and the price tag is still kind of up in the air originally we thought it was gonna cost 999 dollars like the previous MacBook Air but now a new digit times report says that it's gonna cost $1200 and the Mac Mini could finally get a refresh as well with new storage options and a better processor but this all is going to raise the price as well and it's probably gonna cost more than the $500 set it costs right now other products that could also make an appearance at this event include imax air pods with that wireless charging case that we've been waiting for a next-generation Apple pencil with less light I'm a smaller cheaper home pod to compete with the Google home Mini and the Amazon echo dot and lastly
