what's happened in Brian Tong here and welcome to the Apple bite it's the start of a brand new year and the crew and staff here is gearing up for CES 2013 in Las Vegas but I thought this would be the perfect time to give you my predictions of what you can expect to see or not see from Apple in 2013 so let's just knock out the no-brainers that even my momma could tell me in 2013 we will see the next Apple TV yep you've all been waiting for it I haven't been too high on it before and we even predicted in last year's show that it would come out in 2013 but honestly I'm getting a little intrigued now an Apple really has to hit it out of the park and start thinking different again it's crucial because you can bet we'll see everyone else's best bets at the next-gen Smart TV at CES 2013 we'll also finally see the next-gen Mac Pro's from the beg a heard uh now Tim Cook went on the record and said they'll be coming sometime later this year Desktop pros have been waiting over two years even I couldn't wait that long and decided to go with the new iMac so Apple do it right and let's also make sure you get apps like Final Cut curl up to snuff as well and the third gimme the iPad Mini will get a Retina display no Sherlock and they should have had it on the first one alright guys let's get to things I think we won't see in 2013 everyone is going googoo gaga for retina displays on everything even if there's a lot of non apple devices with higher res screens but I still think we won't see any for the iMac line or large displays yet because of the costs although I'll throw out this one exception Apple might do something bold and give their pro customers a Retina display Thunderbolt option for 2013 and start there and does Apple even care about the 17 inch MacBook Pro anymore well it will find out there's been rumors about Apple changing over to arm-based processors for desktops but we still won't see that transition happened this year and I might be wrong with this one but what the predictions show without risks Apple hasn't shown that it really cares about NFC chip technology it's clunky in real-world use and still hasn't taken off with a bunch of groups competing for different standards I'm going to say we won't see a dedicated NFC chip on Apple's next-gen phones this year and then let's get to the crazy out there prediction that might make you never watch this show again this one's for fun so don't go telling your friends this is real but I'm saying Apple will have two different size phones in 2013 I still think the current iPhone 5 screen is a little too small and a lot of women want it bigger because it still fits in their purse so we're saying Apple will come out with a larger screen phone and keep the current size as another option and honestly we already know what the iPhone 20 is going to look like now during our predictions and prognostications we feel it's important to bring a real expert in the field so we'd like to bring back our future telling friend well hello there Brian hey no show Tongass it's good to see you again man well I can't say the same nostra Tongass well MacBook Airs gonna retina display this year what yes yes of course they will please challenge me next time next question will I be able to trust apples and apps again remember the last genie I dated or she was so hot but she broke my heart use Google Maps next question why is it my iTunes booty less working on the ladies Nora Tanya says less boys to men and more Bieber hey hey mr.
