what's good brian Tong here and welcome to the apple byte for everything good and bad inside the world of Apple this week we're breaking down everything you can expect to see at apple September 9th event and I mean everything this event is going to be a beast so spoiler alert if you really want to trick yourself into thinking you can be surprised next week don't watch this because I'm including everything from iPhones to iPads to the apple TV and more now before we start we've got to give props and I should just call this episode the 925 mac apple bite because mark Gurman and his crew have really done amazing work breaking pretty much all the major news this week so let's get to it and first up the iphone 6s it's been confirmed that app will bring a new 12 megapixel rear camera to the 6s that will also record 4k video a first for an iphone thanks to help from its all-new a 9 processor and 2 gigs of RAM the front-facing selfie camera will also bring a flash by lighting up the screen with a quick white flash when the camera button is pressed the new iphone will be composed of 7000 series aluminum the same material in the Apple watch sport rose gold will also be a new color option matching the rose gold Apple watch copper light color if that's your thing now we've already talked about forced touch for iOS shortcuts although that might not be the final name for it on the iphone the 6s will also bring apple watch like animated wallpapers ranging from a colorful smoke to a koi fish in fact leaked images of the rumored 6s packaging feature a gold coin the phones are expected to keep the same storage configurations with 16 gigs 64 gigs and 128 gigs for the 6s starting at 199 and the 6s plus starting at 299 also starting at 16 gigs with a 4k video camera is a little surprising and that phone will fill up fast but 9to5 mac reports say Apple is sticking to it also multiple reports point2 September the 18th as the official release date and we don't expect to see the iphone 6c at all instead Apple will keep the 5s 6 and 6s at prices all right next up the iPads are planned to be at the event based on reports and my own confirmation the product I've been waiting for the iPad pro and a refreshed iPad Mini are expected to make their debut on sep tember ninth now the bigger 12.9 inch screen ipad pro is the actual planned name for the device and then if I'm access pre-orders will happen in late October with the device scheduled for November we know about it's upgraded a 9 processor and the expected force touch stylus with speakers on both sides for a better stereo sound experience it will also run its own iOS 9.1 that will bring additional tweaks while still supporting split screen view and multitasking while watching video no pricing has been revealed yet but the ipad is really my number one travel buddy watching movies and reading comics and magazines will never look better and i know this now the ipad mini 4 will be thinner with an a8 chip support split screen mode and will bring updated cameras and run iOS 9 alright we're also expecting to see macbooks getting speed bumps as well there's nothing too specific yet but if there's any bet to be made it's that Intel skylake processors will make an appearance at the keynote and the other product I'm excited about that will really be the headliner of the event the all new Apple TV 9to5 mac reports it will bring a faster a8 chip a color-matched black remote that will still be made of metal with a touch pad on top and two tactile buttons below for Siri functionality and the home button there will also be rocker buttons for volume that will run an iOS 9 core that will help in reducing the size of App Store apps and include the same ports on the back for HDMI power and USB but no confirmation of optical audio the Apple TV will also have a role to play with apple's home kit platform which we hope to see more of as well and gaming in the living room will be a major focus at the event an apple is seriously looking to take screen time away from gaming consoles this time around but the biggest omission which has been expected from a BuzzFeed report is that the Apple TV will not support 4k video and sure I know most of us don't have one but it would have been nice to be able to instantly stream 4k videos taken from your iPhone directly to your TV through the apple TV set now Apple has been I seen out an eight gig and 16 gig model and has considered to pricing strategies with a 149 and 199 model but at the very least we'll see a new appletv starting at 149 and we expect to see an official release date for OS 10 and iOS 9 normally arriving a couple days before the new phones so September 16th might be a safe bet watch os/2 will also get an official date an apple is expected reveal new colored apple watch bands they aren't of the gross pastel neon variety from the first time around so yes I know it's a lot to take in there won't be too many surprises after this but we love to hear from you the Apple biters about what you liked or disliked from apple's event have them ready and we'll talk about them all in next week's episode but before we go we had some viewer feedback from last week's episode that we had to read to you rich fisher rights in with brian you deserve a bad apple one that is rotten to the core really a crap apple hydrogen is written as H subscript 2 H subscript plus has no meaning H subscript plus is the hydrogen ion related to ph however a fuel cell combines hydrogen gas H subscript 2 and oxygen gas Oh subscript 2 bad apple to you um
