2016-06-02
hey what's up guys what's up mmm whoa are you sleepy no no just resting my eyes okay so I suppose eeeh what does this new show intro look like I'm stoked about this it's hot it's hot right we've been working on it for a couple weeks yeah yeah I mean it looks good but look no school it's like the hotness you mean you're sure you're sure to rose gold dude yeah it is yes so you guys think we can just add some rose gold in there yeah yes yeah okay rose gold rose gold rose gold all right what's happening Brian Tong here and welcome to the all new Apple buy for everything good and bad inside the world of Apple it's a brand new look with a brand new feel that's so fresh and so clean hmm Plus that intro rose gold alright let's get to the show and it's official Apple's WWDC keynote will take place on Monday June the 13th at 10 a.m. Pacific time after official invites were sent to the press this week that's just under two weeks away and you know we expect to see something special this year like new MacBook Pro rumors which are on fire and this time it's cool to Mac with leaked photos of what's claimed to be the next MacBook Pro that features a space for the rumored oled touch bar above the keyboard the photos also suggest that almost all the connectors will be replaced by USB C ports with two on each side and a hole that appears to be a headphone jack see apple's not getting rid of the headphone jack on everything now the pictures don't indicate how much slimmer if any the new MacBook Pro body is but reports have pointed to a release in the fourth quarter of this year now WWDC 2016 needs something to get our attention beyond software updates and hopefully we'll hear more about the new machine now in tech that we hope to see in Apple's hardware Samsung recently announced a 512 gig non-volatile memory Express solid-state drive that combines all the components into something smaller than the size of a u.s. saij stamp it's designed for next-gen PCs and ultra slim notebooks and capacity start at 128 256 and 512 gigs Apple is used samsung solid-state drives in the past so they could bring this to MacBooks and more in the future but nothing has been confirmed with the drives being so new also Intel has announced its next gen cabby Lake processors that are on track to release by late 2016 advancements over skylake and performance battery life and media capabilities come to the seventh gen Intel Core processor the belief was that skylake would be dropped into the next line of MacBook Pros but now based on rumors and timing cabie Lake could go directly into the Refresh lineup if not you can't imagine users being happy about getting a processor that's already out of date a month or two later for flagship Apple machine give us cabby Lake Apple also what else could we see at WWDC how about a refreshed Apple Thunderbolt 5k display with a GPU inside now reports say inventory has been unavailable or limited in multiple stores around the world and the timing would be ripe current Apple machines and even the rumored MacBook Pro are unable to run a 5k signal over a single stream cable which could potentially mean a built-in graphics card in the new display would be able to work with almost any Mac because it would be driven by its own internal graphics card so we will see what WWDC brings now I'm also a huge fan of the Amazon echo smart assistant and Google's now going for their own with the Google home but what about Apple a Senate report says Apple has explored putting a camera in the rumored Amazon echo like rival device that would be self-aware and detect who is in the room by using facial recognition technology the device would be able to instantly pull up a person's preferences such as music and lighting that they like well you know I like the lights dim and dark with some of that R&B now the report says Hardware could be released by year's end but it's more likely to be available in 2017 Apple could still change its plans to include a camera or even scrap the device entirely but you don't want to be the third player in a market and that's what it feels like right now and finally iPhone news you know we couldn't go a whole show without hearing something about that iPhone a new report from Japanese outlet Nikkei says Apple will be moving to a three-year major iPhone cycle claiming that the device will also bring a new vibration motor capable of producing more complex patterns and earlier iPhones now it could be an evolved version of its current taptic engine that produces different types of vibrations and feedback I'm not sure what other complex vibrations could really do to enhance the use of my iPhone but then again don't knock it if you haven't tried it and I know last week we talked about the potential of a new iPhone only bringing 16 gigs to start off but a claim by an IHS technology analyst says supply chain research indicates the iPhone 7 will start with 32 gigs for the 199 base model ok I will wait and see but if you want the latest iphone 7 leaked here's another for microblogging site Weibo with the redesigned antenna lines a space for the new single lens for the 4.7 inch model and that rose gold color because you know rose gold it's what everything should be now all right that's gonna do it for this week's show you can email us at the Apple buy to cnet.com or tweet me at brian tom tell us what you think of this brand new Apple buy 10 you know what I will read some of your responses both good and bad because I could take like a big boy thanks so much for watching we'll
