2016-05-26
what's good Brian Tong here and welcome to the Apple buy for all the good and bad inside the world of Apple a lot have you been telling me enough of the iPhone what about the mac books well ask and you shall receive my friends after a new report by digit x Ming Chi quo that's also been corroborated by 9 to 5 math claims Apple will introduce a dramatically overhauled MacBook Pro later this year quo claims it will have a new thinner and lighter design with design cues taken from the 12 inch ultra-thin MacBook and adopt new metal injected molded hinges from the same company that makes them for the surface pro that we've talked about in the past the new MacBook Pros will also support touch ID and bring a new OLED display touch bar above the keyboard now this OLED touch bar will replace the physical function keys along the top of the keyboard and the new MacBook Pro is expected to support both USB C and Thunderbolt 3 digit times reports the new updates will come to both the 13 inch and 15 inch models sometime during the fourth quarter of this year we've told you to keep holding out in this looks to be the biggest revamp for the MacBook Pro line in four years now in another report digit x claims a new ultra thin 13 inch MacBook will be coming in the third quarter of this year expanding the line to include both a 12 inch model and a 13 inch model now the current 11 inch and 13 inch MacBook Airs could transition to become the budget laptop for Apple's lineup yes $8.99 for a budget laptop with the new MacBook Pros representing the feature-packed model and the macbook ultra-thin x' becoming the Super portables that were once occupied by the air see in a world of Apple you go from the best to budget in just a few years and that's a sad Apple now there's a lot of new iphone 7 leaks & rumors this week like a lot lots the latest iPhone plus parts leaked from Steve hammers offer show up a dual camera component that's meant for the iPhone 7 plus model but even more interesting storage capacity chips for the presume 7 plus at capacities of 16 64 and 200 56 gigs yeah you might have peed yourself a little bit with the 256 gig potential but seriously Apple you still might start off at 16 gigs let straight up embarrassing and you know what you're getting a pre-emptive bad Apple because you know they're stubborn and you know they will do this I'll write a new iPhone 7 plus schematic from HD blog shows a place for the rumored dual camera but no smart connector on the rear is indicated here leaving that feature potentially still up in the air also a purported photo of the casing of iPhone 7 from Weibo lines up with the recent schematics that featured a beveled protruding camera with a larger lens and the redesigned antenna lines on top of that nowhere else fr found a leaked iphone 7 case design that features the same larger hole for the 4.7 inch iphone camera but the case also has openings for more speakers there's two on each side similar to the new iPad pros and we haven't seen any iPhone designs with the floor speaker arrangement so it could just be bunk and the Taiwan economic daily news reports Apple has told its supply chain to produce 72 to 78 million units of the iPhone 7 for its launch that would make it the highest launch target since the six and clearly they believe that this phone is going to be a big deal Tim even said on CNBC it's going to give us things we can't live without so all of that is a damn the life of the iPhone 7 leaks & rumors and here's a fun one at startup fest in Amsterdam Tim Cook was asked if he knew where and when the first iPhone was invented Tim joked and said you know I thought I knew until last night last night Neely took me over to look at some Rembrandt's and in one of the paintings I was shocked there was an iPhone in one of the paintings now the painting in question was actually a piece of work by Pieter de hooch in 1670 called man handing a letter to a woman in the entrance hall of a house it hangs in Amsterdam's Rijksmuseum now Timmy has a point it kind of does look like an iPhone so it got me thinking if an iPhone was in a 1670 painting maybe it's in the other great works like Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa si si si there it is or how about the Last Supper look right there and you definitely didn't want to text Jesus then and even Michelangelo's creation of iPhone
