man it is so good to have you back man the old office good to be here I know it's been way too long it has been a while have you seen everybody yeah I saw the editors I hung out with the mailroom guys for a little bit grab a bite you know what's cool what about Brian uh-huh really he really hasn't gotten over you actually it's been two years man say goodbye what's good Brian Tong here and welcome to the Apple buy for all the good and bad inside the world of Apple this week it's the stuff Apple didn't show you an iOS 8 and product rumors galore let's get to it and we'll start off with the gadgets Apple still hasn't shown us according to a new report from Mac generation Apple is plenty to update its iMac line next week with speed bump and lower prices we aren't expecting these IMAX to bring a Retina display just yet and they could surprise us but recent evidence in the OS 10 Yosemite beta points the direct references to Retina display imax in the near future now in more Mac news that we couldn't get to last episode Intel announced our next-generation Broadwell chipset that will be used in devices that will go on sale later this year the Intel Core M processor will be the most energy-efficient one in the company's history and even better a majority of designs based on this chip are expected to be fanless a fanless chip is a big deal and I don't know if we'll actually see that tech integrated into Apple's laptop line like the rumored 12 inch MacBook Air it's not likely but we'll see all right Korean site ET news reports displays for apple's next iPad air are set to begin production this month with the camera module entering production soon as well we're still expecting an updated a a8 processor an upgraded camera and touch ID this time around with rumors still pointing to a September October release based on the past history of iPad releases and watch out multiple reports including the Nikkei and recoat are saying Apple is aiming for October with an apple event in the same month to show off the device the Nikkei reports it will use the curved OLED touchscreen and will use biometric sensors to collect health-related data even Apple has already started pushing the idea of health and fitness with their new ad go you chicken fat go I mean what do they even mean by chicken fat I didn't even see it in the video okay that's disgusting and I'm going to finish this show without throwing up all right AppleInsider found the big a was recently granted a patent this week for a weightlifting tracking system that uses a standalone sensor to transmit metrics to a remote display including a wristwatch a sensor Laden device would attach itself to a weightlifting bar and counts and displays repetitions or what we call in the workout community reps now this is just one of the examples that perfectly aligns with the idea of Apple's next-gen wearable but come on I don't need a watch to keep track of my reps that's right I work out now the iOS 8 and OS 10 Yosemite beta have been out for a while now so we just wanted to go over some of the things L didn't show you or really get into detail at WWDC the rumored split-screen multitasking is still in works code related to apps running side by side has been found in the beta and it will reportedly only work in landscape mode and may be limited to the iPad air initially also iOS 8 will be able to show battery usage by app so you can find out which one draws too much power that one's super helpful there will be a time lapse mode for the camera which is a great built-in Edition Safari includes the option to request the desktop version of the website on your mobile device you can set a time of 30 days or one year to remove your stored messages and free up valuable space and your recent photos will also show up so you can add them quickly instead of always going to your photo library to find them there's a grayscale mode for accessibility and there will be an option that will allow users to place calls over Wi-Fi instead of the older cellular networks saving minutes data and the best part better call quality so there's still plenty more little bells and whistles but those are just a few of the smaller useful changes we can expect an iOS 8 when it's available to the public this fall and if you thought Apple's Maps we're all figured out they're not we were expecting to hear about the new improvements but techCrunch reports that many developers left the company and improvements for iOS 8 maps just weren't finished in time now the story continues that tasks were badly planned developers were jumping from project to project and internal politics issues were more significant contributors to the failure to complete maps on time yikes now do we even have to question this that's a bad apple and I'm still not using those maps and you thought I wasn't gonna show you an iPhone 6 rear shell case this week right well here they are thanks to Taiwanese race car driver Jimmy Lin who is flaunting his iPhone six mock-up case thing he's a cool guy it's not the real thing because if it was really working he would have turned on the screen but more importantly what can we learn from these photos use nail clippers alright that's gonna do it for this week's show send us your emails to the Apple byte at cnn.com or tweet me up Brian Tong and if it's your birthday you might get a special wish and if not it means I don't care that's gonna do for this week's show I'm Brian telling thanks so much for watching it will catch you all next time for another bite of the
