what's good brian Tong here and welcome to the apple pie for everything good and bad you name it inside the world of Apple there's lots of iphone news and rumors this week with September tenth getting closer so i just wanted to prepare you for it and we start with a report from The Wall Street Journal that says Apple's ask their assembler Hon Hai Precision industry company to begin shipping the new high-end and low-end phones in early September we even predicted on this show last year that Apple should bring two phones to the market yeah i know we predicted two different screen sizes which we're probably not getting but it looks pretty certain that we'll see apple announcing two different iphone models at the same time for the first time and everyone remembers their first time riding a bike now we told you last week about the rumors of a gold phone you know that one well now all things D is confirming that Apple will indeed release a gold iPhone that's more of an elegant gold tone like champagne now their sources say it will be a white front face with a gold-tone backplate and chamfered edge like this mock up from I more and it made me wonder what other great things have we seen that or gold well the Olympics have the gold medal Mario jumps around to collect gold coins and in Japan they have the golden turd and there's even pills with 24 karat gold flakes in them so you can actually poop gold clearly the gold iPhone has some really prestigious company now the iphone 5c is still getting hated on by the hardcore Apple fans but the reality is that it's not a phone targeting them KGI analyst ming-chi kuo is predicting that the 5c will actually replace the iphone 5 in the lineup and it will support tdd-lte used by china mobile to give apple a huge boost overseas but the expected iphone 5s will still be the more popular model globally and exceed the five-seat in shipments all right this week's leaked apple cart from nowhere else FR is the rear shell of the next gen ipad and ipad mini ah it jives with everything we've heard and seen about the design over the past few months so we thought we'd just show it to you anyways and looking into the future with apple patents the big a has been granted a patent called working with 3d objects for 3d gesture control on touchscreen devices now this would allow the user to extend the multi touch capabilities used on the screen to the airspace above the screen allowing for 3d manipulation of objects with 3d gesture inputs so you can spin a dice around that would be displayed on the screen while your fingers are manipulating it above it and it's something I've always wanted to do in life now if you guys missed this one Apple's also researching flexible headphone connectors to prevent them from potentially breaking by using flexible or elastic parts on the connector the plug would be able to withstand moderate bending that might break other connectors and no one wants a connector stuck inside a port all right to the quick bytes gene Nike FuelBand developer and fitness expert Jay Blahnik confirmed he has joined Apple's team and is likely working on something that goes maybe on your wrist or even the next I headband I want that now all signs point to something i watch related obviously but the FuelBand is honestly the weakest fitness band of the bunch and it just has Nikes marketing muscle so we better see more than just a made-up calculation we can't track called fuel on the next i watch and I'm sorry but I'm just keeping it real all right google has updated some of its apps with some really cool bells and whistles the YouTube app on iOS has just been updated and you can now multitask in the app by dragging your video from the top to the bottom to have your video playing in the bottom corner while still searching for more videos and swiping to get rid of it it's a sweet update we're checking out so you guys should look at that and if you're using google maps like i am they've started integrating traffic data from their acquisition with ways so you can see if there are any accidents road construction or hazards in your area by going to the traffic tab in i'm loving this update and the jobs movie you know the one with ashton kutcher has been out in theatres and it made an estimated 6.7 million dollars over the weekend according to box office mojo the Steve Jobs biopic earn less than one-third as much as the facebook an apple co-founder Steve Wozniak called Kutcher disingenuous and believes the movie is wildly inaccurate it also has a 26-percent rating on rotten tomatoes in yikes that's a bad apple now this isn't looking good maybe some of you enjoyed it but I'm not planning on seeing it and I'll wait for Aaron Sorkin's interpretation instead because he's pretty good all right our show is out early this week because I'm in the NYC so we're going to extend the monster DNA headphones giveaway valued at over two hundred dollars for one more week that means you have more time to send me your video submissions of you dancing like a crazy it can be a youtube vine or Instagram and send your link to the apple byte at cnet com or tweet me at brian Tong and this has to be a video you just shot because people sending me links from like two years ago it ain't going to cut it in you really need to bring your a-game all right that's going to do it for this week's show I'm Brian Tom thanks for watching we'll catch you guys next week for another bite of the Apple
