2014-09-08
hello and welcome to inside scoop im sue need us joining me is tim stevens editor-at-large for cnet Tim you have a invitation a coveted invitation to attend the apple event we are now at t minus one day it's happening tomorrow and there have been a flurry of leaks in the i would say last you know 72 hours let's talk about what we know for sure and then let's let's get to these leaks you know we're gonna see iphones right 16 yeah we're expecting two new iphones one in a 4.7 inch size which will probably be the new iphone 6 not bigger than what we've got now my point 7 inch to increase over before so quite a bit larger than before and it should be thinner as well because once you make phones larger in that dimension you can then make a mold of thinner but still offer the same battery life so it should be a nice upgrade in that regard thinner probably even lighter than the car phone despite being bigger I'm hoping it's stronger because I've been cracking my screen I know we're not gonna see sapphire glass right that's pretty much off the table but when I hear thinner and larger I think Snapple yeah that's definitely a big challenge I mean obviously a thicker device gives you a lot more torsional rigidity so it resists that sort of twisting a thinner device can Apple deliver the same sort of strength so hopefully we'll sweet we've seen some chassis leaks and things look pretty solid but you know you never know until you get in your pocket and sit on it they are known for having a pretty solid product okay so beyond the iphone the other thing that people are hoping for expecting is the iWatch right we even know that it's gonna be called in i watch no we actually haven't seen a solid leak on the name yet i think everyone's just assuming it's gonna be i watch which is a pretty catchy name but we're actually expecting multiple wearable devices possibly two different models so maybe they'll be two different names or maybe we'll be on watch now I watched light on we really haven't seen any indication but we're definitely expecting to see apples entry into the wearable market tomorrow finally after so many years of waiting okay any leaked images that seem more credible than the other stuff we did see some chassis leaks or sort of supported chassis leaks just this morning some supposed CAD schematics that show what the case looks like it's a rectangular a rounded rectangular device there's actually a lot of debate online about their legitimacy they may actually just be a test case to hold the actual i watch within it which would mean we still know what that I watched shaped like so not exactly very legit just yet we still don't know exactly what it's going to look like it what how exactly is gonna work questions leading to question there's still some intrigue for tomorrow which is good yeah and a lot of intrigue surrounding this white structure that's been built right next to the flint center right what is what's your best guess well I think we're gonna see a lot of people here tomorrow so probably gonna give us a little bit more room but I think we'll see a lot more with health getting home kit home get in particular going to give you more connectivity for appliances and things like that in the home and maybe you will even see some new stuff with car place so maybe they'll be maybe a Ferrari f12 parked on the show floor tomorrow morning that we can get get a demonstration of car play one can hope if there are two new phones and the smaller of the newer phones is 4.7 inches in terms of screen size do we know the dimensions of the larger phone we're thinking 5.5 which would give it a size right on the size of the new note 3 something like that so yeah definitely a large phone we're definitely a phablet territory we are and what's that going to enable you to do it gives you more resolution and we're expecting it to have kind of like an iPad style interface at least if you hold the phone sideways so for example if you're in the calendar app you'd get your agenda on the left and then you'd actually have the traditional calendar view on the right so more work more visible space and more of a professional feel I think all right so we know you're gonna be there you're going to be live-blogging we'll be live-blogging it's gonna be pretty exciting we're gonna be typing away myself and char are gonna be giving you the blow-by-blow there will be a live video stream so you can watch that too but you always want some commentary to go with your sports right ok we'll be there with a commentary excellent Tim Stevens thank you so much thank you for inside scoop I'm Sumi das thanks for watching
