what's going on Brian Tong here and welcome to the Apple buy for everything good and bad inside the world of Apple are you all tired of the iPhone news and rumors you know even if it's still six months out well let me try to spare you this week April is just around the corner and all the talk is about new iPads now a report from digit Times says Apple has moved up their production plans for the new rumored 10.5 inch iPad and will unveil the product at an event in early April right now we're expecting to see an edge-to-edge display with a possible virtual home button and a form factor that is almost the same physical size as the current 9.7 but it will gain point eight inches in screen size by getting rid of the bezels on the sides earlier reports said the new 10.5 inch model would not be ready until May or June that might still be the case but it's now been pushed up which could mean an earlier release date an upgraded nine point seven inch is expected to be a minor refresh with just that a 10x chip for a speed boost a refresh twelve point nine inch iPad pro the iPad that I'm looking at better get at least the true tone display and we expect to see both announced at an April event but the availability of the entire iPad family might be a little staggered now analytics firm fist few reports that they have seen for new iPad identifiers appearing in their logs they're labeled iPad 71 72 73 and 74 and represent the next gen iPad fisca says roughly 40 devices have been spotted and this is normal to see about a month before a new product announcement now some of the iPads were spotted running iOS 10 point 3 that makes sense and some we're even running iOS 11 we know this iOS 11 isn't expected until September during its normal release time but that's not all running a new OS the co-founder of firry Games reports a device with the identifier Apple TV 6 - has appeared in its uses logs running TV OS 11 with an IP address within you know a close proximity of apples headquarters now the current Apple TV is known as Apple TV 5 3 all signs would point to new hardware coming and multiple reports including Bloomberg have claimed a new 4k model could come as early as this year now my suggestion get a a 10 X processor in there for 4k support get rid of the requirement for games that have to work with a standard remote only so guess what we can get more in depth games you know even if it feels a little too late for that you're also way too late on that TV streaming service but if you get one you know then it becomes a whole lot more interesting for people outside of the ecosystem Apple has also released the seventh beta for iOS 10 point 3 which brings find my air pods Apple's new file system and even a podcast widget like the music app has they've also released the seventh beta for Mac OS ten point twelve point four whose biggest change is the addition of nightshift to the Mac now with the seventh Vedas out we should be getting an official release very very soon also the big a release our newest TV commercial called sticker fights and it's a fun ad promoting Apple stickers for their messages app but let's go back to that caterpillar sticker or waffle scene what's that on the left side like if you ask me it looks like a white iPhone 7 now I put it on Twitter and some people said it's the silver iPhone but look at all those white things in that shot they're all the same color that's white and the knife above the plate that's silver in that shot and if it was the silver iPhone you see those like antenna lines on the top edges but I don't see them there now there were rumors of a jet white iPhone 7 that still haven't seen the light of day but that looks like a white iPhone to me and I probably spend way too much time on that you know maybe it's a white iPhone story ok let's wrap things up on a good note there are very few Apple ones in existence let alone ones that work but according to the Telegraph a German auctioneer will be making a functioning Apple 1 available for an option with an estimated sales price of 320 thousand dollars there are believed to be only eight working units in existence the Apple 1 will also come with all of its original documentation from the computers first and only owner including the receipt and original manual you know just like how you all do your eBay auctions when you're reselling Jordans it easy is that I can't get any more because of all of you all right that's going to do it for this week you can email us at the Apple bite at cnet.com or to me at brian tong thanks so much for watching we'll catch y'all next time for another bite of the Apple
