this is the last apple core before the Apple event so here's a look at everything you need to know iPhones are pretty much a given at this event and if the rumors are true we're gonna be getting three new models this year as shown in this video by Mike the Detroit Borg a 5.8 inch iPhone 10 sequel a larger plus version with a 6.5 inch screen that you can see to the end and the one in the middle a 6.1 inch LCD version of the 10 now for my sanity's sake today we're gonna be calling them the iPhone tennis iPhone 9 and tennis plus although it's highly possible that the official names will be something completely different Apple is rumored to be getting rid of the plus branding and calling both OLED models the 10s now with that out of the way let's focus on the 10 s's and they may look a lot like this I don't know how they got their hands on this picture but 95 Mac seems pretty sure that this is the real deal and if it is we can confirm that they have a similar design to the previous 10 and a new gold color option they'll both have an a 12 chip with a second-generation face ID and upgraded dual camera the plus model may get a dual SIM support with wireless fast charging capabilities and Apple pencil support but that last rumor seems to be losing steam so I wouldn't bet on it they're also rumored to cost around $8.99 and $9.99 for the base models and with an option of 512 gigabytes in storage but perhaps the more interesting iPhone this year would be the 6.1 inch iPhone 9 and based on Apple's order numbers even the company is expecting this one to be the bestseller the design would be similar to the iPhone 10 with a few small differences including more color options as shown in this mock-up video by concepts iPhone that LCD display will have slightly thicker bezels the frame would be aluminum rather than stainless steel with a single camera on the back and chunkier body now inside it could still run that a12 processor but it may run a first-gen face ID and no 3d touch also maybe in this phone dual SIM option this one would start at around $6.99 with a Mac storage capacity of 256 gigabytes but you'll have to wait longer to get it if analyst maangchi quote is right on the money about the expected production delays now inside the box they may all be getting a USB C to lightning fast charger but no dongle this time around which apparently is the best selling Apple product at Best Buy so expect it to continue in its spot of number one for next year and the other rumored product that's almost as much of a sure thing as the iPhones at this point is the Apple watch series 4 and again thanks to nine-to-five Mac we have a pretty good inkling of what this will look like definitely more screen real estate 15% more with slimmer bezels and a slightly slimmer design at least that's what appears to look like on the photo it also shows a microphone below the digital crown this time which now has a red outline instead of that ugly red dot that I hated from the series 3 and a lot more complications on the watch face with what seems to be a new UV exposure reading on the bottom a feature which Apple had already patented a few months back now it's no secret Apple is doubling down on health for its Apple watch so I wouldn't be surprised if we see other sensors similar to a UV sensor in this next version of the Apple watch maybe an SP o2 sensor perhaps sleep tracking or somewhere along these lines what's definitely a sure thing on September 12th our software updates Apple will release iOS 12 watch OS 5 Mac OS moment eb OS this latest iOS update will bring group notifications digital health features sake a screen time controls multi player AR and mean emojis to all your iOS devices well actually that last one is just for iPhone 10 but group FaceTime one of the features I at least was most excited about is not ready for primetime yet so we'll have to wait for a later version of iOS 12 to try it out we have a bunch of content of all the updates on cnet.com so make sure to check out more details on the updates coming to your devices after you finish this video and after a year-long wait Apple's air power mat is rumored to make its official debut at this event now it's not clear whether they will announce the price and availability on stage or if it'll be an update to the Apple Store later on that day but it really has to happen on September 12th now according to a recent report in Mac rumors it will cost you a hundred and fifty dollars to charge all these three Apple devices at once we knew it wasn't gonna come cheap guys now don't expect second generation air pods at this event you'll have to wait till 2019 for that but what we can't expect is the wireless charging case now personally that's all I'm expecting to see at this launch event but with Apple you never know so we do have to mention the other products rumored to be making their appearance before the end of the year starting with iPad pros this year we expect an iPhone 10 makeover for the iPad meaning slimmer bezels no home button and face ID in two sizes an eleven and a twelve point nine inch screen a recent Bloomberg report also says we can expect a new low-cost laptop and a Mac Mini upgrade this year now that 13-inch MacBook Air sequel would have slimmer vessels with a Retina display and a similar price point of around $1000 while the Mac Mini would get new storage options and better processor but at a slightly higher price now my guess is we'll see these products at another October event but we'll have to wait and see we think we know a lot about the products that Apple has in store for us but I'm at least hoping for a few surprises what's the one more thing you guys want to see you can follow the Apple event live on Sina calm and on YouTube starting at 9 a.m. San Francisco time on September 12 for all the pre-event details or just tweet me at Monaghan if you want to behind-the-scenes look at the event I'll see you on the other side
