welcome to your Tuesday tech news update everybody I am Robert Rosenfeld and welcome back to the lowdown this is the show that breaks down the top stories the chat world and gives you guys the info that you really need to know today we're learning more about the specifics on those three new iPhone models launching soon also for tonight is slowly rolling out to many Android devices though there are some hoops that you're gonna have to jump through to get things all up and running I'll tell you about that and when they finally be getting a new budget Apple laptop this fall to replace that really old MacBook Air let me break this all down let's talk about all these rumors here's the lowdown like I just mentioned we're learning more about that trio of new iPhone models launching this fall and it looks like Apple may finally be moving closer to building an iPhone that officially supports a stylus as one of its new flagship features we're hearing reports that the newer premium models of the iPhone and maybe even that budget model will have Apple pencil support similar to the newly refreshed iPad in the older iPad pro models reports are also indicating that Apple's lower end iPhone model would come with a starting price tag between $6.99 to 749 and even that updated iPhone 10 maybe a hundred ollars cheaper this time around in the current model available at 899 instead of the starting price tag of $9.99 that we have now but that's just the beginning we're also hearing rumors that a 512 gigabytes storage option is available for the higher-end iPhone models no pin point on price just yet but I'm sure a next-gen iPhone 10 plus with 512 gigs of storage is gonna cost a pretty penny though many users will definitely appreciate that extra local storage space Apple is ramping up production on all 3d iphone models right now and we could see an announcement coming in just a matter of weeks we're hearing right now maybe the week of the 14th in September may be the time we see these new iPhones for tonight is slowly making its way from Samsung devices to a wide range of Android phones and tablets there's some work you're gonna need to do to get things up and going the cross-platform battle royale game is available on many Android devices though you're going to want to double check epics website to make sure your device is compatible and because Epic Games is bypassing the Play Store for their own installer it's a bit tricky to get the game up and running you can currently sign up for the fortnight Android beta waiting list on epics website and you can log in with the account you're currently using to play for a night or create a new one and after a few days of waiting you should receive an official invite that you can use to register and download the four night installer onto your device and you'll be ready to go and play though you'll need to keep that installer on your device because that's the way the game is going to stay up to date users have begun getting their invites so it looks like the beta is beginning to roll out to more and more users on more and more devices though you may still need to wait a few days and things are of course a bit easier if you own a Samsung device just head to the game launcher and search fortnight and you can start playing right and Apple may be working on a low-cost laptop that would finally replace that aging MacBook Air insiders and rumors have been reporting for months that Apple is working on a lower-cost entry-level machine that would abuse some time this fall and those rumors have picked up again after a little bit of a lull we don't know a whole lot about this machine right now not a lot of specs not even initial starting price point but honestly almost anything would be better than the current barrier to entry of Apple laptops right now the lower end MacBook Air that's honestly largely been unchanged since it was released 10 years ago we can speculate that it'll probably have a lower end but much newer Intel processor a Retina display and maybe even a refresh look to more mere the design of the MacBook and the MacBook Pro and speaking of the MacBook it was long rumored that it would become the replacement to the MacBook Air dropping in price point to be Apple's newest entry-level machine but that has not seemed to happen yet in the past few years and the MacBook still sits at a relatively expensive starting price tag of $12.99 we may see this new budget Apple laptop launch sometime this fall and I want to ask you guys these series of questions what would you guys like to see I'm really curious what kind of design what kind of screen size port specs and of course remember that this is Apple's idea of lower end and Apple's definition of budgets so what do you guys think a realistic starting price point would see and would you pay it leave a comment down below and let us know and better yet send us a video message on Twitter or Instagram for a chance to be featured on the next episode of the lowdown and on the last episode of lowdown we talked all about the new products from Samsung unpacked and without getting in between the note 9 wars or the comments down below I liked what DIC VIII had to say he said this a Bigsby speaker an incredible amount of foot spa on the part of Samsung introducing a speaker based on a software feature that few Samsung owners care about other than how it can be disabled Bigsby may not be very loved by many users out there and rightfully so but I do have to give Samsung credit for at least building something to take on Apple Amazon and Google more products from these companies means more competition and no matter your smart assistant of choice more products and more competition ultimately lead to better products for everybody that is your lowdown for today everybody thank you guys so much for watching before you end this be be sure to again subscribe to the channel like this
