What We Expect from the Next iPhone Event!

I kind of think we just jump into Apple event predictions because they have consumed our week so far mostly because it's on September 9th which is a Monday which you come on Monday this sucks wow all right from what I heard it was supposed to be Tuesday like it is every single year but there is a presidential debate now on September 10th Tuesday and apparently Apple moved it now if you have been in this for way too long like we have this is really funny because in around 2018 apple or one plusus was supposed to have a huge launch event for like the OnePlus 6 or the 6t or something and they had set it for sometime in October and they set it months ahead of time it was in like March I don't remember I think it was October okay it was months ahead of time and then Apple randomly decided to announce their event two weeks before and OnePlus was like whoops because it was on the same day yeah yes exactly the same day so one moved their event to like a month later which had already been invites and sent out for like a while people flight were booked yeah and they had to be like well we cannot do this on the same day so now this Apple event is Monday September 9th so it's consumed our week because we've been managing hotel bookings and flights yeah cuz we were like we're like we're finally going to get ahead of this we're going to book all our flights and hotels early we're going to get this done we for trying to be we have a pretty good idea it's usually the second Tuesday in September we got this yeah it wasn't yeah it was really funny because there was a rumor that went out that said it was going to be September 10th and then Marquez put in slack I'm feeling like a genius I blame that post it wasn't the debate that changed it it was that post that changed right it was they couldn't be accurate to the leak so they had to move it funny enough I saw people speculating if Marquez was going to be able to cover the Apple event because he's in Australia oh which also made all of this much more annoying is he is flying into San Francisco to go to the event from his tournament in austral austalia yeah now that is a much tighter timetable but he Marquez is not going to miss this event no no shot I think he's showing up the morning of the event which no he's not really I think he is he is crazy I know he's crazy parachuting out of the 17 hour difference or something and he's yeah it's it's a mess anyway uh let's get into the actual predictions uh the event invites went out this week and the tagline this year was it's glow time clearly a it Showtime plan words I don't know how I didn't get that but thank you clearly um and then there's an animation that shows it basically turning into Siri the Apple new Siri new Siri so clearly apple is going to be highlighting the new version of Sira and apple intelligence at this event which is funny because it's not going to actually launch on the iPhones right do we think this is going to change anything we all assume it's not going to be launching at the don't think so it's coming out at in 18.1 which is scheduled for October okay yeah so this are with this also like this clearly means they're going to spend so much of the event talking about this oh yeah is 2024 going to be the year of like the really boring smartphone events because they all just feel like like this is just going to feel like dubdub where the pixel one just felt like IO like they were IO junor and dubdub junor that's what we're seeing this year Weenie Hut Jun it's so boring which is such a shame too because that new pixel Hardware was incredible and just completely overshadowed by all this stuff I don't think that an iPhone Hardware is going to be much different this year minus the brown color but yeah we can go over some of the rumors yeah let's do it so the pros are supposed to have bigger screens again which is crazy now we have very yeah very very big screens and also there's apparently going to be a dedicated shutter button for the camera oh oh on the 16 Pros okay yeah cool that's interesting yeah wait so the but what about the volume ER what about the volume rocker that already takes the no I think it'll be it'll be on the bottom right side because when you turn your phone sideways to take a photo your natural resting position oh I would find that super interesting first first question the action button the remappable one did you have the opportunity to map that to a shutter you can make it open the camera and I think when the camera is open you can use that as a shut but it is in the less ideal spot in the left because when you're crunching your finger up like that you have a better shot of your other fingers blocking the camera lens right there so the right side does make more sense yeah I don't know why I feel like it would be so weird seeing an iPhone with that extra button on it I mean it's going to be it is but I think that they're on this weird campaign and they have been for a years where they just want you to see your iPhone as a replacement for a professional camera every Apple event for the last like three to four years has been like you could replace your entire Cinema setup for this use Final Cut camera with five I ads and five iPhones and attach a hard drive to it with like Thunderbolt and you cinematic mode and bokeh and all this and right do we think it'll be the same Button as the action button like the same shape I think I'm also I don't know might be circular if you had a thread Mount and you could use a exposure that' be cool it won't it would be sick it would be sick um yeah that are there any changes to the um weren't there some rumors that like the camera was going to look different is that on the regular iPhones that's on the regular ones those and then that's going to be the like stacked camera similar to like the iPhone yeah to enable it to do spatial video in horizontal mode okay yeah because currently they're they're uh diagonal and for a spatial video you have to have the Parallax so they have to be right on top of each other yeah but what's interesting about it is the bump itself also is smaller according to these rumors leak are we looking at the yeah some of the leaks are showing it I don't know if they're leaks or renders that are just rumors but M showing it a little more like the iPhone 10 yeah yes I believe looks really good it does I think it looks good I think it looks good I do we think that's actually going to happen I think so yeah yeah because they tend to release new software stuff with the hardware in the Pro Models and then the next year bring it to the cheaper model okay and so spatial video I think is going to be one of the highlights this year yeah yeah I just think like the two so diagonally in the Square camera bump looked fine yeah but stacked in the bump like it was on the 11 I think looked bad cuz there's just so much extra like Square bump for no reason I think this looks way sleeker and yeah besides that it's kind of just the bigger screens on the pros uh we might get a I think that they're supposed to be a higher resolution one of the other cameras is higher resolution now cool you know how much bigger is the screen uh let me see is this going to be like significantly bigger or is this going to be like we made the bezels 1 mm smaller and like no one really can tell the difference it says the 16 Pro Max will be 6.9 in where last year it was 6.7 oh which is significant that is a significant difference yeah that's pretty huge okay so that's the rumor anyway big boy yeah so that's it for the phones generally and I think that they feel like they can do that this year because Apple intelligence is going to take up so much of the Keynote uh but there are some other big things coming out like for example this is the 10th version of the Apple watch so whether they whether or not they go with series X yet again Apple watch X or if they just do series 10 I'm not really sure um but it is supposed to be slightly redesigned with it's going to be a thinner watch apparently and have bigger displays even bigger and the Apple watch SE is apparently going to be made out of plastic which fun I find ironic considering every company is like we're reducing all plastic in our entire supply chain except the actual device I guess if it's recycled maybe that but I I don't know the inner workings of plastics that well maybe that's an easier way for them to recycle it and be cheaper and be able to fit more into it my guess is also that a lot of these companies are moving towards trying to capture the kids market like Fitbit just really stay for kids band and there's all this like I think that lot of these companies see that as a potential like Market opportunity which is weird but here we go uh so I think that they basically see it as like oh well if we have a plastic Smartwatch parents won't think oh my kid's going to destroy this really nice piece of Hardware which is funny cuz the top of it is still all glass or or is you saying that that will be plastic no no I think the body okay the body will be plastic that's just the rumor yeah so they're still going to destroy it most likely yeah most likely um but yeah we don't really know anything else about the actual Apple Watch series 10 so I think seeing that in in real life is going to be really interesting it will be if you had to bet on it being Apple Watch series X X you think so or so 10 but with the x or just 10 well isn't that what the 10 I know but let's just call it X but people are going to get mad they're it wasn't called The X it was the 10 yeah I like X better they'll probably say 10 but use an X cool yeah I'm going straight X they're going to say X on the stage series x.com um also there are apparently going to be new airpods but unfortunately not the airpods we were hoping for uh the rumor is there are going to be two new models that are low and mid-tier models they look more like the pros but just have worse Hardware internally okay the mid tier will finally get ANC for the first time that has been a thing that has been reserved for the pros in the past interesting and when you say looks more like the pros are we talking silicon tips in the yeah short stems okay silicon tip I know there's a lot will there still be a model without that I know there's a lot of people who really don't like Silicon it's a great question understand that I have a feeling they may sell them alongside each other is it going to be like the apple pencil deal where like there's airpods and then there's the airpods that are the same but they're kind of different and then there's airpods Pro and then yeah do you have to use a dongle to charge straight lightning into each airpod yeah and I'm assuming the cheapest model will probably not have mag safe and you know that kind of stuff maybe even still charge with lightning maybe they haven't been forced yet so not yet we'll see and no airpods Max right yeah this is the craziest thing the airpods max came out so long ago like 3 years ago I think Mar said in the Dyson video four years yeah wow thanks for
