This year is due to be an iPhone super cycle and the stars are aligning for massive changes in a lot of ways. In this video we have exclusive renders, details on the new chip and what it means as well as what others have COMPLETELY wrong about the first ever ULTRA iPhone. Let’s GO! Exclusive renders via https://twitter.com/Saad_IsmaiI AppleTrack's iPhone 15 Ultra video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJzS28icG70 Apple has, since the iPhone 6 typically spent 3 years with a design language before major updates. The iPhone 6, 6S and 7 lead to the full refresh at iPhone X, XS and XR and 11 and 11 Pro with the same round edges before the iPhone 12 brought the slab sides that followed for the iPhone 13 and 14 generations. This design style also features in the current iPad lineup too, starting with the Pro, then Air, mini and finally the 10th Gen iPad in October. Apple is expected to launch the A17 in iPhone 15 Pro and Ultra, the new name for iPhone Pro Max if the leakers are to be believed. That A17 is almost certainly going to be built on TSMC’s 3nm process which started its mass production this week. TSMC themselves have said that these chips will be up to 35% more efficient than their current 4&5 nm chips, though the last 4nm generation according to reports was more of a new generation 5nm in reality. Apple typically increases performance by between 10 and 25% generation over generation, but the 35% efficiency improvement would be the result of taking the same chip design and simply shrinking it to the new process, with the gains being made by less energy needed to move electrons the shorter distances within the SOC. Typically Apple uses these chip shrinks however to also add more transistors to the cores, neural engines and potentially extra unified memory too so the physical die stays about the same size and adds performance too. On a slight tangent, if you hear others saying that the 3nm chips could come to M2 Pro, M2 Max and M2 Ultra, just beware - I think those are too close to release for that to be practical, and I think the M3 generation of chips most likely to be released around WWDC in June is the earliest we’re going to see 3nm in a Mac. But, back to iPhone 15. And don’t worry, I’ll show you the renders pretty soon. They’re good. Assuming Apple follows the same path as last year, the base iPhone 15 will likely get the A16 chip from the 2022 Pro models with the iPhone 15 Pro and Ultra models getting that new A17 3nm chip. Both will likely get the new look however. It’s certainly not Apple’s first time working with Titanium either, way back apple created the PowerBook, MacBook Pro’s predecessor in Titanium, though to make the finish look good it was actually painted. More recently, the Apple Watch Ultra is a titanium cased monster, though it comes in just the one colour - raw titanium. Apple has been filing patents for new ways of colouring and finishing titanium though, and while titanium is certainly more expensive as a raw material than stainless steel by weight, titanium is also way stronger, so you don’t need to use as much to get the same level of durability, therefore its lighter to get the same result. All in all, raw material wise it adds an about a dollar to the materials cost of an iPhone. Speaking of colour, that’s pretty much the only thing Apple may not have 100% nailed down yet (though, honestly, it’s probably already decided. So I asked Saad Ismail to render this in Pantone’s Colour of the Year for 2023, Viva Magenta. Apple’s never made their Pro iPhones in a Product [Red] option, but this is pretty close, has a little edge of pink and I love it. That said, it will also dull tools faster while being machined, so there is additional cost in terms of production. Oh, and that curve we mentioned on the back, that’s where the other renders that Sam Kohl and ContentCreator went wrong I think. They put the curved surface onto the glass, which means you have a way more fragile device, whereas I think that curve will be in the band of titanium, with the glass inlayed and protected by the titanium itself to add to durability. As good as Ceramic Shield is, titanium is probably gonna take those impacts way better. All these hardware changes, along with most likely a camera improvement on the telephoto camera, maybe even getting that periscope lens for improved zoom may also be a great way to distract from the likely lack of new features in iOS 17, as Apple’s engineers seem pretty busy with following the EU’s ever evolving rules on third party App stores and their Digital Markets Act, but if you want to know my thoughts on that, I’m way ahead of you - click up here to find out why options aren’t always a good thing.

0:00 Intro 0:14 Apple Earnings Call 0:42 MacBook Pro More Repairable? 2:29 MacBook Pro Notch Issues 3:32 Notification Squad Apple earnings call later today, we’ll be live from 15 mins before the call as the numbers tend to drop early. Apple has made repairing the new MacBook Pros a little easier… the batteries now have pull tabs like an iPhone for easier…er replacement Presumably with these larger cells however, and improving pull strip technology, these could be pretty helpful. So, good job Apple, one bonus planet point right there. On this point however, I would say that its unlikely that any Mac in future with the POSSIBLE exception of Mac Pro will have any user upgradable parts. And I have to say, I’m fine with that. Upgradability and repair are different things, having the memory integrated with the CPU, GPU and storage is what makes the Apple Silicon Macs so incredibly quick. I do take issue though with Apple restricting display replacements for example which seems to be something they’re doing with the iPhones. Now I guess there are potentially security issues as that assembly includes the FaceID sensors, but I feel like that’s something that could be overcome. So… repairs, yes need to be doable, but Apple leads the industry in terms of supporting their hardware for a really long time with software updates, so their stuff stays out of landfill longer. And it seemed like my comments from a few days ago about how everything around the notch would know how to get out of the way was premature. Quinn Nelson, or SnazzyQ on Twitter That being said, you can open the Get Info window on the app, and enable a new option - “scale to fit below built in camera” which does it the easy way by basically putting back the top bezel on the display. So there’s a solution already there, but hopefully it’ll be improved soon. iCaveAnswers 4:48 Mr Zen #icaveanswers can you explain the difference between the Pro vs Max GPU options in relation to memory bandwidth? The pro has 200gb memory bandwidth and max 400gb. I want to run lots of virtual instruments (some piano plugins I use are 250gb monsters) and i've been told having the 400gb memory bandwidth is advantageous running big virtual instruments but I have no idea whether it's really needed and the pro would be sufficient? 6:30 Alan Be Unboxings and News #IcaveAnswers do you think apple could ever announce a m1 pro and m1 max imac pro mac mini pro and the Mac pro 7:04 Gaylord Focker #icaveanswers What do you think the M1 Max performance is with games running on parallel, and also can one play any windows game using this service? Enjoying the channel thanks! 8:00 Cleveland Ironman #icaveanswers - the current Mac Pro can use 1.5TB of RAM and give that Apple Silicon uses Unified Memory. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rBZ2dn7kYQ

iPad Pro’s BIG Redesign - This Month? My last video about Apple’s upcoming releases dropped PRECISELY at the same time as Apple’s announcement of the MacBook Air M3, which is the ONE new product I said they should do that way… Sooooo let’s have an event? The iPad Pro’s design is now getting about as long in the tooth as a walrus, having got its current design, give or take on October 30th 2018. That’s 1960 days. That feels like maybe too many. It was actually the first of Apple’s product lineup in recent years to take on the slab sides, 2 years ahead of the iPhone 12 generation in 2020, so what this new iPad design looks like could be genuinely fascinating as the direction we could see Apple’s other designs follow in the future. But what WILL it look like? There are rumours, but wouldn’t you prefer to find out at an event? Oh… you came here for that? Fine. Here’s the specs. Unfortunately, they don’t clear up much beyond it being thinner - but the edges could be rounded like the iPhone 15, but you could interpret these drawings more like the classic iPhone 4, with a glass sandwich over a metal, perhaps now Titanium frame? Admittedly that’s a lot more titanium than an iPhone would need, which could be pricy. And a big glass back on a thinner, but bigger device where it’s easy to get leverage sounds like a recipe for bendy iPads but not in the apparently cool “supposed to fold up” way. However, a glass, or at least partially glass back would allow for another feature we’ve heard about, MagSafe coming to iPad Pro. Wireless power has a notoriously bad time passing through what is in essence a big Faraday cage, but even a glass circle around the Apple logo would allow this. We’re also expecting of course new OLED displays and the front-facing camera to move to the landscape side. That’s interesting in itself, because it means Apple Pencils won’t be sticking to that side to charge any more, so either the pencil changes, or maybe sticks to the top now? Maybe it’s gonna be USB-C charging like the randomly solo-released version from last year. That kind of wraps up the iPad Pro’s new features that we know about, but we’re also hearing new Magic Keyboards coming with more of a MacBook aesthetic, we’re talking aluminium instead of the previous not-exactly durable fabrics. Sure, it’s a more premium experience, but for me, iPad should be more about iPad stuff. Sure, type on it if you need to, but don’t try to replace workstations with these, even with M3 inside. Then we’re also hearing M2 iPad Airs, which, at best may be exciting if they move the facetime cameras on them too, and we’re hearing about some redesigned camera bumps at the back, but otherwise, as they are right now they’ll basically be iPad Pros without the Pro Motion displays, a generation older M chip and that’s basically the whole thing. Nothing super exciting, not really sure why they’re a thing, but hey, they are. Then rounding out the iPads are the 10th Gen, which is the one most people should buy, and the iPad mini which I want to buy, and neither of these are likely to arrive this spring. They’ll both stay with A chips, so would fit well at the iPhone event in September as some nice little side attractions. And then, what is at best an outside chance of arriving at this event, but there is hope and I’ll tell you why in just a sec, the HomeView, or Home Hub, or whatever they call it. The little HomePod with an iPad screen taped to the side that’s designed for your kitchen, maybe bedside, maybe somewhere else. Let me know in the comments where you’d put it.

A quick two match video of the Kill Confirmed mode on Call of Duty Mobile, played on a 2017 iPad 5th Gen running an A9 Processor. I play without any accessories but record externally onto an iMac using a lightning cable and Quicktime player. While I'm by no means an expert FPS player, I love this as a casual game for the iPad.
