hi everyone Aaron here for zollotech and this past week we had the release of ios 16 beta 4. we'll
talk about when to expect beta 5 a little bit later we also had apple's earnings call where they
went over how much money they made over the past quarter and we're also expecting iphone 4 in just
about a month and a half so we'll talk about what to expect with the 2022 apple iphone event where
they'll show off the iphone 14 and more this is your news update for the week of august 1st 2022
and many people have been complaining to me about the dialer in ios since previous versions
where on android for example you can put in your phone number and it will look up a contact maybe
you're looking for someone you remember the first three digits and you want it to sort well someone
on twitter has come up with a new concept chris masterson and i think this would be a good way for
apple to maybe start to revamp the phone dialer app so he came up with this concept and as you
can see here it's got your pinned favorites your recents and then more below it i think this would
be great in order to search your contacts you could search regularly you could put in the phone
number and i do think it's time for it to get a little bit of a reba revamp as far as its design
they did add some nice features with ios 16 but the design seems a little bit old at this time
let me know what you think about this in the comments below according to aaronp 613 on twitter
it looks like beatsfitpro are getting new colors very soon he's been pretty accurate in the past
and it looks like we're going to have three colors umber ochre and micah coming very soon so if
you've been waiting for them but you wanted maybe a different color more skin tone type colors or
just more neutral colors those should be available fairly soon we don't have an exact date though
now tsmc who manufactures the chipset inside many of the iphones and the apple silicon max
has a new plant that they're opening in arizona soon they celebrated it being near completion
and it should go into production in 2024. the 12 billion dollar factory should start production
around then and manufacture five nanometer chips as apple continues to diversify its chip supply
around the world now if you're someone that's been wanting to try windows 11 but you have an
m1 or m2 apple silicon mac you can now do that in a virtual machine now that you no longer have
the boot camp option there's a currently a tech preview from vmware fusion you can try it out
and i'll link it in the description keep in mind it's a tech preview it could still have bugs but
at least you'll be able to try that out if you want to use it try some windows 11 features or
maybe you just need to run a program that doesn't run on apple silicon yet so i'll link that in the
description be sure to check it out if you're interested now apple had its earnings call this
past week and they had some huge earnings they had record earnings this time around again and
despite the economic slowdown in many places it looks like they're continuing to do quite well
for the iphones and everything else they came in at 19.4 billion in profits with 83 billion
in revenue iphone made up 40 billion of that ipad was 7.2 billion mac was 7.3 and wearables home and
accessories were 8 billion the surprising thing to me was their overall services which was 19.6
billion and they said they have 860 million paid subscriptions individually for all their services
however those are for services individually not users so it's a little bit tricky how they did
the numbers there 860 million subscriptions each person could have multiple subscriptions
but there's still hundreds of millions likely to be part of that number so that's a huge amount of
profit and tim cook said that despite reports of slowing down hiring apple will continue to hire
and just be a little bit more deliberate this way as they need more employees so maybe not as
rapidly but they are slowing it down a little bit it seems and they're doing just well and expect to
do even better with the iphone 14 launch apple has been planning an apple store for a very long time
in india but unfortunately it looks like they've delayed it again until early 2023 between january
and march according to india's economic times the store is apparently going to be around 22 000
square feet in mumbai with a second store planned for new delhi later at about half that size so
i know a lot of my indian followers really have been wanting an apple store to check out products
have an official place to get repairs done and more hopefully we'll see that sooner rather than
later with them expanding throughout the country apple is now allowing developers to advertise in
different ways to get their apps noticed on the app store so one of the ways is in the today view
you'll start to see different apps showing up here i don't think it'll look too much different than
it does now but you'll see different apps if they want to advertise here another way is maybe we go
into this app here star wars galaxy of heroes and if we go all the way to the bottom you'll
also start to see advertisements and you might also like so app developers can advertise here
this is good and bad as it could disadvantage those that don't have advertising revenue but
hopefully apple will continue to push little apps as well so that's something we could start seeing
soon or you may already start seeing in the app store a recent regulatory filing in canada which
has been removed has actually shown that they're approving afib history for watchos 9 in canada
afib history allows you to see how often you may have experienced atrial fibrillation and
keep track of it if you're over 22 years of age the feature is new in watchos 9 and will
be limited in different countries based on regulatory approval of that country
so in the health app you can see that information if you have it tracking your afib history however
i don't actually have that issue personally but if you do have that issue you can actually see that
tracked here under afib history so you can set that up and have it track that if you actually
are concerned about it now apple's yearly iphone introduction is just over a month away which is
unbelievable it's gone by so quickly to get to this point and sites are already predicting what
we will see we know we should have new iphones iphone 14 14 plus 14 pro and 14 pro max a new
apple watch series 8 airpods pro 2 potentially of course ios 16's launch date will be revealed then
and then also maybe a mac pro apple tv and ipads however i think with all of those products
expected i would expect a later event where maybe they'll show off apple ar vr headsets and in 2020
we actually had three events so we could have one two or three events however based on what we've
had in the past typically those fall on a tuesday and we could see that on the 13th last year it was
on the 14th which was a tuesday also so around the 13th is when i would expect that event
and then we'll learn when ios 16 will launch to everyone and then also of course those new iphones
usually later maybe a week or two later so that's typically what apple does we can expect that very
soon but it's unbelievable that it's already almost that time of year again now as far as
apps are concerned more people have been asking me to cover those and there's a couple things to
note twitter you'll see i have the icon which is actually black if you subscribe to twitter blue
you can switch that icon out however they've raised the price of twitter blue from 299 to
4.99 so i'll probably be canceling that and it's the first time they've done that also instagram
recently got an update where they changed the feed to be much more like tick-tock due to a lot of
complaints it looks like they've rolled that back and then finally if you use firefox on your mac
it now supports 120 hertz pro motion displays so if you have one of the macbook pro 14 or 16 inches
you should be able to take advantage of that feature last night the apple store went down
for a little bit and when it came back up they had expanded a deal they already had on apple tv and
that deal has to do with a 50 gift card that comes along with it so if you buy an apple tv 4k you can
now get a 50 apple gift card when you buy that apple tv they've expanded it to more countries
germany the uk france italy and more now also i want to go over deals as many of you have asked
me to cover that and if you don't want to buy it through apple you can get the apple tv 4k for 119
or 59 off on amazon as well so i'll link that in the description it's a an affiliate link you don't
have to click it you can search for it yourself if you don't want to contribute a little bit but it's
available for a little bit less money also the ipad air is a little bit off so if you've been
wanting a 5th generation ipad air it's 559 dollars the airpods pro are still 179 dollars so if you've
wanted a pair of airpods pro and don't care about airpods pro 2 if they launch in a month or two
you can pick those up for 179.99 now and probably the best deal is the apple watch series seven
for the aluminum or aluminium version this is actually the stainless steel but for the aluminum
version for the 45 millimeter it's 369 on amazon so that's a pretty good deal if you want to pick
one of those up again i'll link all of those in the description below now last week apple released
ios 16 beta 4 and public beta 2 and usually after beta 4 we switched to a weekly release schedule
so we could see beta 5 and public beta 3 as soon as tuesday or wednesday this week that's possible
although they could change it up and wait another two weeks so we could either see it this wednesday
or the following wednesday i would be surprised if they push it out every other week still though
also we may have an ios 15.7 beta or an ios 15.6.1 since that jailbreak is coming out or
did come out and is a sort of a security risk and apple tends to patch those pretty quickly so we
could see something like that as apple stopped signing ios 15.5 we may or may not see that but
usually every year by the end of august we have a final release of the previous version last year we
had ios 14.8 so we could see something like that very soon now apple's been working on m1 imax and
is still working on a larger imac according to mac rumors from a poster named amethyst who was the
first to report on the mac studio according to mac rumors apple has been working on them for a while
and prior to august 2021 they used the same design as the discontinued intel based 27-inch imac
then they worked on a second one that had the same design as the 24-inch imac but with a
27-inch display but an m1 chip and then the third one around november 2021 used the same design as
the 24 inch but had a 27 inch xdr display with a black finish and an m1 max chip that makes a lot
of sense and i would expect one hopefully by the end of this year also according to mark german an
updated mac pro was expected and was ready some time ago some months ago it was ready to ship
but apple decided to wait for the m2 extreme later this year since they pushed out the m2
with the macbook air so with the macbook air and 13 inch macbook pro we have m2 pushing out a mac
pro a top of the line with an m1 probably is a bad idea so they're probably waiting
the same user reported that the mac pro would have a 40 core cpu 32 performance cores 8 efficiency
cores and a 128 core gpu the prototype mac pro board is also said to include at least one pcie
x16 slot so it may have some expansion there we don't have with the current mac lineup now
with the iphone 14 just being about a month and a half away many people are wondering what features
it will have to set it apart from the 13. now the first thing is and i showed this earlier this week
with nine to five mac they discovered in ios 16 that the wallpapers appear to have an always on
display mode where they they're multi-layer vector wallpapers so if we press play here you can see it
sort of goes to an always-on display mode similar to that of the apple watch where it goes to sleep
dims a little bit and then is ready to go for that however this does not appear to be something that
will be coming to the iphone 13 series i think apple could do it but i think it's going to be
a 14 pro and pro max exclusive but we'll have to wait and see what they do hopefully that's
not the case but i do expect them to do that also according to shrimp apple pro on twitter
the upcoming iphone 14 models such as the 14 and 14 plus the larger size that we're expecting are
expected to have a15 cpus similar to that of the iphone 13 models however they are expected to get
a performance boost due to other things such as a cellular data improvement with cellular modems
a new internal design and different chipsets so we could see an improvement there it could be even
ram and more so despite it having an a15 it is still expected to be faster where the pro models
would have an a16 processor also ming chi quo has already stated that the iphone 14 production is
underway and apparently was having some issues with production of the rear camera lens cracking
so we're expecting a larger 48 megapixel camera and some of the lenses were apparently cracking
issues like this are fairly common early on in production and shouldn't affect overall production
according to quo so that's pretty typical they've run into issues correct those issues and then get
them ready with millions of them ready to go on launch day so we'll see all of that in just about
a month and a half and so that's everything this week for news tons of different things
big earnings for apple and of course those ios 16 updates probably coming very soon
let me know what you're most excited for in the comments below and do you think iphone 13
will get an always on display i'd love to hear from you in the comments below
