00:00:00,017 –> 00:00:04,537
Hello, everybody, and YouTube. Well, everybody and YouTube.
2
00:00:04,757 –> 00:00:08,217
Oh, that’s interesting. Welcome to another IACast episode.
3
00:00:08,880 –> 00:00:24,080
Music.
4
00:00:22,937 –> 00:00:28,157
Episode. All right, I’m Michael Doeys, and yet again, I’m here with Taylor Arndt.
5
00:00:28,297 –> 00:00:30,317
Feels like we just did this yesterday, Taylor.
6
00:00:31,377 –> 00:00:36,597
Yeah, I really think we did. I mean, gosh, today’s been a crazy
7
00:00:36,757 –> 00:00:40,177
day it has been non-stop and
8
00:00:40,177 –> 00:00:43,317
crazy action you michael maybe you should use that
9
00:00:43,317 –> 00:00:47,617
and youtube thing in your next podcast greeting because you always you know
10
00:00:47,617 –> 00:00:55,897
want to change it up yes that was a new accidental one so we’ll go with that
11
00:00:55,897 –> 00:01:03,217
so today was a very amazing event and pretty exciting Exciting stuff was announced, I think.
12
00:01:04,037 –> 00:01:10,897
Wouldn’t you say? I mean, was. Okay, so yesterday we did our podcast called It’s Pre-Glow Time.
13
00:01:11,357 –> 00:01:13,457
Today, it’s Post-Glow Time.
14
00:01:14,817 –> 00:01:18,577
And Apple had an event called It’s Glow Time.
15
00:01:19,137 –> 00:01:22,717
It did. I couldn’t find my mute button, so that was fun. Anyways.
16
00:01:22,937 –> 00:01:28,977
And Apple, do you know why it’s called Glow Time, Taylor? Is it because of the colors?
17
00:01:30,241 –> 00:01:36,041
It’s the colors of, you know, when you activate the new Siri, it glows.
18
00:01:36,161 –> 00:01:39,661
The rim of your phone glows. Oh, interesting.
19
00:01:40,401 –> 00:01:44,261
So that’s why it’s called it’s glow time because it uses a very similar animation.
20
00:01:44,561 –> 00:01:47,661
And they really did bring out the glow today.
21
00:01:48,941 –> 00:01:52,621
I’m pretty excited about this event. Oh, me too.
22
00:01:53,141 –> 00:01:56,801
So, Taylor, why were you excited? just as a we’ll go
23
00:01:56,801 –> 00:02:00,061
into all the details soon but why were
24
00:02:00,061 –> 00:02:02,901
you excited well y’all know my
25
00:02:02,901 –> 00:02:05,781
first thing ai a lot of
26
00:02:05,781 –> 00:02:11,301
ai today there’s also a new feature called visual intelligence where basically
27
00:02:11,301 –> 00:02:15,061
you could take a picture of something and it will tell you what it is like for
28
00:02:15,061 –> 00:02:18,841
example a restaurant menu right it could tell you you know all the different
29
00:02:18,841 –> 00:02:24,341
things about that or even like let’s say you have I don’t know, something you bought.
30
00:02:24,481 –> 00:02:27,981
I think they used a bike in the demo, right?
31
00:02:28,081 –> 00:02:31,521
But you’re like, oh, I want to see what this is. You could take a picture of
32
00:02:31,521 –> 00:02:32,941
it and then it would search the Google.
33
00:02:34,181 –> 00:02:41,461
Really? Search Google to find a suitable bike or item that you could buy.
34
00:02:41,521 –> 00:02:42,641
That’s the exact same thing.
35
00:02:42,941 –> 00:02:48,241
So a lot of different AI happening. And I love this. And a lot of it’s actually on your device.
36
00:02:48,841 –> 00:02:54,841
Of course, there’s other things too, mainly with like camera stuff.
37
00:02:54,981 –> 00:02:57,261
And now I want to talk about this for just a second, Michael.
38
00:02:57,321 –> 00:03:01,061
I don’t want to go on a huge tangent, but I’ve been seeing people in math and
39
00:03:01,061 –> 00:03:03,741
be like, oh, well, the camera stuff’s not very important to blind people.
40
00:03:03,981 –> 00:03:07,741
And sometimes it is. But the other thing that people have to realize is that
41
00:03:07,741 –> 00:03:11,901
a better camera means better scanning and OCR, optical character recognition
42
00:03:11,901 –> 00:03:13,101
for those who may not know.
43
00:03:13,341 –> 00:03:17,021
And that helps us to be able to recognize things better and maybe make the AI
44
00:03:17,021 –> 00:03:20,021
better for cameras Reservoir Register. I just want to put that PSA out there, folks.
45
00:03:21,203 –> 00:03:26,023
Yeah, so I guess to start us off, watches.
46
00:03:27,063 –> 00:03:34,943
Yes. So we got, really, we only got one new watch this time, right?
47
00:03:35,623 –> 00:03:43,543
We got the 10 in two different sizes. Yep. But we didn’t get an Ultra. We didn’t get an Ultra 3.
48
00:03:44,123 –> 00:03:49,003
That’s interesting because, like, I don’t know if the sources were incorrect
49
00:03:49,003 –> 00:03:50,063
on articles that I’ve read,
50
00:03:50,063 –> 00:03:53,623
but it basically said we got an ultra three so that’s very interesting folks
51
00:03:53,623 –> 00:03:59,663
no we did not get an ultra three we got an ultra two with a new color oh so
52
00:03:59,663 –> 00:04:01,183
that might be confusing for some,
53
00:04:01,903 –> 00:04:07,303
yeah so it’s the same watches last year but with a new black i think they’re
54
00:04:07,303 –> 00:04:13,203
calling it like a satin color finish so that’s that’s all we got that’s why
55
00:04:13,203 –> 00:04:16,783
why would they only do that because Because it’s a sports watch,
56
00:04:16,843 –> 00:04:18,403
it lasts a little longer,
57
00:04:18,623 –> 00:04:21,923
you know, it does a bit more than the other watches do.
58
00:04:23,043 –> 00:04:30,523
But I think the Apple Watch 10 looks really nice and it will do all the same features as before.
59
00:04:30,883 –> 00:04:37,963
We did not get word on the blood oxygen sensor, what’s going to happen with that.
60
00:04:38,303 –> 00:04:45,263
But we did find out that it does have sleep apnea detection with sensors, right? That is correct.
61
00:04:45,983 –> 00:04:49,623
There are new bands that you can look up and things like that,
62
00:04:49,783 –> 00:04:54,523
but new screens with new brightness.
63
00:04:55,143 –> 00:04:59,423
30% more than previous models with OLED.
64
00:05:00,103 –> 00:05:03,463
Yeah, and they look great. Very nice looking screens.
65
00:05:04,383 –> 00:05:07,823
And always on display with the one second refresh rate, if I remember correctly.
66
00:05:08,123 –> 00:05:11,443
Yeah, and that’s been the case on other watches, but I think they’re brighter.
67
00:05:11,443 –> 00:05:19,203
And okay now the interesting thing is the 10 does have an 18 hour battery life that they claim i i,
68
00:05:19,883 –> 00:05:25,423
want i think i want a 10 the problem is i’m so used to my ultras 36 hours of
69
00:05:25,423 –> 00:05:31,723
battery life i’m gonna miss that well i mean let’s break that down a little
70
00:05:31,723 –> 00:05:35,443
bit though because like i hate like sitting and you know charging stuff like
71
00:05:35,443 –> 00:05:39,643
it’s just annoying is the 10 worth it enough to
72
00:05:39,723 –> 00:05:43,903
do that because like you’re going from 18 to 36 that’s a half life and that
73
00:05:43,903 –> 00:05:50,363
18 is not even a full complaint complaint confirmed number yeah so i don’t know
74
00:05:50,363 –> 00:05:53,503
that i would even do that if i were you i understand you want the new features
75
00:05:53,503 –> 00:05:59,543
but is sacrificing battery life that worth it well and but that’s the question.
76
00:06:00,543 –> 00:06:04,803
You know, the funny thing is, I typically charge my watch every day if it can
77
00:06:04,803 –> 00:06:09,903
last that 24 hours, which my Series 7 used to do.
78
00:06:10,363 –> 00:06:15,283
Then that’s fine, and you can just put it on the charger for 30 minutes and you get 80% battery.
79
00:06:15,583 –> 00:06:19,283
So I’m wondering if that’s going to be enough for me, you know?
80
00:06:19,443 –> 00:06:22,343
I don’t know, Michael. Knowing you, I don’t know that it will be.
81
00:06:22,543 –> 00:06:28,223
Just being honest, like, I don’t… Yeah, I but I want the one of the cool features
82
00:06:28,223 –> 00:06:33,903
is the fact that the new watches will play audio out of the speaker in the music
83
00:06:33,903 –> 00:06:35,823
app and do a few things like that.
84
00:06:36,003 –> 00:06:40,723
We don’t know if that’s backwards ported on the new on the Ultra 2.
85
00:06:41,003 –> 00:06:44,763
The sleep apnea stuff is on the Ultra 2 and the 9.
86
00:06:45,343 –> 00:06:48,283
You wouldn’t just get an Ultra 2, would you? Would that be better?
87
00:06:48,623 –> 00:06:57,243
No, I don’t know that I would. I have an Ultra 1, and I like my Ultra 1, but it’s, I don’t know.
88
00:06:58,023 –> 00:07:01,983
It’s getting older, and there’s starting to be some things that the Ultra 2
89
00:07:01,983 –> 00:07:07,583
can do, and the Watch 10 can definitely do, that mine cannot do.
90
00:07:08,383 –> 00:07:12,243
So I think that I’m probably going to be upgrading.
91
00:07:13,103 –> 00:07:16,023
I just don’t know that a 10 is going to be enough for your battery life.
92
00:07:16,263 –> 00:07:19,763
That’s my only concern. And I don’t know. I don’t do a lot of work with my watch.
93
00:07:19,843 –> 00:07:23,763
I do a lot of workouts and fitness stuff mainly and notifications, so it might.
94
00:07:24,883 –> 00:07:29,303
But it just depends. So, you know, I mean, if I don’t like it,
95
00:07:29,343 –> 00:07:30,643
I could always send it back, you know?
96
00:07:30,703 –> 00:07:33,903
Yep. And get an Ultra or get some else. Yep.
97
00:07:35,863 –> 00:07:39,883
So, anything? I mean, I know that they have new watch faces, new watch bands.
98
00:07:41,243 –> 00:07:44,483
There’s the new Hermes Apple Watch Ultra bands. Yes.
99
00:07:45,636 –> 00:07:49,336
Did I miss anything that you mentioned in your article? I don’t think so.
100
00:07:49,376 –> 00:07:52,016
I don’t really have it open right now because I don’t want voiceover to come
101
00:07:52,016 –> 00:07:54,156
through the podcast. I’m just kind of doing everything from memory.
102
00:07:54,976 –> 00:08:01,356
So we know that it has additional, you know, the charging stuff that we mentioned,
103
00:08:01,436 –> 00:08:06,056
new screens, new rounded edges to make the screens bigger.
104
00:08:06,896 –> 00:08:10,076
And this is 10 years of Apple Watch, folks. It’s pretty exciting.
105
00:08:10,816 –> 00:08:14,756
Yes, it is 10 years of Apple Watch. So, yeah, very interesting.
106
00:08:14,756 –> 00:08:17,676
Thing i mean apple watches last a long
107
00:08:17,676 –> 00:08:20,416
time because remember when we were doing some stuff
108
00:08:20,416 –> 00:08:23,396
on discord or zoom one of our friends has series 2
109
00:08:23,396 –> 00:08:27,256
and it just gave out so like eight years i think it’s still running it’s just
110
00:08:27,256 –> 00:08:32,956
running very slow oh okay well yeah but i’m just saying like it can last a long
111
00:08:32,956 –> 00:08:39,416
time yes it can try to say apple watches can last a very long time so i don’t
112
00:08:39,416 –> 00:08:40,536
I don’t think I have anything else on my goal.
113
00:08:41,156 –> 00:08:45,196
Yeah, I mean, the watches are cool. They start at $399, I think.
114
00:08:45,936 –> 00:08:50,776
$399. The watch I won is $699, and the Ultra 2 is still $799.
115
00:08:52,036 –> 00:08:59,516
So, the Ultra 2 does not have the depth. The Watch 2 does not have.
116
00:08:59,816 –> 00:09:05,176
Let me start that. The Ultra 2 has the action button, whereas the other watches do not.
117
00:09:06,076 –> 00:09:10,596
But you want that, though, don’t you? Believe it or not, and it also has the
118
00:09:10,596 –> 00:09:13,856
advanced compass and GPS and all that stuff that is in the Ultra 2.
119
00:09:14,536 –> 00:09:18,476
Believe it or not, I have not used any of that stuff.
120
00:09:20,096 –> 00:09:25,916
Well, then yeah, go to a 10. I mean, the simpler, the cheaper, the better.
121
00:09:26,676 –> 00:09:30,496
Now, there’s not a new SE watch this year, is there? Not yet, no.
122
00:09:31,136 –> 00:09:35,696
Not yet, but there’s also, didn’t they upgrade from stainless steel to grade 5 titanium?
123
00:09:36,316 –> 00:09:42,316
Yeah, there is titanium, polished titanium, they say, on the new Apple Watch Series 10s.
124
00:09:42,716 –> 00:09:46,996
So I don’t know. We didn’t look to see if they have titanium and stainless steel.
125
00:09:47,216 –> 00:09:50,276
I imagine that they do because they have like 10 different colors.
126
00:09:52,536 –> 00:09:56,296
So, yeah, there’s still a lot to unpack from this.
127
00:09:57,616 –> 00:10:05,236
So let’s move on to AirPods. pods now Taylor with your situation with your ears
128
00:10:05,236 –> 00:10:10,156
did any of this interest you at all maybe a little bit just because like I love
129
00:10:10,156 –> 00:10:13,836
aftershocks but again you know I don’t know like.
130
00:10:16,190 –> 00:10:19,390
It’s kind of hard just because like i don’t know if they’ll fit and i don’t
131
00:10:19,390 –> 00:10:23,770
want the same thing that happened that you know earlier so i don’t know it’s
132
00:10:23,770 –> 00:10:26,210
gonna be kind of a maybe situation i,
133
00:10:26,730 –> 00:10:32,890
time will tell so they came out with airpods 4 and the airpods 4 with advanced
134
00:10:32,890 –> 00:10:38,630
noise cancellation they start at 129 i believe and 179 is the more expensive
135
00:10:38,630 –> 00:10:40,630
i picked up the anc versions
136
00:10:40,950 –> 00:10:47,710
the is it the 79 179 yeah it’s i guess advanced noise cancellation i think that’s
137
00:10:47,710 –> 00:10:51,850
what the a stands for yeah like what’s antsy yeah so you picked those up already
138
00:10:51,850 –> 00:10:55,530
were they already in pre-order yes they’re already up for pre-order so are the
139
00:10:55,530 –> 00:10:57,250
watches and they’ll be out on the 20th.
140
00:10:57,810 –> 00:11:00,510
Were the airpods it seems like they were
141
00:11:00,510 –> 00:11:03,170
cheaply priced or moderately priced is that right because that’s what
142
00:11:03,170 –> 00:11:06,010
i wrote well they’re moderately priced i mean
143
00:11:06,010 –> 00:11:08,950
there’s two levels of those you know i’m really
144
00:11:08,950 –> 00:11:11,630
excited about the the anc because they also have
145
00:11:11,630 –> 00:11:15,150
transparency and and with an open ear design no ear
146
00:11:15,150 –> 00:11:18,890
tips that’s kind of exciting to me yeah it
147
00:11:18,890 –> 00:11:21,990
is and i mean how are they going to fit all those different kinds
148
00:11:21,990 –> 00:11:25,210
of like small ear bigger ears i know they did the ml where
149
00:11:25,210 –> 00:11:28,310
they took a bunch of samples and things but time will
150
00:11:28,310 –> 00:11:31,150
tell folks but i did not like your
151
00:11:31,150 –> 00:11:34,870
tips because they fall off and they you know roll over well
152
00:11:34,870 –> 00:11:37,770
and these can still fall out of your ear these are more like the ear pods
153
00:11:37,770 –> 00:11:41,310
yeah i’m not sure which there
154
00:11:41,310 –> 00:11:44,090
was a rumor that they’d be no longer selling those and they
155
00:11:44,090 –> 00:11:47,510
still are so i’m happy to see that i know
156
00:11:47,510 –> 00:11:51,050
a couple of my friends would you know purchase like a whole bunch of them at
157
00:11:51,050 –> 00:11:54,910
once make sure they have those because they’re pretty valuable me personally
158
00:11:54,910 –> 00:12:04,210
i’m not really a fan so we have the we have the air AirPods Pro 4 and the 4 with ANC.
159
00:12:04,370 –> 00:12:07,310
We also got updates to the AirPods Pro.
160
00:12:07,970 –> 00:12:11,570
And that’s kind of exciting because they added a bunch of hearing features.
161
00:12:12,550 –> 00:12:17,670
With a hearing test. That’s really cool. A clinical hearing test.
162
00:12:18,470 –> 00:12:22,230
And a few other hearing features. But I think the coolest thing that they added
163
00:12:22,230 –> 00:12:28,270
was the hearing aid features that’s coming out later this year.
164
00:12:28,270 –> 00:12:30,570
That will make the AirPods into a hearing aid.
165
00:12:32,370 –> 00:12:36,790
So, does that mean the hearing aid business has been basically disrupted?
166
00:12:37,966 –> 00:12:43,006
Pretty much, because the neat thing about these is they’re headphones.
167
00:12:44,106 –> 00:12:47,846
So instead of it looking weird to have a hearing aid in your ear,
168
00:12:47,966 –> 00:12:50,366
they’re more accepted because, like, oh, well, everybody’s wearing headphones,
169
00:12:50,526 –> 00:12:51,566
so I can just wear my AirPods.
170
00:12:52,126 –> 00:12:55,826
And your hearing aid profiles on your AirPods Pro, too.
171
00:12:56,566 –> 00:13:02,506
Won’t your health out? No. What will happen is you could use those for audio on your phone.
172
00:13:02,986 –> 00:13:06,466
So they can enhance the audio on your phone based on your hearing aid profile.
173
00:13:06,466 –> 00:13:09,386
File that i think is one of the coolest
174
00:13:09,386 –> 00:13:12,586
features yes and the clinical health your
175
00:13:12,586 –> 00:13:15,666
test will go into your health app yes that will yep yep
176
00:13:15,666 –> 00:13:21,366
i like that and i also like the noise isolation see some of these things i don’t
177
00:13:21,366 –> 00:13:24,286
know like i’m just so torn because remember michael that feature where that
178
00:13:24,286 –> 00:13:29,446
the people are in a noisy environment and it got rid all that noise yes that’s
179
00:13:29,446 –> 00:13:32,926
and they’ve been They’ve been doing some of that already, but…
180
00:13:32,926 –> 00:13:35,646
That’s only on the Pros, right? Yes.
181
00:13:36,586 –> 00:13:40,866
Yeah, I don’t know. Because the Pros, I can’t do it. I’m pretty sure it’s only on the Pros.
182
00:13:41,746 –> 00:13:46,506
I’ll have to look. I’ll go look and I’ll give you guys more information once I figure that out.
183
00:13:47,226 –> 00:13:49,786
Yeah, there’s still a lot of information unpacked from this.
184
00:13:50,626 –> 00:13:55,726
And then we got the AirPods Max update that we’ve been waiting for forever.
185
00:13:56,646 –> 00:14:00,186
Yeah. And it looks like the only thing they did was USB-C.
186
00:14:00,666 –> 00:14:05,866
But you don’t know. We even really looked on Apple’s website and we can’t find
187
00:14:05,866 –> 00:14:08,066
it. I don’t feel like they’re prioritized.
188
00:14:09,446 –> 00:14:13,926
I know. I don’t feel like they’re prioritized as much as they used to be.
189
00:14:14,066 –> 00:14:16,486
Man, I don’t like Airpods Max.
190
00:14:16,666 –> 00:14:20,846
The only reason I don’t like them is because they were not reliable at all.
191
00:14:21,386 –> 00:14:24,566
You know, I had to send them into repair for like two or three times.
192
00:14:24,966 –> 00:14:27,466
And I finally I’m just like I’m not dealing with this anymore,
193
00:14:28,820 –> 00:14:33,320
Because they just kept rebooting themselves and things like that. Yep.
194
00:14:35,040 –> 00:14:41,640
So, the next thing, and the AirPods Max are still $450. $450?
195
00:14:42,920 –> 00:14:47,500
$550. $550. Sorry about that. Yeah. I was like, oh, man. Maybe that was me wishing.
196
00:14:48,580 –> 00:14:52,040
Yeah. Wishful thinking, Michael. Yeah. I wish.
197
00:14:52,500 –> 00:14:56,260
I know. That would make it very nice. For that price, you could probably get
198
00:14:56,260 –> 00:14:58,220
Beats, but not AirPods Max.
199
00:14:58,220 –> 00:15:01,800
Right so i mean they’re
200
00:15:01,800 –> 00:15:05,080
good headphones guys i would i probably will buy another pair eventually
201
00:15:05,080 –> 00:15:09,860
eventually yeah would not be on my priority list i mean i might give them another
202
00:15:09,860 –> 00:15:13,440
shot especially because they’re usbc i’m trying to get rid of lightning and
203
00:15:13,440 –> 00:15:18,980
frankly yeah i don’t like lightning my goal is to get rid of everything lightning
204
00:15:18,980 –> 00:15:24,740
me too okay so So iPhones,
205
00:15:25,140 –> 00:15:31,540
this is really where I think a lot of people are going to be excited. I’m excited. Me too.
206
00:15:32,520 –> 00:15:36,120
So we got new iPhones with several different colors.
207
00:15:37,540 –> 00:15:41,480
And, oh, two things I want to go back to, Apple Watch.
208
00:15:41,680 –> 00:15:46,600
The new watches have translation from one language to another built in now on the new models.
209
00:15:47,060 –> 00:15:53,440
So that’s important to note. and the AirPods now have where you can shake your
210
00:15:53,440 –> 00:15:56,860
head yes or no to answer or end calls. Very important.
211
00:15:57,520 –> 00:16:02,180
And this is on the AirPods 4. I think the Pros already have this,
212
00:16:02,780 –> 00:16:06,280
which might be why I’ve answered and hung up on calls without knowing,
213
00:16:06,360 –> 00:16:08,640
you know, I had AirPods Pro.
214
00:16:08,980 –> 00:16:12,320
Because I wear those all the time and didn’t know that that feature was even there.
215
00:16:12,800 –> 00:16:15,660
Well, do they just do automatic firmware updates or how does that work?
216
00:16:15,940 –> 00:16:17,920
You know, yeah, they do. They do.
217
00:16:19,100 –> 00:16:27,640
So then we have the phones. We have the iPhone 16 and 16 plus pro and pro max.
218
00:16:28,220 –> 00:16:32,040
The 16 has a new a 18 chip in it.
219
00:16:32,100 –> 00:16:36,780
And I’m really happy to see guys that Apple is back on the track of,
220
00:16:36,880 –> 00:16:41,640
it’s not using the a 17 pro last year.
221
00:16:42,060 –> 00:16:47,960
And then the pros using the a 18 they’re back on the, the a 18 is in the.
222
00:16:49,769 –> 00:16:54,629
In the regular phones, in the A18 Pro is in the Pro and Pro Max phones.
223
00:16:55,809 –> 00:17:05,149
And the iPhone 16 has some very cool colors like teal, aquamarine,
224
00:17:05,149 –> 00:17:08,149
and I think there’s a white, a black.
225
00:17:09,029 –> 00:17:13,329
Yeah, I think those are the colors. Jet black? Jet black. Yeah.
226
00:17:13,809 –> 00:17:16,249
Well, it’s jet black on the watch. I think that was on the watch.
227
00:17:16,749 –> 00:17:19,869
Oh, I thought there was both. I don’t know. Like I said, I don’t have my notes in front of me.
228
00:17:19,929 –> 00:17:24,409
And then the camera bump on this phone is only two cameras, but it looks like
229
00:17:24,409 –> 00:17:25,889
the iPhone X’s camera bump.
230
00:17:25,989 –> 00:17:30,209
I really like it. It looks really cool. I like smaller camera bumps.
231
00:17:30,909 –> 00:17:33,769
They’re kind of going back to the iPhone X days, huh? Mm-hmm.
232
00:17:34,509 –> 00:17:40,829
And I like the, this one has the action button, just like the 15 Pros did.
233
00:17:41,249 –> 00:17:47,509
And it now has a better ceramic shield screen and other things like that.
234
00:17:47,509 –> 00:17:51,989
And it also has a new button called camera control we’ll get into camera control in just a bit,
235
00:17:52,489 –> 00:18:00,369
it has usb charging usbc charging with usb2 which is still perplexing why they’re
236
00:18:00,369 –> 00:18:09,209
using two and not three on all their phones oh yeah and yeah the the blue colors
237
00:18:09,209 –> 00:18:10,649
are very nice on these phones i will
238
00:18:10,689 –> 00:18:13,449
say they have ray tracing they
239
00:18:13,449 –> 00:18:16,609
have a lot of features on the baseline phones
240
00:18:16,609 –> 00:18:19,309
at $799 that are pretty nice for a
241
00:18:19,309 –> 00:18:22,849
phone man i you know
242
00:18:22,849 –> 00:18:26,589
for a while in that apple event i’m like oh i have to upgrade you a pro this
243
00:18:26,589 –> 00:18:30,889
year pro you know it’s like but then of course the lidar the lidar thing is
244
00:18:30,889 –> 00:18:35,569
kind of difficult because like you know i don’t know like the lidar is important
245
00:18:35,569 –> 00:18:40,369
but who knows what What are your thoughts, Michael, or do you have anything else to say?
246
00:18:40,869 –> 00:18:46,009
Well, on those phones, that’s about it. But I almost went for,
247
00:18:46,129 –> 00:18:50,369
I almost was convinced on the 16 lineup because it has so many great features
248
00:18:50,369 –> 00:18:51,729
and it’s cheaper. Me too.
249
00:18:52,149 –> 00:18:55,289
That’s what I was going to say. I almost was like, hmm, I could just spend,
250
00:18:55,389 –> 00:18:58,289
you know, a lot less money, but I’m like, oh, crap.
251
00:18:59,049 –> 00:19:04,029
But the Pros, so the Pros are very different this year.
252
00:19:04,109 –> 00:19:09,229
They do not have a blue phone. they have a like a like a slate it’s like a black
253
00:19:09,229 –> 00:19:16,249
they have a natural titanium they have a.
254
00:19:17,069 –> 00:19:24,069
White which is the color that michael is going to go for and they have a desert
255
00:19:24,069 –> 00:19:31,829
color that’s kind of like a gold sand kind of color not a fan personally but
256
00:19:31,829 –> 00:19:36,149
i haven’t been been able to see it so I’d have to like go in the store and look at it,
257
00:19:37,229 –> 00:19:40,409
But I like, and I don’t think, guys, we’re going to see a big,
258
00:19:40,489 –> 00:19:43,249
I mean, I could be wrong, but I don’t think we’re going to see as big of a pre-order
259
00:19:43,249 –> 00:19:46,969
season this year because much of the features, like all the AI stuff they’re
260
00:19:46,969 –> 00:19:50,589
talking about, Apple intelligence and everything is not coming till October.
261
00:19:51,469 –> 00:19:55,609
See, that’s part of my dilemma is, of course, my charging port is out.
262
00:19:56,569 –> 00:20:01,049
So, you know, I’d like, I have to wireless charge, which isn’t a huge deal except when I’m developing.
263
00:20:01,429 –> 00:20:05,449
But it’s like, man, do I wait till October to upgrade or, well, I don’t know.
264
00:20:06,149 –> 00:20:08,389
What are your thoughts, Michael?
265
00:20:09,289 –> 00:20:13,389
Yeah, I think it’s worth it.
266
00:20:13,609 –> 00:20:17,809
Well, I try to upgrade as soon as I can because the iPhone is so powerful.
267
00:20:17,929 –> 00:20:21,429
You can do so much with it. It’s like your main computer when you’re not at
268
00:20:21,429 –> 00:20:23,709
your computer, right? Yep, I agree.
269
00:20:24,749 –> 00:20:28,629
I’m a huge iPhone fan, and I’m going to be very curious what these studio mics
270
00:20:28,629 –> 00:20:34,089
will allow us to do, especially on VOIP apps like Discord or others.
271
00:20:34,089 –> 00:20:37,069
And they showed off a feature at the event where
272
00:20:37,069 –> 00:20:39,909
somebody could play a
273
00:20:39,909 –> 00:20:43,489
track out the speakers and voice memos would allow them to record their voice
274
00:20:43,489 –> 00:20:48,749
over it and they can lay the two tracks on each other and it would sound natural
275
00:20:48,749 –> 00:20:54,629
that is kind of amazing stuff yeah so i’m sure for the acb karaoke when people
276
00:20:54,629 –> 00:20:57,469
have to do their tracks every week i’m sure they will love that feature Yeah.
277
00:20:57,949 –> 00:21:03,709
And then they talked about doing like spatial video where you would have the
278
00:21:03,709 –> 00:21:05,329
spatial audio in the video.
279
00:21:05,549 –> 00:21:07,609
So that’s binaural audio.
280
00:21:08,289 –> 00:21:11,529
Really? Yes. So you don’t need those ambios.
281
00:21:11,809 –> 00:21:18,069
So a lot of things that, you know, we’ve wanted in an iPhone we can do now with audio.
282
00:21:18,909 –> 00:21:23,729
That is really, really amazing. You know, and I really like that they focus
283
00:21:23,729 –> 00:21:27,089
a lot on audio and cameras. It wasn’t just camera, camera, camera.
284
00:21:27,229 –> 00:21:31,409
Again, I wouldn’t mind that because that would help make our OCR better.
285
00:21:31,669 –> 00:21:35,209
But it’s always great when they focus on the audio and other sides as well.
286
00:21:36,266 –> 00:21:42,586
Yeah, and they did talk about 4K 120 hertz recording, which is absolutely crazy
287
00:21:42,586 –> 00:21:45,866
for video recording. So I’m very excited about that.
288
00:21:46,526 –> 00:21:51,766
And I mean, so much better for Apple intelligence. I think every phone this
289
00:21:51,766 –> 00:21:53,946
year is getting Apple intelligence, which is incredible.
290
00:21:54,326 –> 00:21:59,626
And that is my favorite feature. I just upgraded my Mac to the beta because
291
00:21:59,626 –> 00:22:01,626
my current phone, I can’t do Apple intelligence.
292
00:22:01,626 –> 00:22:04,286
But hopefully i you know
293
00:22:04,286 –> 00:22:07,406
so far my mac hasn’t decided and we’re going to just upgrade to
294
00:22:07,406 –> 00:22:10,326
the new beta so that’s good because it would have just shut down
295
00:22:10,326 –> 00:22:13,466
that would not have been good for podcasting but man i’m excited
296
00:22:13,466 –> 00:22:16,706
to play with apple intelligence this is my first time playing with it yep i’ve
297
00:22:16,706 –> 00:22:19,546
mainly written about it as well summaries and writing
298
00:22:19,546 –> 00:22:22,426
tools are what i’ve used mainly but yeah it’s
299
00:22:22,426 –> 00:22:25,426
going to be pretty cool yes and you can audio record
300
00:22:25,426 –> 00:22:28,126
notes then we’ll transcribe it and make summaries out of
301
00:22:28,126 –> 00:22:30,926
it that’s a game changer for me
302
00:22:30,926 –> 00:22:35,186
a lot of great features so the pro
303
00:22:35,186 –> 00:22:39,766
models they start at 9.99 they go to 11.99 for
304
00:22:39,766 –> 00:22:50,586
the bigger model the pro max the lineup up is 6.1 and 6.7 inch for the 16 and
305
00:22:50,586 –> 00:22:56,706
16 plus 6.3 and 6.9 inches for the pro and pro max,
306
00:22:57,926 –> 00:23:02,026
wow yeah i’m glad you remembered those numbers because i had them reversed.
307
00:23:03,286 –> 00:23:12,966
Then the pro max is slated for a 33 hour battery life oh it’s almost three days No, not quite.
308
00:23:13,526 –> 00:23:16,046
That’s a day and a half. I don’t know how to math.
309
00:23:17,646 –> 00:23:19,406
And then we have…
310
00:23:20,908 –> 00:23:25,008
The action button just as normal, but we also have the camera control button,
311
00:23:25,188 –> 00:23:30,688
which will let us do visual intelligence, which will let you point at something,
312
00:23:30,788 –> 00:23:34,208
hold the button down and get more information about what you’re looking at.
313
00:23:34,948 –> 00:23:40,348
I’m very excited about this. I think this is going to on device kind of challenge
314
00:23:40,348 –> 00:23:41,768
what the meta Ray-Bans do.
315
00:23:41,948 –> 00:23:46,888
But I mean, the Ray-Bans will still have a place because they’re on your face, their glasses. Right.
316
00:23:47,748 –> 00:23:51,468
So more options is better. Right. more
317
00:23:51,468 –> 00:23:54,208
options is always better and we’re going to have so
318
00:23:54,208 –> 00:23:56,828
much choice it’s going to be
319
00:23:56,828 –> 00:24:00,768
an incredible and and you’ll be able to have apps so
320
00:24:00,768 –> 00:24:07,328
you know ira or be my eyes can tap into that with their ai wait really yeah
321
00:24:07,328 –> 00:24:13,288
does it mean like techopolis my app can tap into it absolutely it’s amazing
322
00:24:13,288 –> 00:24:18,848
i did not know that i could tap into that as a developer yep they said that during the event,
323
00:24:19,368 –> 00:24:22,928
Well, it looks like my prospective AI vision is going to be on hold for now
324
00:24:22,928 –> 00:24:24,888
until I can get a 16 and make it better.
325
00:24:25,568 –> 00:24:35,768
Yeah, in a few weeks. So a lot of new features, a lot of great changes coming to these lines.
326
00:24:35,868 –> 00:24:40,928
Again, I’m getting the white, probably 512. 512 is going to be great on a phone.
327
00:24:42,487 –> 00:24:46,967
You can take those spatial videos. You can even take spatial videos on the 16.
328
00:24:47,167 –> 00:24:49,567
That’s why I was first like, hmm, do I need a pro?
329
00:24:50,127 –> 00:24:54,527
But with all the studio mics and recording and all that kind of stuff, oh, yeah.
330
00:24:55,167 –> 00:24:59,567
Oh, yeah. It’s like a little mini recording studio in your pocket.
331
00:25:00,227 –> 00:25:03,907
But if you think about it, we have Zoom devices that can do that,
332
00:25:03,987 –> 00:25:07,667
like the Zoom H4E and all those that we just bought.
333
00:25:08,207 –> 00:25:13,187
We’re starting to get that kind of stuff in our phones, where you can like move
334
00:25:13,187 –> 00:25:15,127
subjects around in audio.
335
00:25:15,667 –> 00:25:19,287
And I think that that’s where we’re going with this AI stuff.
336
00:25:19,467 –> 00:25:25,287
So I think it’s going to be just incredible to see what happens, right? Stay tuned.
337
00:25:26,447 –> 00:25:30,867
So Taylor, what was your takeaways from the event? What really got you excited?
338
00:25:31,747 –> 00:25:34,307
Visual intelligence by a long shot.
339
00:25:35,187 –> 00:25:40,427
Can you explain why? Because if I can be able to, well, for one,
340
00:25:40,647 –> 00:25:43,527
tap into it as a developer and make my app even better than
341
00:25:43,527 –> 00:25:46,187
it currently is probably have to rewrite it but that’s a
342
00:25:46,187 –> 00:25:50,947
whole other story the fact that i could just hit a button and be able to get
343
00:25:50,947 –> 00:25:56,027
information about things around me is incredible i mean yes i’m a meta rebrand
344
00:25:56,027 –> 00:26:01,067
but combining the two like combining my meta rebrand and the phone like for
345
00:26:01,067 –> 00:26:05,527
more precise finding is absolutely a game changer.
346
00:26:07,367 –> 00:26:12,907
Yep. So, is there a device that has you more interested?
347
00:26:13,067 –> 00:26:16,467
Watch, AirPods, or phones? Phone, by long shot.
348
00:26:17,507 –> 00:26:22,107
And what phone are you going to get, do you think? The Kings Pro. What color?
349
00:26:22,747 –> 00:26:27,527
I have not decided. Okay. Well, awesome.
350
00:26:27,707 –> 00:26:30,907
I think that that’s kind of the highlights of everything today.
351
00:26:32,567 –> 00:26:36,547
They They went over all the software and things like that that you’ll find on these new phones.
352
00:26:36,927 –> 00:26:42,707
IOS 18 drops next Monday, so does macOS and iPadOS and VisionOS and all the
353
00:26:42,707 –> 00:26:45,107
things. So it’s all pretty exciting.
354
00:26:45,787 –> 00:26:49,547
I’m sorry. So stay tuned for more IA coverage of all those. Yeah,
355
00:26:49,567 –> 00:26:51,587
we’ll come out with more coverage on these things.
356
00:26:51,707 –> 00:26:55,867
And other blindness podcasts have done a really good job showcasing this stuff. off.
357
00:26:56,487 –> 00:27:04,507
So I accessibility has some really exciting news to present to everybody.
358
00:27:04,887 –> 00:27:08,047
And we’re going to use this podcast as our way to do that.
359
00:27:08,167 –> 00:27:14,607
The website is officially online and launched. I accessibility.net is completely usable and online.
360
00:27:14,787 –> 00:27:19,307
We have our forums up and I accessibility.net you can click forums or go to

365
00:27:37,336 –> 00:27:41,536
it again you’ll see ia forums right on your home screen so it’s really exciting
366
00:27:41,536 –> 00:27:48,156
to see that and then our website is up with all of our podcast episodes there I
367
00:27:48,456 –> 00:27:54,636
cast net goes to I accessibility net and you can still use our links like I
368
00:27:54,636 –> 00:27:59,956
iAccessibility.net slash listen and iAccess.net slash listen for iAccess Radio.
369
00:28:00,476 –> 00:28:03,536
You’ll find us on YouTube, all of our social media channels.
370
00:28:03,736 –> 00:28:08,156
But also, we have our app directory. It is online.
371
00:28:08,476 –> 00:28:11,576
You can search through it. You can submit apps.
372
00:28:11,896 –> 00:28:16,536
You can even submit blog posts. And soon, we’ll even have the ability to submit resources.
373
00:28:17,736 –> 00:28:21,956
IAccessibility wants to be your one-stop place to find all the resources and
374
00:28:21,956 –> 00:28:26,456
discussions you want to have with other users using the same things.
375
00:28:26,616 –> 00:28:31,256
And the cool thing is we have a low, like we cater to low vision as well.
376
00:28:31,376 –> 00:28:36,556
So we try to add graphics and of course alt text and make this website be very
377
00:28:36,556 –> 00:28:42,736
useful for everybody, whether you’re totally blind, legally blind, sighted, anything.
378
00:28:42,856 –> 00:28:46,116
If you want to find what’s accessible and what’s not, what’s usable, what’s not,

406
00:31:07,985 –> 00:31:13,865
and we’re so glad that ComTechUSA is there with us as we get things started.
407
00:31:14,665 –> 00:31:16,585
Absolutely. Couldn’t be more thankful.
408
00:31:17,825 –> 00:31:21,685
Yep. All right. Well, that’s going to do it for this episode.
409
00:31:21,905 –> 00:31:25,745
I think we’ve covered the basics of everything. If you want to learn more,
410
00:31:25,805 –> 00:31:29,405
go watch the Apple event. It was very informative and very good.
411
00:31:29,605 –> 00:31:31,845
It was one of my favorite Apple events, wouldn’t you say, Taylor?
412
00:31:32,285 –> 00:31:35,405
Yeah, Michael. Actually, one more thing that we forgot to mention.
413
00:31:35,405 –> 00:31:38,145
So at the beginning of
414
00:31:38,145 –> 00:31:40,985
the event did you notice that there’s a lot of
415
00:31:40,985 –> 00:31:43,985
accessibility focus like they had all these different people
416
00:31:43,985 –> 00:31:47,565
with disabilities doing different things and it was a lot of representation
417
00:31:47,565 –> 00:31:51,645
so that’s really good i know apple’s been doing this in the past but it’s always
418
00:31:51,645 –> 00:31:55,705
great to see a company that does the representation and of course you can’t
419
00:31:55,705 –> 00:32:00,285
forget about the audio description yes awesome as well and that was even on
420
00:32:00,285 –> 00:32:02,985
the safari web page for the the Apple event,
421
00:32:03,125 –> 00:32:06,945
not in the, not just in the TV app, but in the web page.
422
00:32:07,045 –> 00:32:09,125
So well done, Apple.
423
00:32:09,405 –> 00:32:16,765
Great event. You guys are, you know, why I love your events are one of the reasons
424
00:32:16,765 –> 00:32:17,705
why I love your products.
425
00:32:18,845 –> 00:32:25,645
Yeah. And there’s so many things I could say, you know, towards all of that. So I just want to…
426
00:32:27,508 –> 00:32:30,448
We’ve helped build Apple. Apple has helped build us.
427
00:32:30,988 –> 00:32:34,868
And I think that we need to recognize, you know, they, they have done a lot
428
00:32:34,868 –> 00:32:38,768
for our community and, and we’ve done a lot for them.
429
00:32:38,888 –> 00:32:45,248
So let’s keep on keeping on and, and really bring out the most of what we can
430
00:32:45,248 –> 00:32:48,008
do with our lives, with our products that we buy from Apple.
431
00:32:48,448 –> 00:32:53,948
And, you know, we have wonderful folks like Gabe and contact ComTech USA to
432
00:32:53,948 –> 00:32:57,768
train everybody on all of that. So it’s really exciting.
433
00:32:57,988 –> 00:33:00,848
We’re entering a new, you know, it’s funny.
434
00:33:00,988 –> 00:33:05,588
We’ve been talking about eras a lot and iAccessibility is in a new era and Apple
435
00:33:05,588 –> 00:33:07,468
just said this is a new era for iPhone.
436
00:33:09,168 –> 00:33:15,548
So let’s bring it. Let’s go and change the world with all this stuff and provide
437
00:33:15,548 –> 00:33:16,748
a resource, conversations,
438
00:33:17,008 –> 00:33:25,308
and all of those wonderful things that we need as users that use the iPhone accessibly.
439
00:33:25,868 –> 00:33:30,968
Michael, one more thing. Remember the iAccessibility Report is now in podcast form?
440
00:33:31,548 –> 00:33:34,828
Yes, we do have a podcast for the iAccessibility Report.
