Withthe rumored Sep 10th Apple keynotejust weeks away,the gossip indentisin tall riggingand,as per usual, expectationswillbe mountainous aloftthaneverasthe date nears.Forsome products, the moderniseor passisallbut confirmed.For others,thereonly exists conjectureor tiny sad meditativefor even the pleadatthe keynote. Belowyou'll findthe opinionsofsome 9to5Mac staffers.
Mark Gurman:
Ithinkthe Sep 10th eventualitywillbean iPhoneand the program event.At WWDC, Apple setthe theatrefor multiform vital program launchesto startthis fall,butdidnot share last sumor specific launch information.The association voiced iOS 7, OS X Mavericks, iWorkfor iCloud,and voiced (butdidnot demo)allnew releasesof iWorkfor Macand iOS. youthinkthe initialpartofthe eventualitywill plead software,whilethe second halfofthe eventualitywill speak iPhone hardware.
Iwouldnotbe astoundedto see Apple Senior VPof Software Craig Federighi re-cap mostofthe vitalnew facilitiesof iOS 7.With iOS 7 together withanall-new design,itwillbeimportantfor Appleto speakthe changesin the non-developer-focused sourroundings (like WWDC). Apple,inthe past,has re-discussedits vital iOS updatesat iPhone hardware events.
Iwouldalso pattern Appleto make known the grave launch datefor iOS 7 duringthisportionofthe keynote.With Apple focusingon iPhone iOS 7 growth prior toto WWDCand most beta users observantthatthe iPhone chronicleis some-more fastthanthe iPad version, youwouldnotbe astoundedto seean iOS 7for iPhone/iPod hold launchin mid-Septemberandan iPad iOS 7 recoverin Oct to the singular sidethenew iPad 5and iPad mini(s?).
After iOS 7, youthink Applewill speakaboutitsother vital handling complement recoverthis year: Mavericks.With OS X Mavericks together with most facilitiesthat work hand-in-handwith iOS, youwould pattern Federighito make known the launch datefor Mavericksthatis inside ofthe twin week durationinwhichthe iOS 7 recoverwill occur.With OS X Mountain Lion, Applehadsome warn facilities upits sleevefor launch (Dictation, PowerNap, etc),butwith Apple putting the lotof courtesyon iOSthis year, you wouldn'tbe astoundedto seethe Mavericks facilitiesthat debutedat WWDC beingthe wholeofwhat'sin storeforthe Mac OSthis year.
To turn outthe program discussion, youwould supposethat Apple VPof Productivity Software Roger Rosnerwill give thequick general outlookof iWorkfor iCloudand make known the recover date (perhaps eventhe eventuality dateorin-linewith Mavericksand iOS 7). Ithink Rosnerwillalso give thequick proofofthenew OS Xand iOS iWork apps, alongwith the recover datein-linewith iWorkfor iCloud, iOS 7,and Mavericks.The eventualitywouldalsobe the undiluted venueto maybe make knownthat iWorkis right away giveaway (like iLifeon OS X).
Asfor Mac hardware, Applehas Haswell MacBook Pros, Mac minis,and iMacsinthe pipeline,but youthink thosecouldbe simply savedforthe Oct eventuality (likein 2012when Apple talked Macsand iPadatits Oct keynote). Mac Pro tech specs, pricing,and launch monthcouldalsobe savedfor Octor evenan Apple.com press release.
Onto iPhone hardware, youthinkmostofthe gibberish commonso distantiscorrect: Applewill launchan iPhone 5Sand the plastic, lower-cost iPhonethat comesin assorted colors.Like past"S" phone upgrades, youam awaitingthe same patternasthe prior iPhone (iPhone 5inthis case), alongwith vital enhancementstothe cameraand voice capabilities. I'm meditativethatthe iPhone 5S camera specswillbein-linewiththe iPhone 5: Perhaps around 8 megapixels. Applehas invariablysaidthat megapixels don't matter,so you don'tthink Applewouldhavesaidthat inside ofthe past couple of monthsfor nothing.What youdothinkwill detachedthe iPhone 5S camera detachedisthe software-perhaps theslow-motion mode-and the twin LED peepfor softened low-light pictures.
In conditionsof voice, youwouldnotbe astoundedto seethe iPhone 5S benefitsomeon-board voice parsing capabilities ? la Android. you don'tthink Siriis readyforon-board estimate (this year),but I'dsay Local Dictationmakes clarityforthe 5S.
Manyare awaitingthenew iPhoneto sport the biometric fingerprint sensor. Basedon SDK evidence, Apple'spurchaseof Authentec last year,andother variables, I'dsaythatthisislikely.Theonly thing landme behindfrom meditativethisis the 100% faithisthe comprehensive missof supply-chain justificationfor the fingerprint sensor.If Appleis producing tensof millionsof fingerprint sensor versed Home buttons,why hasn't the singular square leaked? Plastic iPhone shellsinevery singular color, iPhone 5S behind platesand camerapartshave leakedbythe dozen.Then again,the iPad mini hardly leakedin conditionsof hardwareparts,sowe never knowfor certain formedonthis.
Fromwhat youcould glean,ifthenew iPhonedoes embody the fingerprint sensor, I'dsaywith nearby faiththatitwouldbe to the single sidefor unlockingthe phone. Perhaps evenas the passagefor unlockingthenew iOS 7 iCloud Keychain feature. Appleis the hardware + program + services company,and fingerprint sensor formationintothat (well-timed) underlinewouldbe sensible. you rarely disbeliefthat fingerprint sensor recordhas reached the turnof trustworthinesstobe befittingfor conducting payments. youalso don'tthink Appleis readyto launch the payments usethis year. youthinkthatcouldbe the long-term planof sort,but zero befittingfor 2013.
Asforthe cosmetic iPhone, youthinkthat Applewill glowfor pricing underneath $ 350 sans contract.With contract, I'dsayeither free, $ 49,or $ 99.To embankment iPhones but Lightningand 4-inch screens, I'm meditativethe iPhone 4Sand iPhone 4are outofthe line-up.Withthe iPhone 5S being identicaltothe iPhone 5,andfor margins sake, I'd evengoas distantastosaythat youthinkthe iPhone 5might evenbe finished come subsequent month. Perhapsthe 2013 iPhone lineupwillbethe iPhone 5Sandwhatsomeare jobthe"iPhone 5C." you wouldn'tbe astoundedto seethe"iPhone 5C" comein the singularor twin storage genius optionsatmost (perhaps 8GBand 16GB),and 3forthe iPhone 5S: 32GB, 64GB,and 128GB.Forevery"S" iPhone launch, Applehas doubledthe iPhone storage capacities,and Apple's launchof the 128GB iPad progressingthis yearshouldonly supplementsome some-more fumetothat possibility.
Ben Lovejoy:
The concentrationofthe eventuality beingthe iPhone 5S seemsas nearbycertainascanbe,with the 95 percent oddsof the fingerprint sensorasthe pass differentiating hardware underline- yet youtoodefinitely pattern the lotof concentrationon iOS 7.
Launchingthe iPhone 5Catthe same eventuality seems distant some-morelikelythannot, yet youdo consternationaboutthe naming.If Apple retainsthe existent iPhone 5,we'dthenhave the choicethat goes 5C, 5, 5S.That's the flattering treacherous nomenclatureforthe normal consumer (ie.the oneswho don't cling to out here), generallyfor the associationthat prides itselfon usability. youthinkwemight see the opposite nameforeitherthe 5Cor 5S.There's thesmallprobabilitythe emanatecouldbe avoidedby risingthe 5Cin rising marketsonly.
Manyofuswere unhappywhenthe MacBook Pro seventeenwas discontinued.My guessisthat the Retina shadejust wasn't mercantilein 17-inchesatthe time,anditwouldhavebeentoo treacheroustohave the denotethat sat on top ofthe 15-inch Retinain distancebut nextitin resolution. I'dliketothinkwe'll seethe MBP seventeen lapsein Retina form,butmust declareit's some-moreof the goalthanan expectation.
Jordan Kahn:
Withallofthe rumorsthat Applewill deliver the low-cost iPhone (iPhone 5C?)in serveto the bone-fide iPhone ascent (iPhone 5S?),there'ssomequestionin conditionsofwherethat puts Apple's stream iPhone lineup. I'd patternto seethe iPhone 4and 4S strictly leftfrom Apple's lineup (alongwith 30-pin connectors),andthe iPhone 5to hang aroundas the mid-range option.If storyisany indication,thatwouldputthe iPhone 5Sat $ 199on contract,the iPhone 5at $ 99on contract,andthenew low-cost iPhone 5Cat $ 0on contract.Of marchthereis regularlythe probabilitythatthe iPhone 5and iPhone 5C pricingcouldbe topsy-turvywiththe 5Cat $ 99,butthatwould needthenew low-cost iPhonetobe the most some-more constrained ascentthenthe stream iPhone 5.Itmightmake some-more claritythat way,however, sinceitwouldbe peculiarfor Appletohave the newly launched device sellfor reductionthanits prior era iPhone.We've already seenthe iPhone 5 sellfor $ 99on stipulateon the seriesof occasions.
Apartfrom iPhones, the singular thingthat you patternto seeatthe eventualityisnew iWork apps. Appleshowedof iWorkfor iCloud usingin the browserat WWDC progressingthis year,andyoucan gamblethatithas updatesplannedforthe restofits iWork appson both iOSand Mac.Notonlywillit move formationwith iWorkfor iCloud (and hopefully the improved reasonof pricing),butyoucanalso patternthe iOS appsto embrace iOS 7 updatestomakethe apps fitinwiththe handling system'snew look. Anew chronicleof iPhoto popped upwithsome teenager changesinthe ultimate betaof Mavericks,so I'm anticipating Applewill eventually residencethe disasterthatis trafficwith photosacross inclinationwith iCloudand iPhoto.Wemight even seethe appsgo free,and iLife app updatesare prolonged owingas well. Applealso reliable duringits previewoftheNew Mac Prothat thenew chronicleof FinalCut Pro Xisinthe works- Perhapswe'll listen to even some-moreabout Apple's pro offeringsandwherethe productsare headed,aswe already knowthenew Mac Prois setto arrive afterthis year.We'llalsomostlikelyget central Mavericksand iOS 7 recover dates.
Benjamin Mayo:
The perfect seriesof leakedpartsforthe lower-cost iPhonemakeits serveto Apple's lineupan inevitability.However,"lower cost"doesnot indispensably meantthe denotewillbe cheap.Inthe same approachthe iPad miniisnot the bill product, you patternthe'iPhone 5C'to cost in between $ 300and $ 350 unlocked.Thisis reducethanany stream iPhone sellsfor,but you don't seethe indicateofcreatingan completenew denoteof phoneifthe aim cost indicateisnot significantly reducethan anything accessible before. Spec-wise,the iPhone 5Cwill share internalswith boththe 4Sand iPhone 5.
Atthe moment, Apple runswith 3 products,the 4, 4Sand iPhone 5.From September, youthink Applewill facilitatethe lineuptojust twin products,the iPhone 5Candthe 5S,asthe 5Cistoo identicaltothe 5to aver gripping both around.As the serve specifying factor, youthinkitis timefor Appletostartthe entry-model iPhone 5Swith 32 GBof storage.This enables Appletohave the low-end sixteen GB iPhone 5Cand the 32 GB iPhone 5C stationinforthe'mid-range' choice now assignedbythe 4S.
Scott Buscemi:
In 2012, Apple hostedan eventualityin January, March, June, September,and October;yetso distantinthis year,we'veonlyhadthe WWDC keynote. Thus,the associationhasthechoiceofeither pulling outallthe something good to eatand introducing updates (or additions)toalloftheir programand hardware lineups,ortheycan substituteallofthenew products over mixed events.As mostas youwould wishto seeallofthegreat creationfrom Cupertino come outallat once, you holdthe associationwill followtheir common ordainand outlay the infancyofthe time introducingthenew iPhone 5Sand low-cost iPhone 5C (whichwill fundamentally mountfor"cheap" accordingtothe anti-Apple squads)andonly spending the tiny volumeof time recappingand announcingthe recover datesfor already-known products. Sadly,there's the unequivocallygood possibilitythatthe Apple TVwillnotbe removinganylove.
While youwouldlove the moderniseforthe retina MacBook Pro,there's the slim possibilitythatit'll essentiallyshow up duringthis iPhone-focused event. Mavericks,ontheother hand,will seeits recover date announced. iOS 7?s recover datewillbe voicedas well,which you creedwillbejust the couple of days prior tothe recoverofthe iPhone 5S.
iLife strugglesin Mavericks,sothey'lleither needtodo the tiny refurbishto repairthe harmony issuesortheycando the full moderniselike Logic Pro X. iWorkalso needstobe most smarter (real-time, multi-person collaboration),but iWorkfor iCloud showsthatthe association still isn'tthat distantyet.
The iPhone 5S itself,honestly, needstobe some-morethanan S upgrade.The processorwillno disbeliefbe upgraded,whichwillbegreatfor iOS 7andmaking certainthat allis silky smooth.However,the hardware facilitieswill unequivocally needto gleamforthis iPhone.The fingerprint scannerasMarkdescribedit- the singularthat simply allowsyouto clearyour phone-willnotcutitatall. you holdthe fingerprint scannermustbe thepartof thelarger remuneration network. Surely Applehas copiousnessof incomeinthe bankand the large, amatory audience.But Tim Cookandthe restofthe management team needto inferthatthereis still glowinthe engine.
Seth Weintraub:
Ithinkthe Sep 10th eventualitywillbean iPhone eventualitybut Appleoften slipssomeother product updatesintoan eventualityas well. Haswell Minis/MacBook Pros/iMacs as goodasthe redesigned Proareall duethis Fall so Applecould make knownandstart shippingthematthe Sep event.Wealmost regularlyget some-more sumas eventsget closeron Macsso stay tunedforthat.
iPadshadtheirown Oct eventuality last yearand you wouldn'tbe astoundedto seethe samethis year. Thatsaid, the iPad 5,whichwill demeanourlikebig Minis,havebeen floating aroundsinceatleast January so Applecould dumptheseatany time. Speakingof Minis, youthink Applewill enhancethe mini lineto include both Retina and non-Retina models -but substantiallynoton Sep 10th.
Asforthe iPhone,thiswillbeas mostaboutshowingoff the discriminating iOS 7 (whichhasso distantbeen polarizing)asitwillbeaboutnew hardware.We'vegot the flatteringgoodideaof iOS 7,but Appleoften savessome nuggetsforthe last reveal. It appearsthat Appleis startingtoshowoff thenew plastic-backed 'iPhone 5C' whichwillhave iPhone 5-ish specs. you holdthatwillbethe $ 399 iPhoneor"freewith 2 yearplan"we've grown in the habit oftointheUS.The iPhone 5might hang aroundasthe mid-tier ($ 99 w/plan) but substantiallyin the bottom 16-32GB patternonly.The flagship iPhone 5Swillhave the improved camera,faster/more fit chipsandof march fingerprint celebration of the mass capabilities. Wemight even see 32/64/128GB configstohelp computefromthe 5and 5C.
Wildcard: Applecouldshowoffits ultimate meditativein Apple TV land.
