iPhone SE 4 and Apple Watch X Rumors (The MacRumors Show S02E32) MacRumors 2023-08-18 | On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we discuss two of the most significantly redesigned devices Apple is rumored to have in store: the "Apple Watch X" and the fourth-generation iPhone SE.Apple is reportedly planning a complete revamp of the Apple Watch for the device's tenth anniversary titled "Apple Watch X," similar to 2017's iPhone X that celebrated ten years of the iPhone. Since the original Apple Watch was unveiled in 2014 and launched in 2015, it is not clear whether the Apple Watch X will be released in 2024 or 2025.Apple is apparently working on a thinner casing for the Apple Watch X, as well as different ways for bands to attach to the device to create more internal space for bigger batteries or other components. The Apple Watch X could coincide with Apple's introduction of microLED display technology, which surpasses the color and clarity of existing OLED screens. It may also be the first Apple Watch to feature blood pressure monitoring, and there are other reports about it sporting a larger display.In other news, Apple is believed to be planning a major overhaul of its low cost iPhone. The fourth-generation iPhone SE is expected to be based on the iPhone 14, bringing Face ID and an OLED display to the iPhone SE for the first time, but with the same single rear camera setup as the current model.It is also rumored to feature a USB-C port, Apple's long-rumored custom 5G modem, and an Action Button like the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. This would be a clear differentiator between the iPhone SE and the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus, which are not expected to offer the Action Button. The new device is not expected to launch until 2025.Follow us on Twitter @danbarbera and @HartleyCharlton.

10 Hidden Easter Eggs in macOS (Try These Now!) MacRumors 2023-08-07 | This video is sponsored by xBloom. Visit xbloom.com/?utm_source=xbloom&utm_id=MacRumors for more information on the incredible xBloom Coffee Machine!In computing lore, an Easter egg typically refers to a secret message, image, or feature intentionally left in software, often (but not always) hidden in plain sight. Since the 1970s, programmers have used them to credit unheralded developers, reference pop culture, sneak games into productivity apps, and generally inject a little bit of humanity into their code.When Apple was a fledgling company, Mac developers regularly left fun little Easter eggs in software, but not so much these days. While surprises can still be found, they are a lot more subtle and sober, and exist more as a nod and wink to Apple's origins rather than anything edgy or unauthorized.

Google Pixel Fold: An iPhone Users Review MacRumors 2023-07-21 | As an iPhone user, it's no secret that I'm pretty invested in the iOS ecosystem. However, after using the Pixel Fold for a few weeks, I'm seriously considering making the switch. Folding phones are fresh, exciting, and something I wish Apple would release soon.For me, the design of the Pixel Fold is what really sells this phone. The cover display is the perfect size for normal use, and the larger unfolded screen is still comfortable to use and doesn't feel unwieldy.Purchase Google Pixel Fold Here - amzn.to/44D5oym

Apple’s Rumored M3 and ‘Pro’ iMacs (The MacRumors Show S02E27) MacRumors 2023-07-14 | This episode is sponsored by Mint Mobile. Visit mintmobile.com/mac to get your new wireless plan for just 15 bucks a month, and get the plan shipped to your door for FREE!On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we discuss the new 24- and 32-inch iMac models that are rumored to be in the works.Later this year, Apple is expected to refresh the 24-inch iMac. The update is set to focus on the M3 chip, with no other major changes rumored, likely owing to the complete redesign that the current machine received upon its introduction in April 2021. This means that the iMac is set to be the only Mac product line to skip the M2 generation of chips entirely.The 24-inch iMac could be among the first Macs to get the M3 chip, which should offer major performance and efficiency improvements over the M1 and M2 chips due to Apple's transition from TSMC's 5nm processes to a 3nm node. A refreshed selection of color options is also not out of the question.An iMac with a 32-inch display – the same size as the Pro Display XDR – is also in development, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. It is expected to feature the M3 Pro and M3 Max chips, and appears to be positioned as a successor to the iMac Pro or the high-end 27-inch iMac. This new high-end desktop iMac is not expected to launch until late 2024 or sometime in 2025.
