Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “What to Expect From Apple in 2023 (More Than a VR Headset!)”.
It’S a new year and I need something to look forward to So today, we’re going to look to the future of Apple, although I should look a little more futurey. Yes, the future of Apple, but not like super far into the future. Just what’s going on next year, so before we end the year of 2022, there is one more thing for us to talk about what we can expect from Apple in 2023.. Future. Thank you, foreign, that a lot will change in apple land and, of course, topping the buzz is the expected mixed reality VR and AR headset reports and patents point to The Branding to be something like apple reality. Now we don’t know anything official yet, but some renderings have been made by what we’ve learned from reporters like this.
Drawing from the information it’s looking like a pair of ski goggles and that’s led to other mock-ups that we see shared around by graphic designers. Now this headset has been in progress for so long, but it really really seems that this is finally the year that Apple will reveal it. Reports suggest Apple, could talk about this as early as January. Now the company May slowly talk about this all year, long as developers build programs to work with this mix of virtual and augmented reality.
Meta has been ahead of apple with its Quest Pro, which just debuted at fifteen hundred dollars, whatever apple is cooking up, is rumored to be even more Advanced to include things like eye tracking and 8K resolution displays straps with Surround Sound audio and multiple cameras for pass-through Vision, but how much more is that going to cost? I have another video linked here where I go into all the expectations of the headset and how Apple May reveal it. But, needless to say, it is going to be a big year for apple and everyone will be looking at how Apple puts its fingerprint on VR, because Apple tends to be late to the game. But it also sets a tone for how to handle design and how to level up these products for consumers everyday lives.
Now you don’t often get brand new products from Apple, so it’s going to be a big deal. The Apple watch was eight years ago, but not every new product is a smash hit. The homepod speaker was released in 2018 and that large 350 dollar model was discontinued three years later in 2021.. Right now, the 100 homepod minis, the only speaker with Siri built in but rumor, has it that that can change in 2023 apple is said to be working on a new home pod and they could slap a screen on it to make it some sort of smart Home hub Mark German of Bloomberg, says Apple could even be doing something similar to what Google did with the pixel tablet, where it could just be an iPad that slaps on to dock with the speaker which – and this is the year we may see – Apple’s home kit Become more compatible with other smart devices, we have been living in a time. Well, there have been so many walled Gardens with the smart home where you couldn’t mix and match products. For example, Apple Siri wasn’t talking to Amazon products, but were watching closely in 2023 to see how that changes. There’S a standard that has been adopted for more devices that normally compete with each other to be able to now talk to each other. The communication standard is called matter and, as an example, it’s a way for Apple’s homepod to control Google Nest devices or Amazon Alexa devices.
We just have to see how exactly this shapes up and if everyone does play nice with each other the day I can talk to Siri to control my Alexa smart plugs will be a wish come true, 2023 could be the year. We have less smart home headaches, there are some other products said to be getting upgrades and it could all be sped up with the shift to USBC ports. Yep. Everyone is looking to the iPhone 15.
As being the moment, we drop lightning ports to switch to USBC and it’s all because of the European Union’s ruling, to make USBC the universal charging cable for phones. This directive is so there’s one charging plug for all small mobile devices like phones, tablets and headphones, so that there is less electronic waste, which means everyone will need to start throwing out lightning cords and buying more Chargers to make more electronic waste before not making. As much waste right, simple got it good, most phones use a USBC Port, except for Apple. It started moving some iPads to USBC, but will Apple wait yet another year and drag its feet since the law isn’t going to be enforced until the end of 2024? Or will the company just make USBC on an iPhone and start us down the healing path? Because right now, I’m tired of carrying multiple charger cords on my commute.
Please Apple! Just do it please, thanks just do it. Apple is not exactly a fan of forcing everyone to go USBC, because what, if we come up with a new innovation, that’s better than USBC? Are we all going to be stuck in USBC land without Innovation because of this ruling? Well, at least for now, it could be better for sure this also means Apple’s. Other accessories are going to need upgrades for the New Ports, Mac keyboard, mouses track pads, the airpods charging cases. All these things use lightning, and there are some beats products that also use the lightning connector and there’s the airpods max. A change in its charging cable could motivate Apple to also make some more upgrades to the over-the-ear headphones, but, let’s pivot over to Mac land, a new Mac Pro is likely on the horizon, because the current one uses Intel processors and apple wants its own silicon. In there we know apple is working on a new high-end Mac computer. The company said so during a March Event, John turnus Apple’s senior vice president of Hardware engineering was talking about how the Mac, Studio and Studio display joined the rest of our incredible Mac. Lineup with apple silicon, making our transition nearly complete with just one more product to go Mac Pro, but that is for another day and that day could be June at WWDC, the worldwide developers conference, the last Mac Pro update, came out at WWDC in 2019 and the Starting price was six thousand dollars, but the big thing to watch isn’t just how many chips it’s going to connect with Apple’s Ultra Fusion technology.
I want to know, is it gon na come with a set of wheels? Let me know in the comments what Apple upgrades and new products you’re looking forward to most in 2023. Thanks for watching and I’ll see you in the future foreign .
