580: Iconic Plateau

Stephen Hackett joins Jason to discuss modem quirks, new iPhone rumors, cutting-edge immersive video production, and the boring march of Apple silicon.

Jason has spent a little while with the new M5 iPad Pro, M5 MacBook Pro, and M5 Vision Pro (with accessories!) and we review them all. Also, Apple's deal with F1 crosses the finish line.

It's a new and vibrant era for Upgrade, as we discuss Apple TV changes, iPad software updates, and immersive NBA games. Myke reviews Apple's F1 TV strategy, while Jason comes up with a winning TV series idea and reviews the iPhone Air.

Myke tries Tahoe, ICEBlock gets blocked, and Apple toggles from Vision Pro to glasses.

Jason's spent a week with the iPhone Air and Myke's been using his iPhone 17 Pro, so it's time to discuss deeper thoughts about this year's models. Also: internal chatbot chat, Intel investments, and miniature Macs!

Reunited in Memphis, Jason and Myke discuss iPhone and AirPods Pro first impressions, phone transfer troubles, MacBook rumors, and St. Jude shenanigans.

Apple's new operating systems have arrived and we've got thoughts about iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS Tahoe, and more. We also catch up on what we've learned since last week's Apple Event.

From the iPhone Air to the iPhone 17 models, from AirPods Pro 3 to the new Apple Watches, we break down all the announcements from the September Apple Media Event!

Jason and Myke preview what will happen at next week's Apple event. What form might a thinner iPhone Air take? Will the AirPods Pro come roaring back? Is the Apple Watch Ultra in store for an upgrade? To the winner goes the glory.

After an era of stability, Apple may be about to mix things up with the iPhone, including a bunch of new models and even a change to the traditional fall roll-out cycle. And we end the Summer of Fun with a summery Ask Upgrade!
