Marty covers the Space Black color rumor and internal chip bump for the next Apple Vision Pro as reported by Zac Hall at 9to5Mac, relaying Mark Gurman's Bloomberg preview ahead of Apple's September 9 event. Primary SourceApple Vision Pro could soon have a whole new look — Zac Hall, 9to5Mac (Sept 5, 2025)https://9to5mac.com/2025/09/05/apple-vision-pro-2-space-black/  What the reporting says·       Apple has tested Space Black as a color option for the next Vision Pro.·       Expect a chip upgrade from M2 to a newer generation (M4 or possibly M5) to headline internal changes.·       External design shifts may be modest—think Apple Watch Ultra → Ultra 2—though a single head‑strap has also been rumored for comfort.·       Apple is exploring a cheaper/lighter headset and even smart glasses over the next two years (per Bloomberg's preview referenced by 9to5Mac). Why this matters·       Color as a visible “tell”: a Space Black finish could be the easiest way to spot the new model if most changes are internal.·       Performance bump: newer silicon should improve latency, video encode/decode, and multitasking headroom for spatial apps.·       Comfort cues: if Apple moves to a single strap, setup friction could drop and long-session stability could improve. What to watch for at/after Sept 9·       Any explicit mention of new Vision Pro colorways or retail images that show Space Black hardware.·       Release notes or developer guidance hinting at higher default rendering targets or new media pipelines tied to newer chips.·       Pricing moves: color alone won't move the $3,499 needle; look for hints about a lower-cost model later on. Quick takeaways·       If the look matters to you, waiting for official confirmation could make sense.·       If you prefer value, keep an eye on first‑gen promotions/refurbs once the refresh lands.·       Expect incremental hardware this round; bigger shifts may come with a lighter/cheaper model or eventual smart glasses.Follow the live stream at YouTube.com/@VisionProfiles on Monday nights at 9 PM EST or catch the video later on Youtube or audio on any pod catcher service Email: ThePodTalkNetwork@gmail.comWebsite: ThePodTalk.Net

Benjamin and Chance prepare to have their jaw dropped in the run up to the September 9 Apple event where we expect to see iPhone 17, Apple Watch Series 11 and maybe AirPods Pro 3. There's an interesting report on Apple's strategic calculus when it comes to acquiring other companies, and Gemini might become the brain of Siri. Also, Apple TV+ ups its monthly price by a hefty 30%.  And in Happy Hour Plus, we reflect on the last fifteen years of Apple event slogans, and whether there's a trend of decline. Subscribe at 9to5mac.com/join.

Plus, Apple formally appeals the EU on anti-steering requirements, and Jeff Williams announces his retirement in the latest significant shakeup of the Apple leadership team.
