00:00Talk us through, Mark, why this is such a big thing for the iPad and what innovation is really at stake here.
00:06Yeah, let's just take a step back and talk about what is a vapor chamber.
00:09It's a liquid cooling system, so there's actually special scientifically developed liquid inside of the iPhone 17 Pro today.
00:18And the reason they did that is that they noticed their chips can run so powerfully like they're in a laptop,
00:24where it can get the device pretty hot.
00:26And in something as thin and light as an iPhone, you can't put a fan in there to cool it down like you would in a MacBook Pro or a desktop or what have you.
00:34So this offsets that.
00:36But the iPad Pro is even thinner than the iPhone.
00:39And even though the thermal constraints aren't as constrained because you have that larger surface area, the chips are getting more performant.
00:46They just put the M5 processor from the MacBook Pro and the new Vision Pro and the iPad Pro.
00:51But you can see as they continue to add more performance to the iPad Pro and those designs continue to get thinner and lighter,
00:58something's going to give, especially when you can't put in a fan.
01:00So the solution is bringing that vapor chamber from the latest Pro iPhones to the next generation Pro iPads in 2027.
01:09Mark, real quick, take us inside Apple and how Apple works.
01:12So why is it they try the tech first on iPhone and then later roll it to a future generation iPad?
01:17It really all depends.
01:21You know, there have been so many features they put in the iPad first before they put in the iPhone or put in the Mac before they brought it to another product.
01:27So there's really no consistency there.
01:29I think it comes down to the performance needs for that particular product and the importance.
01:34Much more important to get the vapor chamber in the iPhone sooner.
01:38Remember, the iPhone 15 Pro came out a few years ago.
01:42Super hot.
01:43They needed to do something to address that.
01:45And that was their solution.
01:46The iPad Pros today, they don't really overheat.
01:49But there's going to be a time where the performance gets so high that if they didn't have the vapor chamber,
01:54maybe you would have that overheating issue.
01:55So it's all dependent.
01:56So I'm going to watch it again.
01:57So we're going to keep doing this.
01:58So I'll turn it back in.
01:58So that's how this anĂ¡lises something to change.
