New iPad Pro leaks, Powerbeats Fit, notification summary UI oddities

Benjamin and Chance talk about the week’s Apple news, including the bonkers leak of the so-far-unannounced M5 iPad Pro, and then the FCC chipped in with showing off the new MacBook Pro and Vision Pro too. Also, Benjamin’s robot vacuum got a dramatically better Matter update, Apple uses iPhone cameras to shoot Friday Night Baseball, and Beats unveils the Powerbeats Fit. 

And in Happy Hour Plus, we have some new iPhone follow-up as Chance samples the Max life, and Benjamin’s Air is accruing dust. Subscribe at 9to5mac.com/join.
