😁 The video shies away from the unavailable ‌Apple Intelligence‌ features like personalized Siri replies, and instead focuses on what's available now.

ℹ️ Apple originally published ads with unavailable ‌Siri‌ features when the iPhone 16 launched, and now it's facing lawsuits as a result from customers who expected the ‌Siri‌ features on their new ‌iPhone 16‌ devices.

👂 What's new with iPhone in the future

1️⃣ iPhones will be released in different months
This year it will be as usual, but next year is different – in fall 2026 the expensive models will be released: the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, iPhone 18 Air and the new foldable iPhone. In spring 2027, Apple will release the iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e.

2️⃣ The holes in the screen will disappear by 2027
iPhone 18 Pro (2026) will have only Face ID under the screen, and by the iPhone's 20th anniversary (2027), Apple will hide the camera under the screen as well.

😵 Google mocks iPhone 17 design rumors in Pixel promo

Please don’t go repeating everything you see.

😁 In the ad, Google points out that the Pixel had a horizontal camera bar first, before delving into other features that Apple has allegedly copied. The video is positioned as a "podcast" featuring a Pixel phone and an ‌iPhone‌.

– Hi, I'm Pixel, and this is my friend, iPhone.
– Good day.
– There are a lot of rumors circulating about iPhone's upcoming redesign.
– It's crazy. Can you imagine me doing the same thing you did first years later?

🤨 Google highlights Night Mode, Clean Up, and widgets as examples of features that were available on Android first. The video wraps up with the ‌iPhone‌ copying a line that the Pixel says first: "We want to remind everyone that these rumors are just rumors."

What's known about the iPhone 2️⃣0️⃣ ?

📰 According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is likely to produce the iPhone 20 primarily in Chinese factories, contrary to expectations that the company would split production capacity between China and India.

🇹🇼 In 2027, the 20th anniversary of the first iPhone, the company is planning a major redesign of the lineup with “extremely complex” parts and new manufacturing methods that are easier to implement in China due to expertise and infrastructure.

🤔 iPhone 20 is expected to be predominantly glass.

🕯 For the iPhone anniversary, Apple is planning to revolutionize its products

📰 According to Bloomberg, the company will have several brand new devices, which are considered inside Apple as the biggest anniversary initiatives. And the innovations will not only be on the hardware side, but also on the software side, including the AI area (honest-to-goodness).

🔎 Apple's plan for 2027:

・The first foldable iPhone with no visible bend in the internal display (for the 20th anniversary of the first iPhone);

・An all-glass iPhone with a curved body and without a single notch in the display (for the 10th anniversary of the iPhone X);

・Apple smart glasses with cameras and Visual Intelligence features to gather information about the environment (and not only about it ;) );

・New AirPods with cameras for Visual Intelligence;

・Apple Watch with a camera for Visual Intelligence;

・A desktop device with a robotic arm based on an AI-enabled smart home hub under development;

・A new foldable large device that will be something between an iPad and a Mac while still having a touchscreen (but likely in 2028);

・Two important Apple AI developments are in the pipeline: powerful server chips that will power next-generation Apple Intelligence and a cutting-edge Siri with its own LLM that should make the assistant more human-like.

💪 Mark Gurman notes that waiting for these new products will give optimism to those who are tired of boring and slow updates. Simply put: the company will once again harness long and then go fast.

🧍‍♂️ New features include Accessibility Nutrition Labels on the App Store, Braille Access, and Accessibility Reader; plus innovative updates to Live Listen, visionOS, Personal Voice, and more.

At Apple, accessibility is part of our DNA. Making technology for everyone is a priority for all of us, and we’re proud of the innovations we’re sharing this year. That includes tools to help people access crucial information, explore the world around them, and do what they love.

– said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO.

🤖 Apple faced a shortage of powerful GPUs for AI training last year

All because of competitors like Amazon and Microsoft buying up resources.

📰 As Bloomberg reports, this is what has slowed the development of Apple Intelligence and LLM.

🐌 Apple also adheres to strict privacy standards, which limits access to real user data, unlike competitors (like Google). As a result, Apple uses synthetic data created by third-party vendors to train its AI. Recently, iPhones have started to help in this process, but Apple is overdue.

💪 Still, the company often prefers to wait for competitors to test the technology before introducing its own version, which has previously been successful with MP3 players, smartphones, and other products.

🇪🇺 iPhones will be allowed to set third-party voice assistant as default in the EU

📰 As Mark Gurman reports, Apple will have to introduce a feature to support third-party voice assistants under pressure from EU authorities to comply with the Digital Markets Act (DMA).

🔍 So iPhone users will be able to set, for example, Google Assistant as the default voice assistant and invoke it with the side button instead of Siri.

💭 It will also be possible to put a voice assistant based on ChatGPT. Right now, Siri as part of Apple Intelligence is able to relay verbal requests to ChatGPT, but with the introduction of the new feature, it will be possible to remove Siri from this chain and address ChatGPT directly.

🤫 When exactly Apple will prepare this feature for release is still unknown. But the company will definitely not present it with pomp, and will announce it quietly, as it seeks to preserve its own services.

📍 Also, don't expect this feature to be available anywhere outside of the EU (at least not before other countries start dictating their own terms to Apple).
