Apple Watch Series 10, iPhone 16 and New AirPods: Everything Apple announced today
AirPods 4 will also feature personalised spatial audio, as well as the ability to interact directly with Siri using gestures such nodding your head when accepting a call. The new charging case has a battery life of up to 30 hours, and it can be charged wirelessly or with USB-C if you own the ANC version. Preorders for both variants of AirPods 4 will begin on September 20. New colors include starlight, midnight, blue and orange. Apple released the first AirPods Max by 2020. It seems that not much will change on this front. They were nice, but also expensive. The new AirPods Max will be $549 and available on September 20. The AirPods Pro 2 has a feature that reduces decibels entering your ears when you are in a loud environment. You can use them as earplugs. It’ll be cool to attend a concert where everyone is wearing AirPods. Apple offers a clinical test for determining your hearing loss in the Pro 2 models. They also offer an over-the counter hearing aid certification, which allows AirPods to be used as real hearing aids. This will disrupt the OTC hearing aid industry. –Boone Ashworth
Siri and Apple Intelligence
The newly revamped Siri and Apple Intelligence features will not be available at the launch of iOS 18 nor the release of the iPhone 16. The iOS 18.1 update will bring them to you in the next few weeks. In our iOS 18 feature review, we’ve covered these features in more detail. To summarize (as AI loves to do), the new features help bring artificial-intelligence features to the iPhone.
