Apple is reportedly focusing on AI and design upgrades for its upcoming iPhone lineup. A new Apple Intelligence feature is being developed for iOS 19, set to launch this fall. This feature is an AI-powered battery optimization mode designed to extend battery life, especially for the iPhone 17 Air. This model is expected to utilize the feature to compensate for a smaller battery. The company appears to be heavily invested in AI, viewing it as a crucial element for future device enhancements.
Meanwhile, reports indicate Apple is contemplating a price increase for the next iPhone, possibly the iPhone 17 series. Sources suggest the company aims to avoid attributing the increase to tariffs. Apple has historically relied on Chinese manufacturers, and while past tariffs have been a concern, current trade conditions show a pause on tariffs between the US and China until early August. Apple is considering attributing the price hike to the inclusion of next-generation features and design changes.
In other news, Apple is gearing up for Global Accessibility Awareness Day with a preview of new accessibility features coming to its platforms later this year. This marks the 40th anniversary of Apple's dedicated accessibility office, with continuous development in this area. Upcoming features include App Store Accessibility Nutrition Labels, which will inform users about supported accessibility features like VoiceOver and Reduce Motion. Additionally, the Magnifier app, currently on the iPhone, will be introduced to the Mac, allowing users to manipulate images for better visibility using Continuity Camera or a USB-compatible camera.
