Apple seems to have an updated iPhone SE in the works. The updated version will serve as a new low-end model and is also aiming to manufacture new iPad Air models, Bloomberg News reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter. The refreshed Apple products are said to be launched early next year, the report said.

 

This will be the first instance of the iPhone SE since 2022 when Apple added 5G and a faster A15 Bionic chip to the model. The model helps the company to better compete with industry leaders Samsung, Xiaomi, and others in the mid-range smartphone market. Apple is yet to respond to a Reuters request for comment.

Apple HomePods To Come With iPad-Like Display And AI Features

 

Apple is said to launch two new HomePods with iPad-like screens and AI features. According to a report from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the company is reportedly working on a new home accessory that will come with a touch-enabled display and Apple Intelligence features. This is said to be a tabletop device that is said to feature a robotic arm and iPad-like display.
 
 

The company is said to bring two versions of this device, one cheaper than the other. Notably, both devices are likely to operate on a newly developed operating system, potentially named homeOS.
 
 

The higher-end version, codenamed J595, is said to feature an iPad-like screen attached to a flexible robotic arm. This arm will enable the screen to be moved and repositioned, with actuators allowing tilting and full 36-degree rotation.
Previously, 9to5Mac reported that Apple is planning to launch a new device with an A18 chip for Apple INtelligence and a squarish display. This could be the lower-end version. It is believed that the device will come packed with a built-in camera, allowing compatibility with video conferencing apps like FaceTime.

Apple Rolls Out macOS Sequoia Without Apple Intelligence

 

Apple officially released macOS Sequoia recently, bringing features such as the ability to wirelessly mirror their iPhone on their Mac, window-tilling tools, and much more. There are Apple Intelligence features on the way, too, but they aren’t available yet.

 

iPhone mirroring is by far the coolest new feature in macOS Sequoia, and it could change how users use their phone. When users open the phone mirroring app, their iPhone pops up, and they can navigate around it using their mouse and type things with their keyboard.

 

Users’ iPhone notifications can also show up on their Mac. And later this year, they will be able to drag and drop things between their iPhone and their Mac.

Apple has continued to bring new features to its second-gen AirPods Pro, with features related to hearing aids the most recently added to them. However, the third-generation model might be in development and it could bring significant upgrades.

 

Expected to launch in 2025, the Apple AirPods Pro 3 builds on the health-related features that the company recently introduced in the second-generation model. However, it could be Apple’s first audio product to incorporate Apple Intelligence.

 

The current-gen AirPods Pro comes with a similar design similar to the original AirPods Por, which launched in 2019. Despite this, the company is not expected to make any radical changes in terms of build and form factor, apart from minor refinements. However, with some anticipated hardware additions, Apple could modify the internals to accommodate new components.

With built-in cameras and Apple Intelligence, the AirPods Pro 3 could offer real-time assistance regarding physical objects to the user. To power Apple Intelligence, the company might equip the AirPods Pro 3 with a new H3 chip, which could enable other advanced features, such as additional health functionalities.

 

The AirPods Pro 3 is likely to retain all the new hearing assistance features that Apple recently rolled out in the AirPods Pro 2. However, Apple might have more innovations in store for the next Pro model.

 

Bloomberg previously reported that the company could introduce a new temperature sensor in an AirPods model to offer more accurate body temperature measurements. This sensor might work alongside other health sensors in an Apple Watch to upgrade health tracking.
