Apple Vision Pro exasperations and iPhone 16 anticipation on the AppleInsider Podcast

By William Gallagher

Even Apple Vision Pro fans are getting frustrated by its lack of progress now, but perhaps Apple has its mind on the new iPhone 16 coming soon, or the bigger, better, and possibly bendier models yet to come.

Apple Vision Pro is still amazing, but there still isn't enough you can do with it

Now that we're over six months into the Apple Vision Pro being on sale, fan Wes Hilliard is joined by less-fan Mike Wuerthele. It would be pure clickbait to tell you that either of them has truly changed their position, but one of your hosts does see a bright future for the headset and the other is more exasperated with it than he was -- and that's not the way around you might expect.

There's more news this week, too, about Sonos and its troubles which Wes thinks goes back a lot further than just the most recent issues over its app. Plus there are new iPhones just an inch away and it sounds like, as ever, they are going to bring updated cameras. There has to come a point where there is no more that can be done to an iPhone's camera, but it isn't going to be 2024.

BONUS: Subscribe via Patreon or Apple Podcasts to hear AppleInsider+, the extended edition which this time takes the apparently obvious issue of "how to buy an iPhone" and shows you just how you can save money -- or simply make as sure as you can that you beat the pre-order rush.
