Both the new iPhone 16 range and the Apple Watch Series 10 have been described as merely incremental updates, but in practice there is such a lot more to them, even before Apple Intelligence arrives.
The new iPhone 16 range
The perceived wisdom is that the iPhone 16 range is not complete until Apple Intelligence arrives -- and that is true. But host Wesley Hilliard makes the case that, at least at first, Apple Intelligence is not going to make as gigantic difference as people assume.
Plus he wants to make the case that what we have right now in these shipping models is excellent. In particular, the camera systems on the new Pro models are exemplary, and the new Photographic Styles are enormously more than simple filters.
Subscribe via Patreon or Apple Podcasts to hear AppleInsider+, the extended edition which this time takes the usual step back from the news and focuses instead on what's really on our minds. Which is what we ordered, if we ordered anything. And also very particularly just what advice new iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, and Mac buyers should hear.
