While we enjoy our new iPhone 16, Apple is working to make a lower cost Apple Vision Pro, Meta Orion is pretending to be regular glasses, and Jony Ive's firm has a cute new logo, on the AppleInsider podcast.
Apple's new iPhone 16 Pro
is not into style over substance, it's always about going deeper. Still, the Desert Titanium color on the new iPhone 16 Pro range is glorious -- and Jony Ive's new LoveFrom logo is the cutest thing you'll see this week.
Not that it has competition for that title from, say, Meta Orion. Billed as the future of mixed reality headsets, it's currently making a spectacle of itself -- or rather spectacles, looking like 1950s-style glasses. Yet it is a step forward, at least for Meta, and Apple is reportedly also making some strides in its move to produce a lower cost Apple Vision Pro.
But back to now, and this episode marks the first full week of hosts William Gallagher and Wesley Hilliard owning an iPhone 16 Pro Max. They want to tell you all about it -- the good parts and, if not exactly the bad, the at least not-quite-so-good.
