T'was the week before the iPhone 17 launch and all about the house, every leaker is trying to get in one more rumor, and more, all on the AppleInsider Podcast.
While we wait for September 9, 2025, and Apple's unveiling of every detail of the iPhone 17 range, there is still much being leaked and discussed. In these last few days, there are leaks you can believe about colors, and ones you can hope are wrong about pricing.
But then there's always something else coming up and suddenly there's a lot to talk about for the future — including perhaps the far future. There's news of Apple beach wear with a smart sunglasses version of Apple Vision Pro, for instance.
Plus there's news of the nearer future as Apple and Google announce collaboration over search with Siri. And that news came as Google's antitrust ruling means it and Apple can continue much as they are.
BONUS: Subscribe via Patreon or Apple Podcasts to hear AppleInsider+, the extended edition. This time, we know Apple will be launching iPhones at its "Awe Dropping" but despite all of the rumors, we do not know exactly what will make these "the best iPhones ever". Here's what we hope for, though.
