The iPhone 17 has 8GB of RAM, but Apple’s “lower-end” iPhones set to launch in the first half of next year will get — drumroll please — 9GB of RAM, says supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo:

The touchscreen device will come with current-gen M5 Pro and M5 Max chips when it launches later this year or early 2027, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. Apple is reportedly planning to release an M7-equipped model in the future, as part of the company’s rumored plans to skip the M6 Pro and M6 Max.

I’m not sure there’s an AI agent that can solve the fact that everything costs more and the planet is melting.

Tata Electronics, an India-based manufacturing partner for both companies, says it’s investigating a “cybersecurity incident” after the World Leaks ransomware group posted more than 200,000 component and specification documents on the dark web. The files reportedly include inspection ⁠standards for iPhone ​circuit board components, and drawings for the Model 3 revamp that Tesla launched in 2023.

That entry of default had indicated that Prosser hadn’t responded to Apple’s lawsuit against him. But Prosser’s (recently obtained) counsel and Apple’s counsel asked for the judge in the case to set it aside, which he did.

The AI-powered feature is designed to adjust the angle of a photo you’ve taken… but maybe not reconstruct your entire head.

Cait Dooley, Apple Watch and Health Product Marketing Manager, was quick to tell TechRadar that older Apple Watch models will still work with newer iPhones and receive security updates. It’s just that Siri AI and some other watchOS 27 features require a bit more horsepower.

We knew this was coming thanks to a settlement Apple made with Brazil’s competition watchdog last year, but now it’s official.

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says that the next version of Apple’s ultra-slim device could arrive in spring 2027, echoing a previous report from The Information. Apple is reportedly working to improve the iPhone Air’s battery life and may add an ultrawide camera.

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman also said more third-party chatbots in Siri and modular Apple Watch faces are coming later this year, despite not making an appearance at WWDC.

That’s Katie Dippold, creator and showrunner of the horror / comedy hybrid Widow’s Bay, which Apple just confirmed has been renewed. The news comes just ahead of the season 1 finale, which streams on June 17th.

The deposition in Apple’s lawsuit against Prosser is scheduled for June 16th, according to a status report filed on Wednesday.

The headline feature is the camera upgrades, but the smart home app is getting more new features, including energy monitoring.

Now that we’ve had a couple of days to digest all the Siri AI updates, the new corner radii, and everything else Apple announced at its developer conference, we spend the episode answering all your most burning questions. What non-AI stuff are we excited about? How much catching up did Siri really do this week? And wait: what about the HomePod?

The 5,458-acre site in Wittman, Arizona, was once the centerpiece of Apple’s ambition to build its own self-driving car. But after Tim Cook pulled the plug on Project Titan, the tech company put the testing ground up for sale. The deal, recorded June 5th in Maricopa County filings, is for $220 million — nearly twice the $125 million Apple paid for it in 2021. And it comes as Waymo expands its presence in Arizona, including new office space in Tempe.
