At Phones Canada, we are eagerly anticipating the upcoming iOS 18 update from Apple, set to be unveiled at the WWDC 2024 Keynote on June 10th. This highly anticipated update is said to be the biggest iOS update of all time, bringing exciting new AI features to eligible iPhone users starting in September.
One key change in iOS 18 will be the introduction of AI-based summaries in popular apps like Messages, Notes, Safari, and Voice Memos. Apple is focusing on handling most AI tasks on-device for faster performance and enhanced privacy. For tasks that require cloud-based processing, Apple’s M2 Ultra chip will power the servers.
It’s important to note that some of these cutting-edge AI features will be exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and later models. This restriction may be related to the advanced technology found in the 3nm A17 Pro chip powering the 2023 Pro models, offering lightning-fast AI acceleration capabilities.
If you’re considering upgrading your iPhone, it’s wise to wait for the release of the iPhone 16 Pro or iPhone 16 Pro Max alongside the iOS 18 update in 2024. These new models are expected to feature a more powerful A18 Pro chipset that can handle even more complex AI tasks.
Stay tuned for more details at WWDC 2024 as we learn which AI features will be exclusive to the upcoming iPhone 16 line. In the meantime, rest assured that Phones Canada will keep you informed about all things related to Apple’s latest innovations in telecommunications technology.
