😐 High-quality renders of the @iPhone 17 lineup Still not official, but they are already pretty.

📱 With the launch of the iPhone 17 happening in less than 2 months, we have our best look yet at the exact designs, colors, features and release date for iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max.

📆 According to rumors, the fall event will be held on September 9. #rumors #iphone

📸 Mark Gurman about the fate of the Apple employee caught on the street with an iPhone 17 Pro 📰 If legitimate – Gurman wrote in his recent "Power On" newsletter that it was "likely" an iPhone 17 Pro – it would be a rare example of an unreleased iPhone being captured in the wild.

Since the revelation, there have been questions over whether the Apple employee testing the device will be disciplined for being part of a leak. Let me be clear on that: The testing process seen in the images went as intended, and the employee — and Apple — were basically just unlucky. There are hundreds of iPhone 17s being actively used around the world right now in stealth cases. It just so happens that a member of the public knew exactly what they were looking at and that the iPhone design is different enough (see the relocated lidar and LED flash) to be noticeable. It’s possible that many of you reading this have seen unreleased Apple devices in the wild without ever realizing it.

🥴 Longtime Apple fans likely remember the famous iPhone 4 leak, where an Apple employee left an unreleased test model at a bar, and Gizmodo got a hold of it and published a detailed analysis of the device in 2010. #iphone #rumors #leaks @iPhone

🇯🇵 Japan passes law requiring Apple to allow third-party app stores on iOS 📰 Japan's Fair Trade Commission published a 119-page guide to the Mobile Software Competition Law, which will go into effect on December 18. 🅰️ Under its provision, Apple will have to allow third-party app stores and third-party payment systems in apps available either in their own app stores or in third-party app stores on all iPhones sold in Japan. Basically, the law is a complete copy of the draft DMA law in the EU, which is even referenced in the document. 👨‍💻 Apple also has to create a firewall that will prevent their own teams from accessing and using sensitive developer data when creating competing products, and they'll also have to submit annual compliance reports. Time has been given for implementation no later than January 18, 2026. #iOS #laws @iPhone

Apple is preparing to launch its next Vision Pro headset as early as this year,

according to a report from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. 🧠 The main innovation inside is the M4 chip, which will be significantly more powerful than the M2 in the first gen and will add Apple Intelligence support. 🥽 Also, according to rumors, Apple is going to focus on comfort. The dimensions and weight of the device will remain unchanged, as the previous design will be retained, but Apple will redesign the strap system to make the Vision Pro more comfortable to wear on the head.

👂 By the way, Apple is currently working on a completely new model of mixed reality headset with significantly reduced weight (currently ~600 grams). The preliminary launch window is 2027, but the company's plans may change and the timing may be pushed back. At the same time, Apple is developing a low-latency wired headset designed for corporate applications. The company was also working on glasses that connect to a Mac and could serve as a virtual monitor, but suspended work on the project several months ago.

📰 Apple has acquired two startups for Vision Pro and Apple Intelligence 1️⃣ TrueMeeting allows users to scan their faces with an iPhone and create an avatar image using AI. The company's official website was shut down in the winter, which hints at the startup's acquisition during that period, although the deal was not officially announced, the information became available from regulatory filings in the EU. TrueMeeting's CommonGround Human AI technology creates a “hyper-realistic digital twin” of the user, which could be implemented in the new version of Persona in visionOS, which was unveiled at WWDC on June 9. 2️⃣ WhyLabs monitors large AI language models and prevents them from hallucinating. It does this by tracking how the neural network's reasoning flow and results “drift” and recording performance degradation. This appears to have been acquired specifically for the development of Apple Intelligence and Apple's upcoming proprietary LLM models. No official announcement has been made about the deal, although the company's website is still operational. #AppleInc #projects #VisionPro #AppleIntelligence @iPhone
