Apple's recent 'Glowtime' event unveiled the iPhone 16 series, which includes the iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, and 16 Pro Max, all featuring the new iOS 18. The highlight was Apple Intelligence, an AI-driven suite enhancing productivity, although it won't be available until later this year or next, initially rolling out in the U.S. in October. Despite some hardware updates, the event left many disappointed due to the absence of anticipated products like AirPods Max 2 and Apple Watch Ultra 3. Tech enthusiasts can update their new iPhones to iOS 18.1 beta to access some AI features immediately. This launch also spotlighted three Indian-origin engineers who played pivotal roles in the iPhone 16's development. Analysts predict these innovations could drive a significant upgrade cycle, potentially leading to Apple selling upwards of 240 million iPhones next year, especially focusing on rejuvenating its market in China.
