iPhone, AirPods और Mac सब बदल जाएंगे? 8 जून को ऐपल करेगा बड़ा ऐलान

36 For years, Apple has integrated machine learning into its products with a quiet, cautious approach. But that era of subtlety is over. As Aaj Tak reports, the upcoming event is framed around the tagline “All Systems Glow,” a phrase that signals a visual and functional rebirth of the iPhone, iPad, and Mac. This isn’t just a software patch; it is an attempt to rescue the iPhone from a perception that it has fallen behind Samsung’s AI-driven flagships. The stakes are high. Apple has a history of announcing AI features that take years to actually reach the user’s hand. This time, the expectation is immediate deployment. The goal is a smarter, more intuitive Siri that moves away from rigid commands and toward the fluid, conversational style of ChatGPT.

iOS 27 Hardware Cut-offs: Which iPhones Are Obsolete

The arrival of iOS 27 brings the inevitable “culling” of older hardware. While Apple generally supports devices for several years, the computational demands of “Apple Intelligence” likely require newer neural engines that older chips simply cannot handle. According to Jagran, citing reports from the Weibo tipster Instant Digital, the support line is being drawn at the iPhone 12. If these leaks hold, users of the iPhone 11 series and the second-generation iPhone SE are about to hit a software wall.

• Unsupported Devices: iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 11 Pro Max, and iPhone SE (2nd Gen).
• Supported Devices: iPhone 12 series, iPhone 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 series, and the 3rd Gen iPhone SE.

This move effectively ends the primary software lifecycle for devices launched between 2019 and 2020. While Hindustan Hindi News notes that these devices will likely continue to receive security updates for a limited time under iOS 26, they will be locked out of the AI-centric future Apple is building. For the consumer, this creates a powerful incentive to upgrade to the iPhone 17 series or newer.

Wallet Expansion and the War on Third-Party Payment Apps

Apple is not just fighting a war in AI; it is expanding its footprint in financial services. A significant portion of the WWDC 2026 reveal will focus on the Wallet app, specifically a new bill-splitting tool designed to dismantle the dominance of apps like Venmo and Splitwise. As NewsBytes reports, this new tool will allow users to divide expenses automatically, including the calculation of taxes and tips. By integrating this directly into Apple Pay and Apple Card, the company removes the friction of switching between a banking app and a third-party payment tool. The Wallet app is also evolving into a broader digital identity hub. Beyond money, iOS 27 is expected to introduce digital passes for gyms and events, further consolidating the user’s physical wallet into the iPhone’s silicon.

Parallel View and the Foldable iPhone Blueprint

Perhaps the most telling technical leak involves how Apple is handling screen real estate. For over a decade, Android devices have mastered the art of splitting screens and optimizing for wide-screen views. Apple has remained stubbornly committed to the portrait-first experience, which often leaves apps looking stretched or awkward on larger displays. This is changing with a new mechanism called “Parallel View.” According to Vietnam.vn, this system allows apps to automatically adapt to larger screens and horizontal orientations without requiring developers to redesign their entire interface. The implication here is clear: Apple is preparing for a foldable iPhone. A folding screen requires a dynamic OS that can shift from a narrow phone display to a tablet-like canvas instantly. By implementing “Parallel View” at the operating system level, Apple solves the “black bar” problem that currently plagues many apps when scaled up. This is a late arrival to a party Samsung and LG joined in 2012, but it is a necessary foundation. Without a robust way to handle split-windowing and adaptive displays, any foldable hardware Apple releases would feel like a beta product. As June 8 approaches, the narrative is no longer about incremental updates. Between the AI-driven “All Systems Glow” and the structural shifts in how apps handle screens, Apple is attempting to redefine the iPhone’s utility. The coming days will reveal if “Apple Intelligence” is a genuine leap forward or simply a polished version of what the competition has already mastered.
