Get a look at the real-time translation the new AirPods Pro 3 bring to your ears, which you can prompt through a gesture. Powered by Apple Intelligence, it uses noise cancellation to reduce the volume of the speaker to elevate the provided translation to the user. It came as one of several updates to the newly revealed AirPods Pro 3, which made their debut at Apple's iPhone 17 launch event.

The biggest feature of the update is a new design language that Apple calls Liquid Glass. The new design adds a glassy sheen to many different parts of the operating system, and things like buttons and search bars have a translucency that lets some elements of what's under them show through. Liquid Glass isn't just limited to iOS 26: it's also coming to iPadOS 26, macOS Tahoe 26, watchOS 26, and tvOS 26.

Bloomberg tells us that the foldable iPhone (V68, apparently) will be similar in look to Samsung's Z-Fold smartphones, opening out into a small tablet. The latest report claims it will have four cameras (so you can FaceTime in any configuration), will use an eSIM for network connectivity, and might use Touch ID rather than Face ID. The device, which will probably also use an Apple modem, is now scheduled for introduction in Fall 2026.

The update introduces Apple Intelligence, significantly impacting frontend development and UX design by enhancing user experience through intelligent recommendations and streamlined workflows.

Apple's iPhone 16e combines impressive hardware and software capabilities, making high-end features accessible in an affordable package compared to other iPhone models.

The design is one of risk minimization. We want to minimize the value of compromising the system.

While we disagree with the NAD's findings related to features that are available to users now, we appreciate the opportunity to work with them and will follow their recommendations.
