Apple Ring, iOS betas, and iPhone 17 camera rumors, on the AppleInsider Podcast
Twenty years of rumors about an Apple Ring have to lead somewhere soon, and in the meantime, we have more betas to try, and more iPhone 17 rumors to explore.
Render of a possible Apple Ring
Clearly, we're not satisfied with the Apple Vision Pro finally being available -- and now outside the US too -- after all these years of speculation. We want the next heavily speculated device to hurry up, we want the Apple Ring. If you're wondering quite what anyone would use an Apple Ring for, you may possible be asking a sensible question there.
But alongside what we've finally got with the Apple Vision Pro and what we still want with the Apple Ring, there is what we have got right now. The latest betas of iOS 18, macOS Sequoia, and more, are out and there is much to like -- even if some of it is really tiny, like the small but excellent improvement to iPhone Mirroring.
