In just a few weeks (the latest rumor says September 10), Apple is expected to announce new models of the iPhone and Apple Watch. In this week's episode of the In the News podcast, Brett Burney and I gave you some advice that will be helpful if you are thinking of upgrading to the new versions. First, we discuss the double tap gesture available on the newest Apple Watch models and how it will soon be even better. Second, we discuss why you should consider getting an iPhone that has a 5x zoom lens, which is currently only available on the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. Third, we discuss one of the Apple Intelligence features expected to debut later this year, but only if you have one of the newest iPhones: the ability to tell the Photos app what kind of Memories movie to make based upon your pictures. Fourth, we discuss AppleCare+, which is always a consideration when you get a new device. We also discuss CarPlay, a possible future improvement to the Apple Vision Pro, and much more.
In our Where Y'At? segment, we discuss using an AirPod to catch a mail bandit.
In our In the Know segment, Brett shares a tip for using the app launcher on the Apple Watch, and I provide a tip on what type of battery life you can expect if you get a new Apple Watch this Fall.
