iPhone leaks, Apple Vision Pro gaming, and the Ferrari Luce, on the AppleInsider Podcast
You thought the Apple Vision Pro was expensive, but now you could have to choose between buying 180 of the headset, or one Ferrari Luce designed by Jony Ive.

Accessibility, AI rumors, and Google I/O, on the AppleInsider Podcast
Apple has shown off the new Accessibility features coming in iOS 27, which did nothing to stem the torrent of rumors about what we'll see in Apple Intelligence, but possibly did steal a little bit of thunder from Google's peculiar mishmash of an I/O conference, on the AppleInsider Podcast.Contact your hosts:@williamgallagher_ on Threads@WGallagher on TwitterWilliam's 58keys on YouTubeWilliam Gallagher on emailWes on BlueskyWes Hilliard on emailWes's blog HillitechSponsored by:Bartender:  Check out the new Bartender Pro at macbartender.com/appleinsiderNordStellar: Unlock your 10% discount at nordstellar.com/appleinsider with the coupon code nordappleinsider-10-NORDSTELLARLinks from the Show:Owning an Apple Home: implementing smart pet solutionsVision Pro wheelchair control & more accessibility features detailed ahead of WWDCHikawa Grip & Stand for iPhone launches globally at a new lower priceRevamped Siri may launch in beta, despite two year delayPrivacy & data security will remain central to Apple's 2026 AI pushGenmoji in iOS 27 will use what you type and what's in Photos for suggestionsImproved Writing Tools, generated wallpapers, & easier Shortcut creation rumored for iOS 27AI is making smartphones verifiably worse by designDon't expect new Macs at WWDC 2026Google I/O 2026 had nothing to say and said it badly ahead of Apple's WWDCProblematic hinge could delay the iPhone FoldApple's iPhone Fold hinge design may become industry standard Latest Apple Immersive rollout exemplifies Apple Vision Pro's entire problemSupport the show:Support the show on Patreon or Apple Podcasts to get ad-free episodes every week, access to our private Discord channel, and early release of the show!
