Apple is going to launch the much-anticipated iPhone 16 series this fall.
The latest iteration of the iconic smartphone promises to bring unprecedented customization options that mark a significant departure from the traditional iPhone design philosophy.
According to Forbes, the upcoming release will be a game changer for Apple’s entire iPhone lineup. Before the new device hits the market, they will introduce iOS 18, the software that will power the iPhone 16 series.
Mark Gurman, a prominent iPhone analyst from Bloomberg, gave an insight into the new features, showing a radically redesigned home screen that offers a wide range of customization options.
“The iPhone’s home screen will be very different,” Gurman said. It will allow users to change the color of the app icon and place it where they want.
For example, you can make all your social icons blue or finance-related icons green, instead of the default set that has been in place since the early days of 2007.”
This flexibility in placing app icons and customizing colors is expected to allow users to customize their devices like never before.
Gurman said that this change will mean that each iPhone will be completely different from the current model, giving users the freedom to customize their device for their specific needs and preferences.
The official launch event, scheduled for June 10, is expected to be heavily focused on artificial intelligence (AI). Reports suggest that Apple is working on integrating AI performance into its feature set and may introduce AI-generated emojis.
Explaining this development, Gurman said, “One differentiating feature will bring creative AI to emotions. The company is developing software that can create custom emojis on the fly based on the type of user.
This means that Apple will suddenly have a new emoji at any time, apart from the catalog of options that Apple currently offers on the iPhone and other devices. “
This innovative approach to emojis, powered by creative AI, can provide users with a dynamic and personalized communication experience, further enhancing the appeal of the new iPhone 16 series.
