Why iPhone Duo could change how we use AI
Notas del episodio
Apple's first foldable iPhone makes the case that a bigger screen is better for nearly everything in the AI era. Its new Apple Watch features raise a harder question: how much of our conversations should AI remember?
In this special episode of The Deep View Conversations, we record from Apple's campus in California following its September 2026 event to unpack the iPhone Duo, the new Audio Intelligence features in Apple Watch, and what Apple's latest devices mean for AI.
We share our first hands-on impressions of the Duo, explain why foldables are becoming more useful for AI agents and multitasking, and examine the price and hardware compromises that come with Apple's new form factor. We also debate Live Rewind and Siri Recap, two new Apple Watch features coming in beta later this year. We disagree on which feature we would feel more comfortable using, opening up a broader discussion about privacy, trust, and staying present.
The conversation also covers:
• How the iPhone Duo compares with foldables from Google and Samsung
• Why Apple's software experience is the Duo's biggest advantage
• Camera, battery, durability, and Touch ID tradeoffs
• Whether foldables will eventually become the default iPhone
• Siri AI, iOS 27, and Apple's approach to other smart features without AI washing
• The social questions surrounding AI-generated conversation summaries
• The iPhone 18 Pro's camera upgrades and Apple's computational photography
• Apple silicon, the A20 Pro, and the possibilities of running AI models locally on a phone
If you're following the future of AI in phones and wearables, this conversation connects Apple's announcements to the ways people will actually use them, along with the questions that still need answers.
