Apple, the company that has built its entire identity around doing everything in-house, is about to hand over the keys to Siri's future to its biggest competitor. That's right: Apple is preparing to launch a completely redesigned Siri in early 2026, and this time, it won't be powered by Apple's own technology alone; it will lean heavily on Google's Gemini AI model.

Let me be clear: if you own an iPhone and you have been waiting for Siri to actually get smart, Amazon just handed you a lifeline.

Apple's rumored iPad mini 8 might ditch speaker holes entirely. Recent reports point to vibration-based speakers, according to Bloomberg, which would make it unique among Apple products if adopted.
