iOS 26.1 changes, Vision Pro roadmap as Apple reacts to Meta smart glasses
Manage episode 512815418 series 1708768
Benjamin and Chance cover all the new changes in beta 2 of iOS 26.1, as Apple tidies up some loose ends in the new Liquid Glass design, and (kinda) brings back Slide Over on iPad. Also, Meta’s launch of smart glasses with displays apparently prompted a change to the Vision Pro roadmap, and the F1 streaming deal is apparently nearly done.
And in Happy Hour Plus, the duo compares MagSafe power banks for the iPhone Air. Subscribe at 9to5mac.com/join.
