This week on the Cult of Mac podcast: New Apple CEO John Ternus steps into his role with a wealth of hardware experience and a supremely promising product pipeline. And he’ll lead his first Apple event next week.
What will he hit us with during the Surprise and Shine event? And how will he change Apple going forward? There’s lots to ponder.
Also on the Cult of Mac podcast:
- Will the iPhone 18 Pro upgrades be big enough to lure us into upgrading? It looks increasingly unlikely.
- Rumors indicate the first folding iPhone won’t get a certain accessory that practically nobody wanted, but will get a feature that almost everybody loves. So that’s a win.
- What to expect from the next Apple Watch models, which should arrive next week as well.
