iOS 27 will significantly upgrade Siri, enabling multitasking and improved context understanding through modern AI models.
Platform lock-in is a thing, and Apple has it better than most. Apple provides an entire ecosystem of devices and cross-device functionality that most other OEMs can't match. It's not that Samsung doesn't have an ecosystem of its own, but Apple's devices are designed from the ground up to work together. They're on a level of detail that other ecosystems -- including Samsung's -- can't really compete with.
The iPhone 17 has grown just a touch this year to make room for its new, larger 6.3-inch display. It's approximately 2 mm taller and slightly thicker than the iPhone 16, although its width remains almost identical. In practice, the difference in size is barely perceptible - the new model still feels compact, balanced, and easy to handle, true to the spirit of Apple's standard iPhones.
