Along with the end of the week, on the website of Jablíčkára, we also bring you an overview of the speculations that have appeared in connection with the Apple company in recent days. In today's summary of speculations, we will talk, for example, about the future car from the Apple workshop, but also about the iPhone 15 and the AR/VR headset.

The (Non)autonomous Apple Car

After a long hiatus, speculations started to appear again in the media, connected to the yet-to-be-presented car from Apple, i.e. the Apple Car. According to these reports, Apple still hasn't given up on its plans for the vehicle, but sources close to Bloomberg report that the electric car, codenamed Project Titan, is no longer a fully self-driving machine. According to these sources, the Apple car should be equipped with a conventional steering wheel and pedals, and will only offer autonomous vehicle functions when driving on the highway.

iPhone 15 Ultra look

The new iPhones have only been on store shelves for a few months, but there is already a lot of speculation about what their successors might look like. A well-known leaker nicknamed LeaksApplePro provided the latest information. He partially refuted recent speculations that the mentioned model should be launched in a slightly modified design with rounded corners. In this context, the aforementioned leaker stated that the company has not yet made a final decision regarding the appearance of the iPhone 15 Ultra, and that it is therefore possible that we will not see a device with rounded edges in the end. According to this source, Apple should use glass on the back of the iPhone 15 Ultra for the sake of seamless wireless charging.

AR/VR headset manufacturing issues

In the last part of our summary today, we will again focus on the upcoming headset from Apple for augmented or virtual reality. Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo commented on this very topic on his Twitter at the beginning of the week, saying that the production of this headset will most likely be postponed until the beginning of next year. According to Kuo, the cause of the delay is due to software problems.

According to Kuo, the mass production of the headset should not start until the beginning of 2023. Kuo did not specify what complications with the software could be involved. There is a certain probability that there have been difficulties related to the development of the operating system, tentatively referred to as realityOS or xrOS. However, according to Kuo, the delay in production should not have a significant effect on the planned start of sales.
