Apple rolled out its next OS generation at WWDC, unveiling iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, watchOS 27 and visionOS 27. The headline feature is a Siri AI app built on Google’s Gemini models, running partly on‑device and tapping Apple’s Private Cloud Compute. Developers can start testing today, with a public beta slated for month. The update also adds cross‑device handoff and refined privacy controls.

Samsung’s Galaxy S27 (SM‑S952) surfaced in the GSMA IMEI registry, confirming the handset ahead of a formal reveal. Xiaomi rolled out the 17T series in China, raising the battery to 7,000 mAh versus the 6,500 mAh cell abroad. OnePlus introduced the Turbo 6X and 6X Pro, the Pro featuring an 8,000 mAh pack, 80 W charge, a 6.78‑inch 1.5K 144 Hz AMOLED and a Dimensity 7400 Super chipset.

Google trimmed its AI subscription to $5 while doubling cloud storage to 400 GB, a move that pressures competitors on price. Apple also upgraded Apple Intelligence, tightening integration across native apps and leveraging the new Siri AI. The week’s announcements signal a shift toward on‑device AI processing and aggressive pricing, reshaping how consumers evaluate flagship phones and smart‑device ecosystems.
