Apple plans to enhance satellite capabilities for iPhones and smartwatches. The company is also finalizing a deal worth nearly $1 billion to upgrade Siri with a custom Google model, while preparing to launch a low-cost MacBook to compete with Windows devices.

New iPhone models, potentially the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, may support full 5G satellite internet as early as 2026, according to a recent report. While current iPhones have limited satellite capabilities, the long-term goal is to enable direct 5G satellite internet access without additional hardware. Hints suggest that a deal between Apple and SpaceX could be possible despite past tensions.
