Apple has decided it will avoid the issue by refusing to allow its generative AI software to be installed on a purchased iPhone. It’s a drastic choice that will be seen as a downgrade by Apple’s dedicated community and leave European iPhones at a disadvantage compared to the Android-based competition.

Shares of Apple fell nearly 3% on Monday after some analysts said delivery times for the new iPhone 16 Pro models indicated weaker-than-expected demand, possibly due to the delayed rollout of key artificial intelligence features.

Apple announced four smartphones in September 2024, including two ‘Pro’ models. We’re here to compare those two models, the Apple iPhone 16 Pro vs Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max. Unlike last year, this time around both ‘Pro’ models have the same camera setup.
