According to Mark Gurman, it is reported that Apple will initiate the practice of pre-installing the most current iPhone software before the devices are sold through Apple retail outlets.
Typically, iPhone models necessitate an update once they are unboxed by customers, as the latest software might not be accessible at the time of packaging.
Apple To Pre-install Latest Software on iPhones Before Selling Them
Apple is considering pre-loading the most recent software onto iPhones before they are sold, a move designed to optimize the performance of newly purchased devices. However, it remains uncertain if Apple will extend this service to its affiliated retail partners.
In his recent weekly newsletter, Gurman disclosed that Apple is developing a novel system to ensure that all iPhone models are updated to the latest available software prior to sale. This process is anticipated to occur while the devices are still securely packaged.
Apple plans to create a specialized pad-like device on which an iPhone box can be placed. The iPhone contained within the box would then be updated to the most up-to-date software.
How Does The New System Work?
The envisaged system at Apple has the capability to wirelessly activate the iPhone in question, update its software, and power it off, all while the device remains packaged. Gurman speculates that Apple is striving to introduce this technology in its official retail outlets by the conclusion of this year. It remains unclear if Apple will offer this feature to its partner retail stores.
Frequently, customers lack awareness of the software updates available for their smartphones, leading them to overlook the potential performance enhancements achievable through the latest software. This novel technology aims to ensure that all users have an optimal user experience with their iPhones. Current iPhone users can verify if they possess the latest software update by navigating to Settings > General > Software Update and following the on-screen instructions.
Recently, Apple unveiled its iPhone 15 series, comprising the iPhone 15 base model, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max. In India, the starting price for the base model is Rs. 79,990.
