Watan: Apple is planning to launch a new screen that contains a silicon chip of its own production, similar to the Studio Display, which contains the A13 chip. According to a report from Bloomberg Agency, that integrating the chip into the screen will make it able to work independently of Mac personal computers, which allows it to operate as a smart screen when the computer is turned off. Some rumors have spread regarding Apple’s plans to launch new screens for some time, including that the American technology giant may be working on a 27-inch mini-LED screen, and a new, expensive version of the Apple Pro Display XDR screen. . Reports stated that the screen may support the ability to call the smart assistant “Siri” embedded in the displays themselves. It is believed that the capabilities of the new smart screens are very similar to the Standby feature that will be released in iOS 17 later this year. Standby mode allows iOS smartphones to act as smart displays when plugged in and placed horizontally. This feature is partly similar to alarm clocks, with the screen dimming to a dull red color at night when the user is asleep, adding other important information to see, and controlling the smart home directly from Standby mode. The Bloomberg report expects that Apple needs some time to introduce a smart screen to consumers, and it may launch the screen in 2024 at the earliest. The report comes in conjunction with other information published by Bloomberg that Apple plans to add some health-related features in the upcoming versions of its wireless AirPods, including the ability to determine the user’s hearing level in addition to measuring body temperature.
