The new smartphone is connected to iCloud, and saves media – synchronising content to the user’s other Apple devices. This means that people will no longer be limited by the memory of their iPhone.
This is a highly intuitive development by Apple. Giving a mobile handset the ability to understand spoken words creates an almost seamless interface. For more about intuitive interfaces, read our Intuitive Futures macro trend.
