“Glowtime” might not just be hinting at Apple Intelligence, here’s what you can expect

After months of speculation and rumors, including a fake Apple Event invite, the iPhone 16 launch is almost upon us. But when Apple unveiled the name of its upcoming event — Glowtime — the rumor train went full steam ahead once again. Now we’ve got some more information from someone who’s probably on to something: Bloomberg’s Apple insider Mark Gurman.

So, what do we know is most likely going to be a major focus at Glowtime? Apple Intelligence. Not only is it the newest thing that Apple is working on, the Glowtime logo heavily resembles the color scheme of Apple Intelligence’s promo materials. It also looks somewhat similar to the new AI interface Apple is working on.

There’s also the matter of AI being the only reason to get an iPhone 16 for many people, hence it probably being a big talking point during the event. The iPhone 16 is only marginally better than the iPhone 15, no huge jumps in performance to get excited about here.

In fact, the EU is getting an almost completely different phone, which is why I’ve called this the most fragmented iPhone launch in history. EU iPhone users will get features completely alien to other regions but will not be getting Apple Intelligence.
