Crumbd @crumbd.com · 23/09/2026

👓 Apple is entering the AI glasses race — and the timing is getting interesting. Global AI-glasses shipments surged 263% YoY in H1 2026, with display-less devices making up 96% of the market.

Crumbd @crumbd.com · 23/09/2026

The extra data is processed inside Apple’s hardware-isolated Secure Exclave, keeping it separated from iOS and apps. The goal? A Face ID system that remains fast and secure despite the new under-display hardware.

100

Crumbd @crumbd.com · 23/09/2026

🔐 Your iPhone 18 Pro is doing more behind the scenes than you might think. Apple has added supplemental image data to Face ID authentication, working alongside depth and infrared sensing to maintain performance with parts of the Face ID system now hidden under the display.

Would you trust your iPhone to detect a snatching automatically? 👀 #Apple #iPhone #iOS27

000

Crumbd @crumbd.com · 23/09/2026

If multiple signals point to a snatching, the iPhone could lock itself and activate Stolen Device Protection. The catch? Apple hasn’t confirmed when the feature will launch—or if it will ship at all. The technology is reportedly still being developed in iOS 27.2.

100

Crumbd @crumbd.com · 23/09/2026

Apple is reportedly still developing an “AutoLock” security feature that could detect when an iPhone is suddenly grabbed and automatically lock it. The system may use the iPhone’s gyroscope, accelerometer, network connection and even a paired Apple Watch to identify a possible theft.

Crumbd @crumbd.com · 22/09/2026

🚨 Apple’s iPhone 20 Pro could be getting a major display makeover! A new leak claims the 2027 Pro could feature a 6.41-inch display, while the Pro Max may stretch to 6.96 inches — with a “borderless quad-curved” design wrapping the screen around all four edges. 📱

100

Crumbd @crumbd.com · 22/09/2026

It also gets Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, 2.5Gb Ethernet and dramatically faster SSD speeds. The catch? The starting price jumps to $899, up from $599 for the M4 at launch.

Crumbd @crumbd.com · 21/09/2026

❄️ Inside, the A20 Pro connects to a much larger vapor chamber, giving Apple’s latest Pro models a redesigned cooling architecture. But there’s a catch. iFixit says the plastic display frame cracked or broke on 3 of the 4 iPhone 18 Pro units it opened.

101

Crumbd @crumbd.com · 21/09/2026

If that mechanism fails, repairing the aperture itself could be extremely difficult, potentially requiring replacement of the entire main camera module. 📸 iFixit also discovered how Apple moved the Face ID infrared camera beneath the display, helping shrink the Dynamic Island.
