Apple Leasing, Music Price Hike, and iOS 27 Beta 4 Details

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from 9to5Mac ·

Apple is reportedly planning a new iPhone leasing program, raising Apple Music prices, and releasing iOS 27 beta 4 with changes. The company also outlined an OLED roadmap for future Macs and iPads, and next-gen Apple Pencils with replaceable batteries. Additionally, Apple and Ford partnered to integrate Apple Music into car infotainment systems.

Meridian48 take
These incremental updates show Apple's focus on recurring revenue and hardware refresh cycles, but the leasing program's impact on consumer ownership remains to be seen.
