Apple plans to equip the iPhone 16 with a new microphone that will improve the performance of the Siri voice assistant. In this respect reports The MacRumors publication quotes a well-known insider and analyst at TF International Securities Ming-Chi Kuo.
Kuo says Apple is placing great emphasis on its own generative AI features, such as GPT in the iPhone 16. This will connect to the Siri voice assistant. To make Siri recognize commands better, Apple decided to update the microphones of future smartphones.
The new microphone will better filter people’s voices from extraneous sounds. According to Kuo, this feature will “significantly improve the Siri experience.” The new microphone will also receive more reliable protection against moisture and dust.
Artificial intelligence-supported features will be an important feature of the iPhone 16. Kuo does not rule out that some smart features will become exclusive to Apple smartphones in 2024 due to hardware differences.
AAC and Goertek will be the main microphone suppliers for the iPhone 16. Kuo believes that the partnership with Apple will bring them great profits.
The insider added: “The average microphone price for each iPhone 16 will be at least 100-150% higher than the microphones for the iPhone 15. As a result, AAC and Goertek’s revenues are expected to increase significantly due to Apple’s investment in AI .” .
