- Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stores drew crowds around the globe today as customers lined up to get the iPhone 16.
- “The first iPhone 16 buyers don’t care about the lack of Apple Intelligence,” Bloomberg chief correspondent, Mark Gurman, posted on X. “The lines this morning have been impressive. One retail employee: ‘No contest, far more demand this year.’ Another: ‘Biggest line we’ve had in a long time.’ Still early.”
- Apple Intelligence beta version will appear on the phones next month when iOS 18.1 is released.
- The iPhone 16 models were available in nearly 60 countries today. Long lines were reported at locations in New York City, Los Angeles, Australia and China, according to a report by Bloomberg.
- Apple inched up 0.5% by late afternoon trading.
