I think iPhone 15 and 15 Plus users might feel a bit like suckers. First of all, there’s the new M4 chipset in the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro, and the 24-inch iMac is also expected to be announced. Why am I suddenly recording? Today is Tech Week, and I have a variety of news for you, including the iPhone call recording feature that everyone has been eagerly waiting for, as well as news about Apple's new products. So, let's dive into the details.

The first piece of news is about iPhone call recording. This feature was supported in the beta version, but it hasn't been officially released yet. However, it is expected to be updated within this year. The call recording function is one of the features of Apple Intelligence that you might be familiar with. It not only allows for call recording but also supports converting the call content into text. The text conversion will likely be available starting with English and will gradually expand to other languages. Anyway, the iPhone itself...

From now on, you will be able to utilize these features. Those who have watched the iOS 18.1 beta video we posted earlier may already know that call recording works very well. In fact, it is not much different from the call recording feature available on Galaxy devices. One disappointing aspect, however, is that call recording is announced. In the case of the iPhone, when you press the call recording button, a message is sent to the other party informing them that the call is being recorded. With this announcement, it's understandable that many people feel uncomfortable about making calls. Personally, if I were on a call and suddenly heard such a message, I would first think, Why is it being recorded all of a sudden? This kind of announcement is certainly not convenient. In our country, since recording a call with the consent of both parties is not illegal, it raises some concerns.

There were expectations that legal entities could apply it differently, but unfortunately, Apple has drawn a line, stating that it will be applied uniformly worldwide. As a result, in our country, the notification for call recording will remain the same. Anyway, this call recording feature is expected to be available from the iOS 18.1 regular update. To give you a preview of how to use it, when you are on a call, you will see a new icon in the top left corner of the screen. Clicking on it will start the call recording immediately, at which point a message will inform you that the call is being recorded. In Korea, the message will announce that the call content is being recorded to the other party. While recording, an indicator will appear in the middle of the screen. If you want to stop the recording, you can press the stop button here, and the recording will automatically stop when the call ends.

In the case of call recording, it can be checked in the memo app. I think there are many people who need the call recording feature for work, and in daily life, this tool often plays a very important role. In fact, when it was first announced that this feature would be added, there were quite a few people who thought, Now I can switch from Galaxy to iPhone. However, since there is a notification that call recording will be announced, I feel it might be a bit ambiguous. Honestly, I was a Galaxy user, and I don't think I would have switched. Anyway, when the iPhone call recording feature is officially released, I will let you know in detail. Last month, the iPhone 16 series was released, along with the Apple Watch 10 and AirPods 4th generation. So now, Apple’s...

Many people may think that new products have come to an end and that there will be no more releases. However, there is a very high possibility that other new Apple products will be launched this month. According to recent industry reports, Apple is expected to hold an October event to unveil new iPads and Macs. Of course, this October event is not something Apple does every year, but looking back at the past five years, Apple has held October events a total of four times. Last year, for instance, an event was held on October 30. Therefore, many are predicting that this year will follow a similar trend. To briefly inform you about the products that are likely to be unveiled, there is the new MacBook Pro featuring the M4 chipset in 14-inch and 16-inch models, as well as a more compact Mac mini and a 24-inch iMac.

Here it is. After three years, the iPad Mini 7th generation is finally being renewed, and I think there are many people who have been waiting for this. In the case of the iPad Mini, it seems that the jelly scroll issue, which has been pointed out for a while, will be improved. Additionally, the chipset is expected to be significantly upgraded. There were discussions about whether the latest A18 or the M1 chipset would be included, but currently, the A17 Pro seems to be the most likely option. This chipset is the same one used in the iPhone 15 Pro, which is indeed a very good chipset. However, it seems that mobile products released from now on will need to support Apple’s latest technologies, so I think the minimum requirement will be the A17 Pro. Regardless of which chipset is used, it would be reasonable to expect a substantial performance upgrade. This applies to the new MacBook and the iPad Mini as well.

If you are thinking about it, watching this October might be a good way to go. Next, we have a product that many people are looking forward to: the cost-effective iPhone, the iPhone SE 4th generation. According to recent reports from DigiTimes, Apple has begun supplying OLED displays for the iPhone SE, with the panel being supplied by the Chinese company BOE. In fact, for the iPhone 16 series, most of the panels are being produced by Samsung Display and LG Display. Even though they are all OLED panels, there might be slight differences in technology. Still, since this is the first upgrade from the existing LCD panels to OLED, we can consider this a positive change. The iPhone SE 4th generation is expected to be released early next year, similar to the previous SE models, which were launched in March or April. It is anticipated to be around the same time frame. As for the design...

The case is said to be similar to the iPhone 14, with the rear camera remaining a single lens, just like before. The display will feature a 6.1-inch OLED screen with a notch, and it is expected to support Face ID. The important point here is that there is a high possibility of the A18 chipset being included. This is the most recent chipset that will be used in the iPhone 16, and it is said to support Apple Intelligence. If this happens, the SE4 will also be able to record calls. If Apple Intelligence is indeed included, it might make the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus users feel a bit cheated. After all, the SE is essentially a budget-friendly product, while the iPhone 15 is a flagship device. People who buy flagship products spend a lot of money, and it wouldn't make sense for a budget-friendly product to have better features. I think that’s just not right.

If there are users of the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus, they might be quite upset. Anyway, it's important to know how much the SE 4th generation will cost. Although the exact price hasn't been revealed yet, various reports suggest that it will be priced slightly higher than the current SE 3rd generation. It is expected to be around the high 700,000 won range. This amount may be burdensome for some, but even at this price point, it will still be much cheaper than the regular iPhones. I believe it offers tremendous value for money within the iPhone lineup. Also, I mentioned earlier that it might support Apple Intelligence. Looking back at the SE 3rd generation, it had an old design but was equipped with the latest chipset. Given this past precedent, we can expect that the new SE will likely be equipped with a high-performance chipset.

What do you all think? Please leave your comments below. Today, we talked about iPhone call recording and Apple's new products. Of course, it would be great if the iPhone call recording feature comes out, but I wonder if we will get used to that fact. Anyway, I think we will have to wait and see how it works once it is released. If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments below. This has been Eom Jun. Take care!
