With Apple’s iPhone Air, iPhone 17 Pro, AirPods Pro 3, and Apple Watch 11 now unveiled, what does this mean for the future of phones and wearable tech? And does the incredible AI of Google Pixel still blow Siri out of the water?


In this episode, Chris and Yaniv delve into Apple’s newest product lineup and what it reveals about the company’s long-term strategy, particularly in the current AI-driven climate. They also discuss both the IPO market heating back up and the recent White House tech dinner, the implications both of these have on the tech industry, and the key takeaways for you as a founder.



In this episode, you will:

  • Unpack Apple’s biggest announcements, from the ultra-thin iPhone Air to the next iterative iPhone 17
  • Explore the hidden strategy behind AirPods Pro 3’s real-time translation and heart-rate monitoring features
  • Learn why Apple Watch 11’s new health functions could reshape the wearable market
  • Analyze why Apple’s generative AI gap matters and how it compares with Google’s approach
  • Understand how the authenticity economy is changing hiring, recruiting, and founder strategy
  • Gain insight into the rebounding IPO market and what it signals for startup liquidity
