The 9 most plausible rumors about the new iPhones

As it stated in iPhone X gets an updateLast year's iPhone X is rumored to get an "S" update, which would mark the first such update since the iPhone 6S in 2015. Expect the iPhone XS to be more of an enhancement of the X, not a dramatic redesign. New colorsThe long-rumored gold model for the iPhone X seems like it'll become a reality for the iPhone XS and XS Max this year, according to the seemingly legitimate leak obtained by 9to5Mac. Practically confirmed for the XS / XS Max. And with the iPhone XS Max and its 6.5-inch screen that's approaching tablet size, it's not unreasonable to think Apple might do it.

This might be how Apple ditches the notch on its new iPhones

That hole would allow the selfie camera to have an unobstructed view without the need for a notch. But Samsung isn't the only company working on getting rid of the notch. At the same time, Apple stresses the importance of drilling the holes without damaging the various layers of the screen. And considering that Apple went with a notch design for all recent iPhone versions seems to suggest that the technology behind drilling holes into screens needs to be further refined before Apple is willing to adopt it. Of note, the world's top Apple insider reported last year that Apple might remove the notch from its iPhone designs as soon as next year.

'Siri, I'm getting pulled over': A new shortcut for iPhones can automatically record the police

As it stated in But Robert Petersen of Arizona has developed a more serious shortcut: It's called Police, and it monitors police interactions so you have a record of what happened. Once the shortcut is installed and configured, you just have to say, for example, "Hey Siri, I'm getting pulled over." It also sends a quick text to a predetermined contact to tell them you've been pulled over, and it starts recording using the iPhone's front-facing camera. While he didn't base the shortcut on existing apps, Petersen said he was inspired by projects by digital-rights groups like the Electronic Frontier Foundation. If you're interested in making your own shortcuts, Petersen has some advice.
