Apple held its annual Worldwide Developer’s Conference yesterday at the McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, California. This is one of the most awaited three-day conferences where Apple unveils its latest products with the keynote on the first day. This year’s keynote was also filled with announcements and some major upgrades.
If you missed out on the announcements, here are the highlights of the keynote address. The iOS 11 will be unveiled this fall but what can be expected is a giant leap that will make the Apple experience better than before. Both the iPhone and the iPad will get a revamp when iOS 11 is officially launched. Apple also upgraded their Apple TV and WatchOS4. WatchOS4 will now also have Siri intended to work as a personal assistant on your wrist.
The iPad Pro will now be available in a new size. The 10.5-inch tablet will feature incredible new cameras and powerful AX10 Fusion chips. iMac is going to have better storage capacity, faster processing systems, higher retina display along with a better VRAM. All MacBook Pro models will also receive software upgrades for a smoother experience.
The one announcement that stole the show was their newly launched voice enabled speaker that will be powered by the Apple assistant Siri. Joining the race a little late, Apple’s all new HomePod will be able to answer questions and responds to request for information with better sound quality. HomePod is priced higher than its competitors, Google Homeand Amazon Echo. HomePod also provides an alternative to other high-end speakers such as from Bose and Sonos.
Apple SVP Craig Federighi took the stage to give a glimpse at the next version of macOS: High Sierra. The new macOS will have better and enhanced privacy controls for Safari, more sophisticated editing tools in the Photo apps, and most importantly VR Support. VR makes its debut on iMac, with the ability to edit 360° videos in apps like Final Cut Pro and create cutting edge 3D VR content.

Apple is set to relocate all assembly of iPhones destined for the US market from China to India by the end of 2026, marking its biggest manufacturing shift in decades. The move is driven by escalating US-China trade tensions and steep tariffs—up to 145% on Chinese imports—making Chinese assembly increasingly costly for Apple. Although some smartphone imports are temporarily exempt, a 20% duty still applies to Chinese-made iPhones entering the US.
India, in contrast, offers a more favorable trade environment, with a paused 26% reciprocal tariff and ongoing negotiations for a bilateral trade deal with the US that could shield Indian exports from future levies. Apple plans to more than double its current iPhone output in India, aiming to assemble over 60 million units annually for the US market. The company already produces about 25% of its global iPhones in India, working with partners like Foxconn, Tata Electronics, and Pegatron.
This shift is part of Apple’s broader strategy to diversify its supply chain and reduce reliance on China amid geopolitical risks. However, the transition’s success will depend on how quickly India can scale up its manufacturing capabilities and the outcome of ongoing trade negotiations.
PhonePe’s PINCODE app has launched a 24×7 online medicine delivery service in Bangalore, Mumbai, and Pune, promising delivery of both prescription and over-the-counter medicines within 10 minutes from nearby local medical shops. Unlike conventional e-pharmacies that use dark stores, PINCODE partners exclusively with neighborhood pharmacies, enabling faster deliveries and supporting local businesses in the digital economy.
Customers without prescriptions can select a “no prescription” option when ordering; a qualified doctor then provides a free teleconsultation and issues a digital prescription compliant with telemedicine guidelines, ensuring seamless access to medicines. The app offers competitive pricing by passing discounts from local pharmacies directly to customers and charges no delivery fees.
PINCODE’s hyperlocal model enhances healthcare accessibility and convenience while empowering local pharmacies, helping them remain integral to their communities and stimulating local economic growth. Launched in 2023, the app focuses on quick commerce with an emphasis on speed, reliability, and supporting local sellers.
In summary, PhonePe’s PINCODE app is transforming medicine delivery in major Indian cities by combining ultra-fast 10-minute delivery, free doctor consultations, and a hyperlocal sourcing model that benefits both consumers and neighborhood pharmacies.
