“Los usuarios de iPhone que quieran conocer las novedades de iOS 27 ya pueden hacerlo gracias a la llegada de la beta pública.”

Infobae↗

“Apple ha puesto a disposición de los usuarios la primera versión beta pública de su iteración de sistema operativo iOS 27, que llega junto a las betas públicas de iPadOS 27, watchOS 27 y macOS 27 Golden Gate, para probar las funciones mejoradas de Apple Intelligence y el nuevo asistente renovado Siri AI, a excepción de la Unión Europea (UE).”

Elmundoes↗

“Pero quien instale la beta en España no encontrará nada de esto. Apple confirmó en junio que Siri AI no llegará a los iPhone ni a los iPad de la Unión Europea con el lanzamiento de iOS 27 e iPadOS 27, y no hay fecha prevista para que lo haga.”
