IT Home reported on November 4 that Apple pushed the first iOS 27.3 developer preview to iPhones early this morning, bringing “Apple Intelligence & Siri” to users of mainland China models as promised.
IT Home tried the first batch of core Apple Intelligence features available on mainland China models as soon as they launched and has compiled the highlights below:
The most noticeable change is that pressing and holding the power button to summon Siri now brings up a ring of animated lights around the screen.
Live Translation has been integrated into Messages, FaceTime calls and the Phone app, allowing users to get translations during calls and in messages. For face-to-face conversations, Live Translation will also extend to AirPods (which must have the latest firmware installed and be paired with an iPhone with Apple Intelligence enabled). With compatible earbuds, users can get real-time translations during conversations across languages.
The feature has specific device requirements: users need an iPhone 16 or later model, iPhone Duo, iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max, or iPhone Air, and must set Siri and the device language to English or Simplified Chinese. AirPods models that support Live Translation include AirPods 5, AirPods 4 (with Active Noise Cancellation), AirPods Pro 2 and later models, and AirPods Max 2.
Writing Tools can help users rewrite, proofread and summarize text they enter.
Visual Intelligence lets users instantly learn about objects and places around them through the iPhone camera. Under “Settings > Camera > Camera Control > Launch Camera,” users can set Accessibility Live Recognition as a quick-launch option. It supports real-time spoken descriptions and offers features including Scene, Point and Speak, Text, and Document Capture.
The Photos app now includes a Clean Up tool. Users can tap, brush over or circle an object to remove it. A feature plug-in must be downloaded the first time it is used.
Genmoji is now available in apps including Messages, supporting a variety of combinations and personalized creations. Users can use Genmoji just like emoji. They can select multiple emoji to combine into a new one or generate one from a text description.
Notification summaries have also arrived on mainland China iPhones. Apple Intelligence can generate summaries of received notifications for quick review, with three categories available: News & Entertainment, Communication & Social, and All Other Apps. Priority Notifications place the most urgent items at the top of notifications so users can immediately see matters that may need attention.
In addition, a Qwen extension appears under “Apple Intelligence & Siri.” The iPhone can use Qwen to help write text, create images and answer questions. Users need to sign in to a Qwen account the first time they use it.
After enabling Qwen, users can ask it to create text in a text box (including in third-party apps such as WeChat). By describing what they need, they can generate an entire conversation.
