Amazon Leo is the online retailer’s satellite internet access network, currently being tested with selected customers to deliver efficiency and satisfaction with speeds of 1Gbps.

According to Amazon, this connection will be available “virtually anywhere thanks to its new antennas, notably the Leo Ultra.” The company explains that the network already has “more than 150 satellites in orbit to offer the Amazon Leo service in areas where fiber optic access is unavailable.”

The trial is being conducted with selected customers across its enterprise range, as a preliminary step to the planned commercial rollout in 2026. It features three antenna models for different access speeds.

In this regard, “the Amazon Leo Ultra antenna offers a flat-screen design with high performance, enabling download speeds of up to 1 Gbps and upload speeds of up to 400 Mbps. This makes it the fastest antenna currently available.” The Leo Pro model has download speeds of up to 400 Mbps, and the Leo Nano, a tiny antenna, sacrifices some speed, reaching 100 Mbps.

These antennas incorporate a “proprietary chip designed by Amazon Leo, as well as proprietary RF technologies that maximize performance while reducing latency.” The company will offer network management tools and end-to-end encryption for enhanced security in enterprise environments; direct communication with AWS as well as other cloud and local networks.

The revamped version of Apple’s virtual assistant, Siri, is in testing. According to details published by Bloomberg, the tool can control third-party apps such as Uber, AllTrails, Threads, Temu, Amazon, YouTube, Facebook, and WhatsApp without touching the device’s screen.

With this move, the virtual assistant could go from “being a limited resource to becoming a true voice control tool, both in its own apps and in external services.”

How will Siri be able to help users? It is known that “it will be able to request an Uber ride, edit and send a photo, or add a product to the cart in an online store” using spoken commands.

The company relies on two fundamental pillars: Apple Intelligence and the improved App Intents system, aiming for Siri to “not only understand what the user wants, but also who is asking for it and under what circumstances.”

This change will not only affect the iPhone; customers with iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro will also be able to enjoy the functionality. Regarding security, “the company is considering restricting certain functions in banking or health apps to avoid errors that could have critical consequences.”

Furthermore, Apple has said that the rollout of the new version “will be gradual, and not all countries will receive the update at the same time. In the United States, the release is planned for spring 2026, possibly alongside iOS 26.4, iPadOS 26.4, macOS 26.4, and VisionOS 26.4. This means that most users will have to wait more than a year to experience this transformation.”
