Siri heads for a shake-up in the 'iPhone 8'

With no home button on the new iPhone, something's got to give, and that something might just be your power button

If you are a fan of Siri, then good news: Apple's voice assistant looks like it will be getting a promotion in the near future, thanks to the combination of iOS 11 and the "D22" iPhone (the leaked model thought to be the forthcoming "iPhone Pro, 8 or X"). If you're not a fan of Siri, well, look away now - some of this isn't pretty.

For the first time, Siri will sync across devices, letting details it has picked up from your phone affect how it answers on your iPad or computer. The service is also seeing a slight refocus: Siri isn't just a voice assistant anymore, since "Siri" will also be responsible for suggesting topics in Apple News based on your web browsing, or for suggesting a calendar event if you make a booking online.
