The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max will come with a new wireless connectivity protocol called the Thread radio.
The protocol could signal Apple is moving away from relying solely on Bluetooth for connecting to peripherals like the Apple Watch .
The iPhone could be used as a Thread border router for smart home smart home devices.
Apple 's iPhone 15 Pro is the most smart home-friendly smartphone, at least until Google’s Pixel event next month .
A popular theory in my X (formerly Twitter ) feed after the Apple event was that Thread is in the iPhone Pro line more or less as a freebie.
If that's indeed the case, it's likely we’ll see Thread trickle down through the iPhone line slowly.
