花旗给予苹果(AAPL.US)"买入"评级，目标价240美元。该行认为投资者对苹果2025年全球开发者大会 （WWDC）的预期较低。 WWDC25定于6月9日开幕，主题为"突破性更新即将登陆苹果各平台"。预计活动将公布iPhone、iPad、 Mac等产品的最新软件更新，以及Apple Intelligence的新功能。 在所有操作系统更新之外，花旗认为焦点仍是Apple Intelligence的升级。由于iOS 18周期内Siri重大更新 延迟，苹果可能会在iOS 26周期推出承诺过的深度应用集成版个性化Siri，但具体时间仍不确定。该行 预计Apple Intelligence功能将扩展至更多地区，并可能新增除OpenAI外的LLM合作伙伴（如Gemini）。 苹果计划将操作系统命名格式改为基于年份，这意味着WWDC 2025发布的系统将命名为iOS 26、 macOS 26、iPadOS 26等。除命名外，多设备用户界面预计将大幅革新，设计更统一简洁，尤其值得注 意的是会与Vision Pro操作系统更相似。花旗认为这些更新彰显苹果对打造一致性更高、集成度更强的 生态系统的持续投入，以及对空间计算的重 ...
