Tim Cook appeared on the Jimmy Falon show to promote the new iPhone 16 line-up and Apple Intelligence. He appeared in a calm and causal way that we usually don’t see him in other interviews and media appearances.

The skit starts with Jimmy Fallon talking about how he was the first in line at the Fifth Avenue Apple Store to get the new iPhone 16, and how he had a “surprise” run-in with Tim Cook. He is shown as the ultimate Apple fan as he is seen wearing the Apple Vision Pro while standing in line for his iPhone 16.

Fallon hilariously mistakes Tim Cook as a virtual replica since he’s wearing the Apple Vision Pro. Once he realizes that he is the real deal, he’s asked to go on a walk with the Apple CEO.

They both go on a walk in NYC, through a park, and on their way they talk about the new iPhone 16, upcoming Apple Intelligence features, and more. Fallon even asks how long has Cook worked at Apple, and whether he always thought he could become the CEO.

While they aren’t shown actually buying a hotdog, Fallon accurately guesses the topping that Cook likes on his hotdogs which is mustard.

The video is less than 5 minutes long but it’s a very wholesome albeit highly scripted perspective of Tim Cook. Check out the complete video below:

iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro are available for purchase now, while some Apple Intelligence features are currently in beta testing with iOS 18.1 build. They will start shipping soon with the public release of iOS 18.1 software update for iPhone. Apple Intelligence is expected to complete roll-out with the release of iOS 18.4 early next year, which will ship with new Siri features like personal context, on-screen awareness, actions in and across apps, and more.
