The big Apple event is less than a week away, but the rumours aren't going away. On September 7, the Cupertino-based company will host its "Far out" event, during which it is anticipated to make some significant announcements on stage including new iPhones, Apple watches, and updated Airpods Pro.
At its campus in Cupertino, Apple will most likely have an in-person event at the Steve Jobs Theater. The event will begin at 10:30 p.m. India time, and it will also be broadcast live on YouTube, the Apple website, and the Apple TV app.
A number of new iPhones in various sizes and colours are anticipated. There may possibly be a purple iPhone model this year which is something to look forward to. According to reports, the iPhone 14 series has better cameras, a bigger sensor, quicker charging, and satellite communication. This year, the phones might do away with the notch in favour of a camera cutout for facial IDs.
Three new Apple watches are reportedly being unveiled at the event by Apple. It's anticipated that these smartwatches will all have new processors. The rumoured Airpods Pro 2 could bring an upgrade to the Airpods Pro 1, which were introduced approximately three years ago. The redesigned Airpods this year should offer improved noise cancellation, longer battery life, and other improvements. This year, Apple will release a number of new items. The event's anticipated major highlights are listed below.
iPhone 14 Pro series: This year's star of the show is undoubtedly the iPhone 14 lineup. The ordinary iPhone 14, the iPhone 14 Pro, and the iPhone 14 Pro Max are among the four new iPhone models that Apple is anticipated to introduce under its new series. A 6.1-inch iPhone 14, a 6.7-inch iPhone 14, a 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro, and a 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max are all likely to be included with the iPhone 14. This year, Apple might discontinue the iPhone Mini.
The upcoming iPhone 14 series might do away with the notch in favour of a hole-punch selfie camera and a pill-shaped Face ID cutout. Additionally, there are rumours that Apple may give the Pro models an always-on mode for the display this year, making them the first iPhones to have this capability. The cameras are anticipated to improve, with the Pro models allegedly sporting a 48MP sensor. According to reports, each of the four iPhone 14 versions has a selfie camera with autofocus.
According to rumours, the Pro 14 will start with a 256GB storage option and a speedier A16 Bionic CPU. Additionally, there are rumours that Apple may increase the price of the Pro and Pro Max models by up to USD100. Other rumours have suggested that the new iPhones will also be available in Silver, Graphite, Gold, and Blue colours in addition to the purple shade.
Apple Watch Series 8 rumours: Apple is rumoured to release three new smartwatches this year, but all eyes may be on its rugged model, which has been garnering attention for its alleged design and construction. This new model, also known as the Apple Watch Pro or Apple Watch Explorer Edition, is claimed to include a large 47mm case size, a larger battery, and a robust flat display that is shatterproof. According to reports, this watch is intended for extreme sports enthusiasts.
Apple Watch Series 8 could include a temperature sensor that, according to rumours, can detect fevers this year. The upcoming Apple watches are also anticipated to include other health tracking functions including a sleep tracker, heart rate monitor, diabetes monitor, and more.
Apple Airpods Pro 2: The company is also expected to unveil its new Airpods Pro 2 wireless earbuds at the event. They're anticipated to have updated designs and better noise-cancelling technologies. If the new airpods are released, it will be over three years since the original Airpods Pro were introduced in 2019.
