Apple will unveil the AirPods Pro 3, along with the iPhone 17 series and new Apple Watch models, at its event on September 9th. The iPhone 17 series will include the standard model, a thinner version called the Air, and Pro and Pro Max models.
Devices to be unveiled at the Apple event
iPhone 17 series
The standard iPhone 17 will retain the battery-style camera array from the iPhone 16. It will also feature innovations such as a new processor, a higher screen refresh rate, and an improved front-facing camera. At 5.5 mm thick, the iPhone 17 Air will be the thinnest iPhone in its history. However, it is reportedly expected to feature a single-camera design and a smaller battery.
The rear camera array on the Pro models will undergo significant changes. The camera will be moved to the left side, while the flash and sensors will be moved to the right.
Advanced features such as the Apple A19 Pro processor, a triple-camera system, and a 24-megapixel front-facing camera are also expected.
Apple Watch Series 11 and Ultra 3
On the Apple Watch front, the Series 11, Ultra 3, and SE 3 models will debut. The Series 11 highlights the use of a MediaTek modem, the new S11 chip, blood pressure measurement, and AI-powered sports functions. There may be minor design changes.
The Ultra 3 model will feature a brighter, higher-refresh-rate OLED display. It will also feature innovations such as satellite connectivity and faster charging. The Apple Watch SE 3 will be updated for the first time after 2022. Thinner bezels and improved health and fitness features are expected. The SE 3 may also feature a sleek design similar to the Apple Watch 10.
AirPods Pro 3
In the wireless headphone category, the AirPods Pro 3 is expected to be introduced. These next-generation headphones will feature better sound quality and improved active noise cancellation. Furthermore, innovations such as the use of the H3 chip, improvements for hearing health, and increased charging performance will be highlighted. Apple is expected to announce official release dates and other surprises at its September 9th event.
