Apple’s big iPhone day is nearly here! The Glowtime event will kick off at 10am PT Monday with a video keynote that introduces the biggest new products of the fall: the iPhone 16 and Apple Watch Series 10. And there may be a few surprises along the way as well, including new AirPods, an iPad mini, and maybe even “One more thing.” Here’s everything you need to know about the big show.
Glowtime event: What’s coming
iPhone 16 and 16 Plus: Apple’s base-level iPhones are expected to get a host of new features, including the iPhone 15 Pro’s Action button, a new Capture button, an A18 processor, Apple Intelligence, and a new vertical camera alignment. And of course, some new colors too that are noticeably brighter than last year’s.
iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max: The high-end phones get larger screens (6.32 inches and 6.9 inches), a faster chip (A18 Pro), and better cameras. And the iPhone 15 Pro Max’s enhanced zoom lens should be coming to the smaller model as well.
Apple Watch Series 10: The Glowtime event is being held on September 10, exactly 10 years after the Apple Watch made its debut at the iPhone 6 event, so it’s no secret that Apple is planning one of the biggest updates ever. Rumors say the first ever redesign could be on the way, with larger screens, a thinner body, and flatter edges.
Apple Watch SE 3: After four years of basically the same watch, the 3rd-gen SE looks to be a major overhaul, with a plastic body and a lower price.
Apple Watch Ultra 3: Not much new is expected other than a new chip and maybe a second color option.
AirPods: All of Apple’s AirPods are long overdue for an update and several are candidates for this event. A new budget model could replace the ancient 2nd-gen model with a lower price; a 4th-gen update could bring noise-cancellation and a new design; and an AirPods Max refresh could also be on the way.
iPad mini: Not much new is expected from the next mini update other than a new chip and more RAM to make it Apple Intelligence-ready.
