The upcoming Apple September event is just around the corner, where they are expected to unveil several new products. It is anticipated that Apple will introduce four new iPhones: the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. Additionally, the Apple Watch Series 10 is expected to make an appearance, along with a possible revamp of Apple’s earbuds in the form of Airpods 4 and potentially the Apple Airpods Max 2.
Compared to competitors like Samsung and Google, Apple is known for being more secretive about their upcoming releases, but leaks are still prevalent. We have compiled seven of the most notable rumors surrounding Apple’s new generation of iPhones and other devices.
One of the top rumors suggests that the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will feature larger screens, with the Pro model expected to increase from 6.1 inches to 6.3 inches, and the Pro Max possibly reaching 6.9 inches. In comparison, the Galaxy S24 Ultra and Google Pixel 9 Pro XL both have 6.8-inch screens, making the iPhone 16 Pro Max potentially the largest flagship non-foldable phone in the U.S.
Another rumor indicates that Apple may introduce a Capture button on the new iPhone models, allowing users to have more control over their camera functions. Additionally, there are speculations about the pricing of the iPhone 16, with a slight increase in the Pro model’s price due to the removal of the 128GB storage option.
On the smartwatch front, the Apple Watch Series 10 is rumored to feature bigger displays, with two versions expected to be released. There are also talks of the watch being equipped with sleep apnea and hypertension detection capabilities, though the feasibility of these features remains uncertain.
Lastly, it is rumored that Apple will unveil two new versions of the AirPods during the event, offering a more budget-friendly option and a sequel to the AirPods 3 with active noise cancellation. These new products are highly anticipated by Apple fans and are expected to bring significant upgrades to the current lineup.
