Apple’s “Glowtime” event just wrapped up, and while the iPhone 16 took center stage, there was plenty more to talk about, including updates to the Apple Watch and AirPods. Here’s your quick recap:
iPhone 16 and 16 Plus:The iPhone 16 and 16 Plus come with a new DSLR-style capture button for photos, videos, and settings adjustments. Stacked rear cameras support spatial video for Apple Vision Pro, and the A18 chip powers new AI features. Starting at $799 for the 6.1-inch model and $899 for the 6.7-inch Plus, they’re available in five colors and ship September 20th.
iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max: Apple’s Pro models now feature larger screens (6.3 inches for the Pro and 6.9 for the Pro Max), plus a shared 5x telephoto camera. Both models have the A18 Pro chip, with the Max promising the best iPhone battery life ever.
Apple Watch Series 10:The thinnest Apple Watch yet, Series 10, has a brighter OLED display and can now detect signs of sleep apnea by measuring breathing disturbances. It also features depth and water temperature sensors for outdoor enthusiasts.
AirPods 4 and Pro 2: The new AirPods 4 bring improved audio quality with the H4 chip and a more comfortable open-ear design. Later this year, AirPods Pro 2 will also function as over-the-counter hearing aids, with more hearing-focused features coming in a free software update.
