Highlights from Apple’s September 9 keynote event
iPhone 16
The latest iPhone model is a big step up from its predecessors. It features a second-generation 48-megapixel Fusion camera that captures crisp and clear images without delay. The iPhone 16 also introduces a Photographic Styles feature, allowing users to adjust color and lighting in real time. In addition, the ultra-wide module with autofocus now supports high-resolution macro photography. Furthermore, the device now offers spatial audio and video recording, with the ability to highlight voices in the foreground for a studio-like effect.
iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max
Powered by the new A18 Pro chip, these professional versions offer enhanced performance and the largest displays in Apple’s history. The standout feature of both models, however, is their upgraded 48-megapixel Fusion camera, equipped with an improved 4-pixel sensor that allows users to record 4K video at 120 frames per second with Dolby Vision. The latest devices also feature a new Camera Control button, enabling users to instantly launch the camera and control shooting through various gestures.
Apple Watch Series 10
The latest iteration of the Apple Watch features a larger display without increasing the overall size of the device. In fact, the watch is nearly 10% thinner, making it more comfortable to wear. New features include sleep apnea alerts as well as water depth and temperature sensors designed for swimming and water sports. The device also supports Tides and Oceanic+ apps, which help users monitor tides and other conditions for underwater activities.
AirPods 4
The new AirPods come in two versions: standard and with active noise cancellation. Both models are powered by the new H2 chip, which delivers improved sound quality and a more stable connection. The AirPods 4 feature an updated design with shorter stems while maintaining an open-ear style for a more comfortable fit. The headphones also offer enhanced acoustic architecture, improved bass, and crystal-clear treble.
