Apple is set to host its highly anticipated iPhone-centric event on Tuesday, September 9, at 10:00 AM Pacific Time, promising a showcase of innovative products. Among the expected highlights is the unveiling of the iPhone Air, a redesigned device promising a smaller form factor while maintaining the functionalities of a standard iPhone. This engineering feat is expected to be exceptionally thin, potentially only 5.5 mm, although this may require some compromises such as shorter battery life and a single-lens camera. Additionally, the Apple Watch Ultra 3 is rumored to include satellite connectivity, enabling emergency communication in areas without Wi-Fi or cellular service. The event may also feature updates to the AirPods Pro, including improved noise cancellation, enhanced sound quality, and a refined design, possibly incorporating in-ear heart tracking. The iPhone 17 Pro models are also anticipated to have a redesigned camera bump and a more durable build, possibly including a 48-megapixel telephoto lens with up to 8x optical zoom. Accessories are also expected, possibly with a new shade of orange and a light blue color option for the iPhone 17 Air, along with fine-woven cases with strap and lanyard support.
