What to watch for at Apple’s Awe-Dropping event on September 9: 5 key highlights
Apple’s Awe-Dropping event on September 9 promises new iPhones, Apple Watch Ultra 3, AirPods Pro, and more. Here are 5 key things to expect from the big reveal.
Fresh Colors and Cases Apple is shaking up its color palette this year. The iPhone 17 Pro could come in a bright orange shade, while the iPhone 17 Air might be light blue. New TechWoven fabric cases with cutouts for straps and lanyards are also expected, replacing the unpopular FineWoven cases.

Redesigned iPhone 17 Pro Cameras The iPhone 17 Pro models are getting a pill-shaped camera bump and a stronger aluminum back. Rumors point to a 48-megapixel telephoto lens with up to 8x optical zoom, though the full details behind the redesign aren’t confirmed yet.
3/5
A Super Thin iPhone Apple is likely to unveil the ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air, just 5.5mm thick. It could be the thinnest iPhone ever, but might have only a single-lens camera and slightly shorter battery life than other models.
4/5
Apple Watch Ultra 3 with Satellite Connectivity The Apple Watch Ultra 3 could let you connect via satellite in emergencies when there’s no Wi-Fi or cellular signal. This feature seems to be exclusive to the Ultra model and won’t appear on the Apple Watch Series 11.
AirPods Pro with Heart Rate Tracking The new AirPods Pro are expected to get better Active Noise Cancellation, improved sound, and a refreshed design. They might also include in-ear heart rate tracking, similar to the Powerbeats Pro 2.
