Apple has officially sent out invites for the launch of the iPhone 16 series, with the tagline “It’s Glowtime.” The special event is scheduled for September 9, where the company is expected to unveil four new iPhone 16 models.
Apple iPhone Event: What to Expect
Apple is anticipated to reveal four models in the iPhone 16 series: the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. Leaks suggest that there will be changes in the display sizes for the Pro models. The iPhone 16 Pro Max could feature a larger 6.9-inch display, while the iPhone 16 Pro may come with a 6.3-inch display.
One of the key highlights of the iPhone 16 series will be the introduction of Apple Intelligence features, although these are expected to arrive later through a software update.
Rumors indicate that Apple might introduce a new Capture button in the iPhone 16 series, designed to quickly snap photos or record videos directly from the camera app. This physical capacitive button is expected to support force-sensitive half-press actions for features like locking exposure, adjusting focus, zooming in and out, and more.
In addition to the new iPhones, Apple is likely to introduce three new Apple Watch models: the Watch Series 10, Watch Ultra 3, and a new affordable Watch SE.
There are also rumors that Apple could unveil the second generation of AirPods Max along with two new AirPods models. At the event, Apple is expected to announce the rollout date for iOS 18 and other software updates for its devices.
