Yesterday, Apple officially took the wraps off its latest smartphones. The company also introduced its new AirPods Pro 3 true wireless earbuds. They also refreshed its Apple Watch lineup with the Apple Watch Series 11 and Apple Watch Ultra 3. Now, if you missed Apple’s announcement, don’t worry. The company has published a quick “catch up” series of videos that covers the iPhone 17, Apple Watch, and AirPods. So, let’s dive right in.
iPhone 17 promo videos
Perhaps the main highlight of Apple’s event is its iPhone 17 lineup . This includes the base iPhone 17 , the brand new, ultra-thin iPhone Air , and the higher-end iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max .
The iPhone Air is probably the most exciting iPhone from Apple to date. Granted, it compromises on certain specs and features to cram all that hardware into a super thin body, but wow, does it look good! The Pro and Pro Max models also got a new orange coat of paint, which is actually quite nice in real life. We’ve already covered all the phones rather extensively, but in case you prefer watching, you can check out the iPhone 17 promo videos below.
Apple’s other announcements
In addition to the new iPhone 17 models, Apple also refreshed its AirPods Pro model. The AirPods Pro 3 is the latest entry in the lineup and according to Apple, boasts better active noise cancellation than ever.
The company has also redesigned the ear tips to ensure a better and more comfortable fit. Apple has also introduced the ability for live translation. This is a feature that we’ve seen in other earbuds, like the Google Pixel Buds. It’s not anything new, but it’ll be interesting to see if Apple can do a better job than Google.
Last but not least, there is the new Apple Watch Series 11 and Apple Watch Ultra 3 smartwatches. The Series 11 doesn’t look too different from its predecessor, but the Ultra 3 has gotten a bit of a display upgrade. Apple claims it now has the largest display ever in a smartwatch. However, while the physical appearances of the smartwatches don’t look too different, there are changes under the hood. This comes in the form of 5G connectivity, which should allow for faster connections.
All in all, it was a pretty exciting fall announcement from Apple. However, we imagine that the company’s most exciting announcement will be next year, where it will finally step into the foldable smartphone waters.
