Apple is expected to launch the iPhone 17, Apple Watches and more
CNN
Apple is expected to announce the iPhone 17 among other new products at its “Awe dropping” event. It’s widely considered to be the company’s biggest moment of the year
• The iPhone 17 Air: Apple is widely expected to debut an all-new, slimmer version of the iPhone called the iPhone 17 Air at its event on Tuesday. • iPhone price hikes: Analysts expect Apple to raise the prices of its new iPhone models in the wake of President Donald Trump’s tariffs. • New Apple Watches: Apple is expected to announce upgraded versions of the Apple Watch, Apple Watch Ultra and Apple Watch SE during its keynote. • Apple’s AI strategy: AI is expected to take a backseat to the iPhone at this event after Apple delayed a major upgrade to Siri earlier this year. Assuming Apple maintains the strategy it’s followed over the past couple of years, the company will launch a standard iPhone 17 along with an iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. The “Pro” models are typically marketed towards those who want a more sophisticated camera, more storage, larger screens and longer battery life. The Pro models will get a fresh design and a higher resolution zoom camera, while the base iPhone will have a slightly larger screen and a higher refresh rate like the Pro models, according to Bloomberg. Higher refresh rates make scrolling feel smoother, an upgrade that should pair nicely with the new “liquid glass” interface coming in Apple’s next iPhone update.
