Apple usually announces its new material in the fall, and this year it is not likely to be no different. The event is reported to be on September 9th and Apple is expected to release the iPhone 17 series, along with updates on Apple Watch and Airpods.
As always, there are many rumors circulating, including larger screens and improved cameras for iPhone 17 models and the introduction of an extremely thin iPhone air that could replace the model. In general, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports that this will be the first of three scheduled years of significant iphone redesigned, with a folding iPhone coming in 2026.
iphone 17, 17 pro and 17 pro max
The iPhone 17 is expected to get an important makeover to align more with Pro models. Could have a slightly larger 6.3 -inch displaywhich is an increase of 0.2 inches compared to iPhone 16, as well as one 120Hz displaya significant upgrade from current 60Hz. It is also rumored to have a 24 Megapixel front camera.
It could come in new colors: purple and green.
Pro upgrades will be remarkable on the back of the phone, rumors. Conceptual yields Show that the three rear cameras can be adjusted to a rectangular rod extending from one end of the device to another. The flash, light sensor and microphone will be very well positioned to the right side. Where the Magsafe charger is, the Apple logo is said to focus on aesthetic reasons.
Specifically, the iPhone 17 Pro can change materials, possibly replacing the titanium zone around the aluminum screen. This could help Apple reduce costs as well as offer a lighter feel.
The iPhone 17 Pro Max is expected to see fewer upgrades, as the most significant change is a slightly thicker body, which is likely to host a larger battery – which would be a huge victory.

According to Ditant DigitaleThe iPhone 17 is projected to be priced about $ 800, and the Pro Max is expected to have a price of $ 1,250. New colors for Pro models may include dark blue and copper.
The Pro model is expected to be priced about $ 1,050. However, a recent leak It indicates that there will be fewer storage options compared to the 16 Pro. Users may lose the 128GB option and will only have three options: 256GB, 512GB or 1TB, under the standard four options.
While the primary focus will be on the iPhones themselves, Apple can announce new phone cases as a bonus. Three weeks before the event, a leak It showed “Techwoven” iPhone Pro 17 cases, with higher quality woven material compared to the “Finewovoven” Apple fabric line released in 2023. The leak also shows that cases can come with crossbody belt.
iphone air
The most widely discussed reputation is that Apple can introduce its thinnest phone, the iPhone Air, which can replace the iPhone Plus.
This rumored device is said to have a profile thickness of 5.5 mm, making it about 0.08 inches thinner than iPhones. It will also have a 6.6 -inch display.
This move seems to be Apple’s answer to the trend of thinner smartphones, following the footsteps of other companies such as Samsung and Huawei. The iPhone air could potentially overcome the tip of the Samsung Galaxy S25, which measures 5.8 mm thick. In addition, it can pave the way for Apple’s foldable phone, which is expected to begin in September 2026.
While the delicate design is elegant, it will come with some compromises. Based on drags We have seen, the air is expected to have only one back camera lens, unlike the plus, which has two. There are also rumors That there may not be enough room for a speaker at the bottom, which means that the only sound source could be the front headset at the top.
Reports indicate that the device will be valued at $ 950 and will be available in black, silver and light gold.
Apple Watch Series 11, Ultra 3 and SE 3
After a two -year wait, there are various rumors surrounding the Apple Watch Ultra 3, suggesting that it will undergo significant changes. These may include faster charging speeds, 5G support and satellite connectivity. In addition, it is considered that the clock will include a larger screen.
One of the most exciting possible upgrades both for Ultra 3 blood pressure monitoring capabilities and for Series 11 is the integration of blood pressure monitoring capabilities. This feature will notify users if blood pressure levels are too high or too low. Apple also examines the addition of a sleep apnea. However, according to Bloomberg’s Gurman, the company May need to delay the release of these features for further bites.
Apple recently announced that a redesigned blood oxygen feature is circulating in some 8, 10 and Ultra series watches. This leads us to believe that Ultra 3 can also be able to get the opportunity, but the company did not mention if it would be available on Watchos 26 in its announcement.
The third generation of Apple Watch SE is not expected to receive significant updates other than a larger screen. There are still reports of a plastic version that is introduced, according to Gurman.
The rumored prices for watches are: $ 250 for Apple Watch SE 3, $ 400 for the 11 and $ 800 series for Ultra 3.
Airpods PRO 3
After the release of the Airpods Pro 2 in 2022, it’s time to upgrade and Apple may be ready to deliver. Rumors Suggest that the Airpods Pro 3 will have a more elegant, sensitive control -sensitive design, smaller headphones and a weaker case. In addition, the H3 chip is expected to enhance active noise cancellation and adaptive sound.
