What could be revealed during the next Apple Event is listed below.
The invitation Apple sent out promising a “Far Out”-titled event made it clear that the next Apple event containing hardware announcements will take place on September 7.
What are we anticipating to see at the following Apple Event now that these invites have arrived?
The Apple Watch 8 and AirPods Pro 2 are two more potential product debuts that may occur sooner rather than later, but the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro are the most anticipated announcement.
Here is a summary of the information we currently have regarding Apple’s September event and what we could see there.
Apple event latest news and rumors (Updated September 1)
- There isn’t much time left before the event, but iPhone 14 leaks are continuously increasing. The most recent last-minute iPhone 14 rumours are listed below.
- Additional information on the new notch and its purported built-in LEDs, as well as a potential new name for the forthcoming iPhone 14 Max variant, are all part of the latest wave of iPhone 14 rumours.
- We’ve debated how long we think the next iPhones will survive in light of all the battery-related iPhone 14 Pro rumours.
- A significant ultrawide camera improvement for the iPhone 14 Pro may be made, which may enhance shooting in low light.
- These are the significant improvements that the Apple Watch SE 2 is expected to have over the Apple Watch SE.
- We considered how the iPhone 14 Pro camera improvement would result in significantly improved low light photos, which is a major thing.
- The latest iPhone 14 satellite connectivity rumour says that satellite communication may be included on the next phones.
- According to a recent report, the AirPods Pro 2 may enable Bluetooth 5.2 with LE Audio. This could increase battery life.
Apple September event date: When is the Apple event?
Apple usually holds an event in September, so we weren’t surprised to get an invitation announcing September 7 as the next Apple event date. The invitation has an outer-space vibe, with cosmic stars creating a silhouette of the Apple logo. As past Apple events, this one will have a theme — Far Out. What this means? That remains to be seen.
This indicates that pre-orders for the items revealed during the event will soon be available. Check out our iPhone 14 pre-order guide, which is based on the premise that at least one of the new phones will be available for pre-order starting September 9.
What kind of goods may they be? The rumours suggest the following.
Apple September event: iPhone 14
The iphone14 rumors are hotter than ever, with the latest intel suggesting the 2022 iPhone could offer some fairly big changes. The iphone 14pro is tipped to offer the most upgrades, including a new 48MP camera and an always-on display.
The removal of the now-famous display notch to make room for a pill-shaped cutout for Face ID and a punch hole, or perhaps just one bigger pill-shaped hole that covers the two sensor modules and features notification lights for when you’ve got your cameras or microphone on, is the most notable rumoured design change for the iPhone 14 Pro. To find out which design of the Pro is correct, we will have to wait till its official release. Check out our overview of the modifications to the notch design on the iPhone 14 for a more in-depth look at them.
Regarding battery life and charging, we have discussed how long we anticipate the next generation of iPhones to last. Even if it only applies to the iPhone 14 Pro models, we hope expecting not just a longer battery life but also noticeably faster charging.
The iPhone 14 Mini may be replaced by the iPhone 14 Max, which is another great development from Apple (or possibly the iPhone 14 Plus). According to reports, it will cost far less and have the same sizable 6.7-inch display as the iPhone 14 Pro Max. In fact, a $100 price increase is predicted for the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max.
Given that Apple’s event is titled “Far Out” and appears to have a space theme, one such justification might be an upgraded ultrawide camera for the iPhone 14 Pro that could offer larger pixels and thus better low-light photography. Apple might also highlight the ultrawide camera’s capacity to capture stunning astrophotography images.
With the iPhone 14 Max being touted as the smaller phone’s replacement, it appears that the iPhone 14 tiny is doomed. However, we’ve got a list of the top iPhone 14 mini competitors if you’re seeking for a smaller phone, with the iPhone SE 2022 taking the lead.
All the rumoured changes are detailed in our comparison of the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro. We also have a summary of the alleged iPhone 14 specifications and a comparison of the alleged differences between the iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 13 Pro Max.
Apple September event: Apple Watch Series 8
Another product we anticipate seeing during the Apple event in September is the Apple Watch Series 8. According to reports, there aren’t any obvious differences between the Apple Watch 8 and Apple Watch 7, but that doesn’t mean the Series 8 won’t be the finest smartwatch yet.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 skin temperature reading may be challenged by an Apple Watch 8 body temperature sensor. This would go well with the updated fitness features in watchOS 9.
Also, as part of watchOS 9 for Apple Watch 8, we could see a new power saving mode that extends battery life. Will this be the year the Apple Watch finally lasts more than 18 hours? We know better than to get our hopes up, but it’s not out of the question.
The new Apple Watch 8 Pro and Apple Watch SE 2 will reportedly join the Apple Watch Series 8 as additional wearable versions. A tough wristwatch with longer battery life, a bigger display, and other premium components might be the Apple Watch 8 Pro. The Apple Watch SE 2 would be a successor to the original and provide a more affordable entry-level Apple Watch experience than the flagship.
Still need a recap? The top 5 Apple Watch 8 rumours are listed below.
Apple September event: AirPods Pro 2
The long-rumored Apple AirPods Pro 2, a replacement for the well-liked AirPods Pro, some of the finest wireless earbuds we’ve ever tried, may finally be unveiled during the September Apple Event.
According to a recent source, the AirPods Pro 2 could feature Bluetooth 5.2 with LE Audio. Leveraging Bluetooth Low Energy radio technology, LE Audio makes it possible to use electricity more effectively, extending battery life (which is an area where current AirPods models lag behind newer models recently introduced by rivals). The Low Complexity Communications Codec (LC3), which enhances audio handling and increases wireless range with a stronger and more reliable link, is also introduced.
Since Apple unveiled new noise-cancelling headphones, a number of years had passed. The Apple AirPods 3 arrived in 2021, but the AirPods Pro 2 is expected to come with significant improvements. They are believed to receive voice recognition technology, fitness monitoring capabilities, and more compatibility for third-party apps.
Although we haven’t heard anything about the AirPods Pro 2’s battery life and charging capabilities, we don’t anticipate many changes to those specifications. The AirPods 2 Pro will probably continue to use Lightning charging as well.
Rumored Apple devices — what else is coming?
Beyond the iPhone 14, Apple Watch 8 and AirPods Pro 2, we’re not sure what else Apple has planned for the September event. That said, there are other rumored Apple devices believed to be on the horizon.
iPad Pro 2022
Although there hasn’t been much news on the iPad Pro, a spring upgrade is still possible. After all, Apple’s most recent spring event saw the introduction of the iPad Pro (2021).
Another report claims that the first 3-nanometer processor might be used in the iPad Pro 2022 instead of the M1 Pro chip seen in the most recent MacBook Pro machines. The only information we have about this new chip is that it could increase efficiency and performance.
Some of these claims are supported by a new iPad Pro 2022 rumour, which also highlights a bigger battery and probable wireless MagSafe charging made possible by a magnetic Apple logo on the tablet. If these turn out to be true, only time will tell.
Mac mini
There have been rumors swirling around an upgraded Mac mini with a M1X chip and potentially a new design. The jury is out on whether this device will be shown off at the next Apple event.
idropnews claims insider information from a person involved in Apple’s marketing that said Apple had originally planned to launch a new Mac mini alongside the upcoming MacBook Pros but will delay the launch in order to let the laptop “shine.”
However, the same report claims supply chain insider information, which has production for a new Mac mini ramping up. As such, there’s a chance a new Mac mini could be revealed soon; when exactly isn’t clear.
Adding to the speculation around the rumored new device, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has now predicted that the upgrade Mac mini will indeed launch in 2022, although he didn’t give any hint as to exactly when.
Apple VR/AR headset and Apple Car
Apple Glasses or a mixed reality and virtual reality headgear from the company are still in the works. Additionally, an Apple Car could appear in the future.
At least one of those improvements may not be available for another several years since Tim Cook is rumoured to be aiming to retire after “one more” major product announcement between 2025 and 2028.
