Apple on Monday unveiled an artificial intelligence-focused iPhone 16 lineup, a slimmer Apple Watch and AirPods 4, and said new AI features would be added to the devices next month.
Here are some of the products that tech giant Apple launched at the event:
NEW IPHONE LINE
The iPhone 16, starting at $799, comes in two sizes: 6.1 inches and 6.7 inches. The phones are powered by the new A18 chips, which feature a 16-core neural engine designed for generative AI-paired tasks and Apple Intelligence.
The phones also come with a customizable action button, which allows users to perform a variety of functions such as recording voice memos, identifying songs and translating sentences.
APPLE WATCH UPGRADES
Apple has unveiled its latest Watch Series 10, starting at $399. According to the company, it's the thinnest and fastest-charging watch ever.
The Series 10 is powered by Apple’s new S10 chip, which features a four-core neural engine that enables machine learning and features like double-tap, Siri dictation, and fall and fall detection.
Apple also touted health-related features on its watch, such as sleep apnea detection. The watch will monitor a new metric during sleep called sleep disturbances and will alert users if they are showing signs of sleep apnea.
AIRPOD MODELS
Powered by a new, custom-built H2 chip, Apple's AirPods 4 start at $129 and offer improved sound quality and personalized spatial audio.
Users can also interact with Siri while wearing the AirPods by nodding “yes” or shaking their head to say “no” in response to Siri announcements. The charging case has USB-C ports.
The company also said the AirPods Pro 2 can now be “transformed” into a personalized hearing aid via an upcoming software update, amplifying specific sounds in real time, such as parts of words or elements in a user’s environment.
