Anticipated Launch of New iPhone Models by Apple
The tech world is abuzz with rumours and anticipation as Apple prepares to unveil its latest offerings. On Tuesday, at 7:00 PM CEST, Apple is expected to reveal a new iPhone, marking another step in the tech giant's relentless pursuit of innovation.
According to reports, the new iPhone, tentatively named the "iPhone Air," is rumoured to be thinner than current iPhones, with a sleek profile of around 5.5 millimeters thick. This compact design, however, comes with a compromise – the new iPhone Air is said to have only one camera lens.
The camera island on the next iPhone Pro, another anticipated model, is expected to span the width of the device for the first time since 2020. This design change could potentially lead to improved photography capabilities.
The new iPhone Pro is also expected to be lighter and dissipate heat better due to the use of an aluminum frame, as opposed to the titanium frame used in previous models. Additionally, the next generation of iPhones Pro is expected to come in a vibrant orange colour.
In the realm of wearable technology, Apple is expected to unveil a new generation of the Apple Watch in September. The Apple Watch SE is rumoured to receive an update, featuring new displays and chips. The Apple Watch Ultra, designed specifically for adventurers and extreme athletes, is expected to have the ability to communicate directly with satellites, a first for Apple's wearable devices.
Apple is also working on several exciting features for its accessories. The new AirPods Pro are said to include a sensor for pulse measurement, and the company is reportedly developing a real-time conversation translation feature for these earbuds.
Rivals like Samsung and Google have been marketing their competing models as personal daily assistants with many features based on artificial intelligence. In response, Apple is enhancing user experience through "Apple Intelligence," which includes features like live translation, visual intelligence to understand screen content, intelligent shortcuts, and improved communication across languages. These AI features are deeply integrated into iOS 26 and other new OS versions and require recent hardware such as iPhone 16 models or iPhone 15 Pro for support. The Apple Watch benefits from new AI-powered health tracking features, such as enhanced pulse measurement.
It's worth noting that Samsung beat Apple to the thinner segment with the 5.8 millimeter thick Galaxy Edge model. However, Apple's focus remains on delivering a seamless and intuitive user experience, backed by cutting-edge technology.
Interestingly, the personalized next generation of the Siri assistant software, assisted by AI, has been postponed to the coming year. This decision suggests that Apple is investing heavily in AI-driven features across its product line, but may be taking a more measured approach when it comes to Siri's evolution.
