Apple pulled back the curtain on its latest products at today’s “Awe-Dropping” September Event. As expected, the iPhone took centre stage, but the company also revealed updates to AirPods and the Apple Watch range. Here’s everything you need to know.
See the full event here:
iPhone 17 and the Ultra-Thin iPhone Air
The headline announcement was the iPhone 17 lineup, with refreshed models bringing more power and upgraded cameras. But the biggest talking point is the all-new iPhone Air.
Design: Just 5.6 mm thick, crafted from spacecraft-grade titanium.
Positioning: Aimed at those who want premium Apple design without the Pro price tag.
Price: Launching at $999.
It is the thinnest iPhone Apple has ever made, and a clear signal that the company is doubling down on sleek, lightweight hardware.
AirPods Pro 3
The next generation of Apple’s most popular earbuds landed with a strong list of upgrades:
Noise Cancellation: More effective at blocking out background chatter.
Live Translation: Translate conversations in real time through your earbuds.
Health Features: A built-in heart-rate sensor.
Custom Fit: Adjustable ear tips for comfort and improved sound seal.
Apple is clearly aiming to turn AirPods into a serious health and travel companion, not just a set of earbuds.
Apple Watch Updates: Series 11, Ultra 3 and SE 3
Apple rounded out the event with updates to its wearables.
Apple Watch Series 11: Features a new “Liquid Glass” design, built-in 5G, and greater durability.
Apple Watch Ultra 3: Bigger display, satellite connectivity, advanced GPS, hypertension trend alerts, sleep scores, and up to 42 hours of battery life (72 in low power mode).
Apple Watch SE 3: Apple’s budget option, updated with 5G support and more advanced health monitoring.
These changes show Apple’s continued push into health tracking and outdoor adventure, giving the Apple Watch more reasons to stay on your wrist around the clock.
What It Means for Apple Fans
The 2025 event wasn’t just about spec bumps. The iPhone Air shows Apple is willing to create entirely new categories within its lineup. The AirPods Pro 3 move closer to being a true health device, while the Apple Watch Ultra 3 cements itself as the most rugged smartwatch available.
Apple has made it clear: thinner, smarter, and more connected is the direction forward.
