At the event, Apple is expected to unveil not only the new iPhone 16 models, but also the new Apple Watch Series 10 (or Apple Watch X), and new AirPods.
As always, pre-orders for all the devices that will be announced are expected to start shortly after the event ends, after an hour or two, with the first batch of countries likely to see the products launched on September 20, according to the latest rumors.
