Specifications and product names above are based on current reports may change when Apple officially announces its products.
The iPhone is expected to remain the centrepiece of Apple's September launch. The iPhone 18 Pro is rumoured to feature Apple's next-generation A20 Pro processor, significant camera improvements and a smaller Dynamic Island.
The iPhone 18 Pro Max could take things even further with a larger battery and improved power efficiency. For users who spend long hours streaming, gaming, taking photos or working from their phones, battery life could be one of its biggest advantages.
Reports also suggest that Apple may introduce a completely new premium model: the iPhone Ultra. The foldable device could represent one of Apple's biggest design changes to the iPhone family and compete directly with premium foldable smartphones already on the market.
Apple Watch is also expected to receive major attention. The Apple Watch Series 12 is rumoured to bring a faster S-series processor, improved health monitoring and potentially a ceramic case option. Some reports also point to enhanced heart-monitoring capabilities and further health-related improvements.
For customers who want something more rugged, the Apple Watch Ultra 4 could bring new sensors and design refinements aimed at fitness enthusiasts, athletes and outdoor users.
These watches could be particularly appealing to customers already using an iPhone because Apple's ecosystem allows the devices to work closely together for notifications, fitness tracking, communication and everyday convenience.
The next-generation AirPods 5 is another product to watch. Reports suggest Apple could offer different versions, including a standard model and an active-noise-cancellation option.
For people who use wireless earbuds for music, calls, commuting, studying or working, the combination of improved audio, convenience and integration with Apple devices could make AirPods 5 one of the more accessible upgrades in the new lineup.
Apple's official newsroom currently lists AirPods Max 2 as its latest 2026 AirPods hardware announcement, so AirPods 5 remains something to watch for at the upcoming event.
Apple could also surprise customers with new smart-home hardware. Rumoured products include a HomePad/HomePod Touch with a touchscreen, a HomePod mini 2, and a refreshed Apple TV 4K.
If introduced, these products could strengthen Apple's smart-home ecosystem by combining Siri, entertainment, home controls and Apple's broader device ecosystem in new ways.
