Aug. 26 (UPI) — Apple announced Tuesday that it will unveil the iPhone 17 at an event in September that could include notable upgrades to one of the company’s signature gadgets.
The tech giant has been tight-lipped about what to expect about the September 9 event at its Cupertino, Calif., campus. Apple CEO Tim Cook wrote in a post on X to prepare for an “awe dropping” event that included a glowing image of the company’s logo.
The latest iPhone will include a “super thin” version at 5.5 millimeters thick, making it the thinnest iteration of the device to date, according to MacRumours. Other highlights of the event will include Pro versions of the iPhone, which will have an improved camera and will come in new colors, as well as better noise cancellation for AirPods.
Apple is also expected to update its Apple Watch Series 11, Ultra 3, and SE 3, reported TechCrunch.
The company previously showcased its iPhone 16 model at its annual hardware event on the same date last year. The model included artificial intelligence and the company also announced its upgraded Apple Watch would include a sleep apnea feature and its AirPod would have clinical-grade hearing aid functions.
