iPhone 14
The “star” of the upcoming Apple event will be the company’s line of smartphones – the iPhone 14. This year, Apple will present four models at once: iPhone 14, the large-screen iPhone 14 and the flagships iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max.
The company’s base smartphone will be the iPhone 14 with a 6.1-inch display and the usual notch cutout. If you believe the leaks, the main difference between the novelty and last year’s models will be the amount of RAM, upgraded from 4 GB to 6 GB. At the same time, the slightly improved Apple A15 Bionic chip used in last year’s flagships will be responsible for the performance in the 2022 smartphone.
Apple has reserved the main innovations for the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max models. The first will receive a screen of 6.1 inches, and the second – a screen with a diagonal of 6.7 inches. The technical specifications of both models will be the same. For the first time in iPhone history, the flagship versions of the new smartphones will offer a 48-megapixel main camera and 8K resolution video recording. In addition, the cutout for the front camera, known as the “notch”, will be replaced by a new one, which in the network is already called the “pill”. The novelty, however, will be the Apple A16 chipset and the Always-On-Display function.

insiders allegationAlong with the iPhone, Apple will show up to three versions of its branded smartwatches – the Apple Watch 8, the Apple Watch SE and an all-new Apple Watch Pro.
The Apple Watch 8 will inherit the design of its predecessors and feature a 41 or 45mm diagonal display. It is assumed that the innovation will learn to track the body temperature of the user, like the latest smart watch Samsung Galaxy Watch 5.
The second generation of Apple Watch SE will be produced in 40 and 44 mm sizes. They will get an optical heart rate sensor and an EKG sensor. The budget innovation will also be taught how to work with the Always-On-Display functionality.
A brand new watch will be the Apple Watch Pro. They will receive a screen size increased to 50 mm and a titanium case. The watch has been made more reliable for use in harsh conditions. In addition to features and specifications similar to the standard Apple Watch 8, the Pro model will receive a new temperature sensor, heart monitor and blood oxygen (SpO2) sensor.
AirPods Pro
according to numerous leaksThree years later, Apple will continue to update its popular AirPods Pro earbuds, which have been rumored for a long time.
It is assumed that the headphones will support Bluetooth 5.2 and the Apple Lossless Audio Codec, which will improve not only the sound quality, but also the connection of the accessory to a smartphone.
At the same time, the headphones retained the design, but the charging box could receive a small novelty in the form of a speaker and a hole for it. The speaker helps users find the accessory in case of loss. It is also expected that the headphones will be equipped with a USB Type-C port instead of the proprietary Lightning connector.
iPad10
if you believe rumorsApple will finally drop the old tablet design on the basic 10th generation iPad. The tablet will borrow the design of the more expensive iPad Air model and place a Touch ID fingerprint scanner on the side power button, making the screen “bezel-less”. Also, the iPad will completely abandon Lightning in favor of USB Type-C.
Again, expectedApple will add the M2 computer processor to its flagship iPad Pro tablets. According to leaks, the M2-based iPad Pro will receive wireless charging support for the first time, and the display of the old model will be increased to 14 or even 15 inches.
But the chances of new Apple tablets coming out in September are slim, as the release of iPadOS 16, which will be released separately from iOS for the first time, has been delayed. Most likely their release will take place in October, which coincides with the delayed iPadOS release date.

Apple intend Transfer even Mac mini, a small form factor computer, to the latest M2 processor. Some insiders claim that in addition to the new chipset, the mini-computer will receive a new design. However, there are very few details about him.
Despite rumors about the device’s release date, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes the odds of a Mac mini coming out in September are pretty low.
About two years ago, Apple introduced the prolific Mac Pro system unit, which it promises to update in the next 24 months. So, Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman shared According to the information, Apple has prepared the M2 Extreme, the most productive processor in the Silicon family under development for the Mac Pro.
However, opinions on this are divided – the company has not yet introduced the M2 Max and M2 Ultra to move on to the final solution. At the same time, the company already has a highly productive Mac Studio computer based on the M1 Max and M1 Ultra. In this regard, there is a high probability that the release of the Mac Pro will occur no earlier than 2023.
Now in the Apple lineup there is only one monoblock of the iMac family – this is a 24-inch model based on the M1 chip. according to numerous leaksApple is preparing to launch a 27-inch iMac Pro that will feature a more powerful solution in the form of an M2 chip, M2 Max or Ultra.
However, despite all the rumors, even the existence of this computer is questioned.
TV set-top box and speaker
Apple in September introduce An updated Apple TV 4K set-top box that will be available at a lower price than its predecessors. At the same time, there is no detailed information about this device. It is believed that Apple may not mention the device in the presentation and may release a modest version on its website just before the start of sales.
There are many on the internet rumors It’s about the next iteration of the Apple HomePod smart speaker. It is assumed that the new model will have a screen that will allow you to manage not only the media library, but also the elements of a smart home. Considering iPads with the new version of iPadOS 16 to lose Smart home control capabilities via HomeKit, these speculations seem reasonable.
At the same time, some analysts and journalists are confident that in connection with the presentation of the iPhone 14, the smart speaker will not receive the necessary attention, so Apple may delay its announcement.
Mixed Reality Headset
Although there is no official information from Apple, netizens have been discussing the AR / VR headset that Tim Cook’s company has been working on for years.
According to the latest leaks, the first model will go into limited production very soon. At first, developers will be able to pick up the device, and only after a year the headset will be available to the mass buyer.
It is claimed that the device could be shown at the presentation on September 7. However, a more likely date for the announcement of this device is June 2023, the month of the WWDC developer conference.
