Every fall, Apple holds an early September event, and every fall, it announcesnew iPhone models.
iPhone 16
First up, the iPhone 16 itself.
Scrolling pages, for instance, performing pitch bends in music apps, and so on.

Also expected is a boost to the ultra-wide camera,taking it to 48 megapixelslike the current 1X camera.
This change may only come to the Pro Max version.
The higher-end version will get active noise canceling and transparency mode and a MagSafe charging case.
After a years-long drought, Apple is on a roll with new buttons.Apple
The cheaper onesperhaps AirPods SEwill just get the new look.
Apple Intelligence
And then there’s the AI.
Yes, the iPhone has had the Neural Engine for years, but this is how hype goes.

This rush to AI will almost have some physical changes, too.
Currently, the regular iPhone 15 runs on the previous year’s iPhone Pro chip.
That may change, thanks to the extra power required to do all Apple’s on-machine AI stuff.
If Apple announces any new Macs, those too will need some extra RAM.
This nickel-and-dime move has come back to bite Apple now that it needs more RAM for Apple Intelligence.
Rather embarrassingly, evensome of its MacBooks Pro cannot runAI features.
