The iPhone 16 is set to make its debut at Apple’s big event today

Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 16 Monday. Although the new phone will probably get a few small upgrades on the outside, Apple is betting that significant changes to what’s on the inside will excite customers who haven’t been given a convincing reason to upgrade in years.

The company is set to introduce the first lineup of iPhones purpose-built for generative artificial intelligence (which lets users create text and images) during its annual hardware event, which kicks off at 1 p.m. ET.

The event was teased with the cryptic motto of “it’s glow time,” and Apple is staying mum thus far on what it means.

and AirPods.

The Apple Watch Series 10 is expected to be thinner than its predecessors but with a larger screen, and the company is also set to roll out new low-end and mid-tier AirPod offerings, Gurman reported, citing unnamed people familiar with the situation.

Those updates would follow new software offerings for both devices that Apple announced at its annual developers conference in June.

AirPods users will be able to answer or decline a call with just a nod or shake of their head. And new vital sign tracking on Apple Watch can notify users when they may be getting sick, based on signals like body temperature and heart rate.
