On Monday, Apple held one of its high-profile media events. The event was used to introduce the next round of iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch. These are three of the company’s biggest products, and all of the design tweaks are very familiar to the current Apple universe. But Apple also rolled out some new tricks, like sleep apnea detection in the Apple Watch and a new feature that instantly turns a pair of AirPods Pro into hearing aidAnd of course, the company is also eager to get consumers excited about the iPhone’s new Apple Intelligence features, even if those flashy AI tricks won’t show up until next month.
