New product forecast information

iPhone 16 Pro和Pro Max


Compared with last year's models, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will have new upgrade points:

1. The display is larger than ever, with the Pro model at 6.3 inches and the Pro Max at 6.9 inches, up from last year's 6.1 inches and 6.7 inches;

2. It has a dedicated hardware button to control the camera (the authenticity of this news is currently less than 50%);

3. Camera upgrades will bring better ultra-wide-angle cameras, improved low-light performance, and 5x optical zoom;

4. The A18 Pro chip is designed specifically for AI thanks to its powerful neural engine.

iPhone 16 and 16 Plus

Unlike the Pro version, the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus will use the same display size as last year's models. However, unlike recent generations of iPhones, the 16 and 16 Plus may use the same A18 Pro chip as the Pro and Pro Max models. Regarding chips, perhaps this year we will see two new iPhone chips for the first time: the A18 chip. Apple may distinguish between the standard model and the Pro model, and will name the chips A18 and A18 Pro respectively.


Apple may use the A18 chip with fewer GPU cores for the iPhone 16 series, while reserving chips with higher-performance GPUs for the iPhone 16 Pro series. This strategy will ensure that all iPhone 16 models, including the future iPhone SE, will be able to support Apple Intelligence, which will debut in iOS 18 and requires high-performance chips to run AI features on the device.

AirPods 4

Apple plans to launch not one, but two different levels of AirPods 4 headphones. These two headphones are a low-priced version and a higher-end version. Both AirPods 4 will be equipped with a USB-C charging case and an upgraded earphone stem design, which looks like a hybrid of AirPods Pro and AirPods 3. AirPods 4 are likely to be slightly adjusted on the existing basis and are expected to continue Apple's usual classic white appearance.


It is said that the noise reduction function is exclusive to the high-end model and supports the "Find" function. The core sound quality of the low-priced AirPods 4 should not be greatly compromised, but it may not support certain "advanced hearing" functions, such as headphone detection and spatial audio.

AirPods Max 2

AirPods Max will get an update this fall. AirPods Max 2 will switch from Lightning charging to USB-C charging and may gain several features currently exclusive to AirPods Pro 2, such as adaptive audio, conversation awareness, and personalized audio.


In addition, foreign media recently exposed an Apple patent for AirPods Max wireless headphones. The patent shows that the new AirPods Max will use a touch control design instead of the current Digital Crown design, which will allow functions such as controlling Siri, adjusting volume, and adjusting songs.

Apple Watch Series 10


Apple will launch a new Apple Watch Series 10, with both standard sizes increasing; the small watch will be about the same size as the current large watch, while the large watch will match the screen size of the Ultra. The device's casing is also getting thinner and will have a more powerful chip, which may lay the foundation for future Apple Intelligence. Health sensors for detecting high blood pressure and sleep apnea are also possible.

Apple Watch Ultra 3


The Apple Watch Ultra is a popular product from Apple that has been updated every year since its debut in 2022.

It is reported that the Apple Watch Ultra 3 is expected to maintain a similar appearance to its predecessor. It is rumored that it will provide more color options, including a black titanium version, which will become a selling point for the new watch. In addition, the new watch may also be equipped with a slightly larger display, from 1.93 inches to 2.12 inches, to provide a better visual experience.

For this Apple autumn new product launch conference, NetEase Technology and NetEase Digital will bring you real-time updates from the front, so stay tuned!
