What to expect (and not expect) from yet another September Apple event
"Apple's next product event is happening on September 9, and while the company hasn't technically dropped any hints about what's coming, anyone with a working memory and a sense of object permanence can tell you that an Apple event in the month of September means next-generation iPhones. Apple's flagship phones have changed in mostly subtle ways since 2022's iPhone 14 Pro added the Dynamic Island and 2023's refreshes switched from Lightning to USB-C."
"The screen will supposedly be the biggest beneficiary, upgrading from 6.1 inches to 6.3 inches (the same size as the current iPhone 16 Pro) and adding a high-refresh-rate ProMotion screen that has typically been reserved for the Pro phones. Apple is always careful not to add too many "Pro"-level features to the entry-level iPhones, but this one is probably overdue-even less-expensive Android phones like the Pixel 9a ship often ship with 90 Hz or 120 Hz screens at this point."
Apple will hold a product event on September 9 focused on next-generation iPhones. The iPhone 17 is expected to be the mainstream model receiving iterative upgrades. The display is slated to grow from 6.1 to 6.3 inches and add ProMotion high-refresh-rate capability previously reserved for Pro models. The change could narrow feature gaps between standard and Pro iPhones and improve on-screen fluidity. Incremental improvements to chips and cameras are expected. A foldable iPhone remains rumored but unlikely to arrive this year. Design evolution since the 2017 iPhone X has been gradual rather than revolutionary.
