Everything Apple revealed at the iPhone 17 launch event

Wait 5 sec.

With the start of September comes the promise of crisp, fall-like weather and, like clockwork, new iPhones. Apple's "awe dropping" iPhone 17 event this year had execs showing off the latest iPhones from Cupertino and reminding folks of the changes Liquid Glass and iOS 26 will bring to their handsets in the coming week. New Apple Watches and AirPods are expected to be revealed as well. If you're unable to watch the event live or follow along with Engadget's liveblog, here are all of the biggest announcements coming out of Apple's iPhone 17 event. AirPods Pro 3 Apple After three years, we now have a new version of the AirPods Pro. Apple’s latest premium earbuds, the AirPods Pro 3, look much the same as the Pro 2, but now they have heart rate monitoring thanks to new built-in biometric sensors. The Fitness app has new experiences to accompany this, including new workouts you can track while wearing just AirPods Pro 3 and carrying your iPhone. Apple's also touting improved audio with spatial listening, better active noise cancellation (four times as effective as the ANC in the original AirPods Pro) and foam-infused eartips. Live translation is another new feature which is, unsurprisingly, powered by Apple Intelligence. A new gesture will activate live translation when you're wearing the new buds, and it will translate words spoken to you in another language to your preferred language. To reply, all you have to do is speak naturally in your own native language, and a translation will show up on your iPhone screen for the person you're talking with to see. As far as battery life goes, they should get at least eight hours on a single charge. AirPods Pro 3 are available to order today for $249, and will be widely available on September 19. Apple Watch Series 11 Apple announced the Apple Watch Series 11 as its thinnest and most durable smartwatch yet. It's twice as scratch resistant as previous watches, and it now supports 5G for the first time thanks to a new modem and improved internal tech that make it more power efficient. The watch will also be able to monitor for hypertension, or high blood pressure, using improved algorithms and the built-in heart rate monitor. If the watch identifies patterns of hypertension, you'll get an alert in the Health app. This story is developing; please refresh for updates.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/mobile/smartphones/everything-apple-revealed-at-the-iphone-17-launch-event-171028231.html?src=rss
