That’s where those promotional videos come in.

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max have gotten bigger, with 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch displays, respectively.

It’ll integrate with so many parts of iOS, from rewriting messages to creating custom emojis, from searching and organizing your photo library to bringing Siri into the AI era.

AirPods Pro 2 will be updated with a clinical-grade hearing aid feature that can help those with mild to moderate hearing loss. Not sure if you need a hearing aid?
