Top 5 Apple Event Rumors
Design Tweaks to iPhone 16 Series
Apple is likely to introduce new features through subtle design changes in the iPhone 16 lineup. In the regular variants, the camera layout might alter from diagonal to vertical to support spatial recording features.
The Pro models would have an increased display size to 6.3 inches and 6.9 inches. Apart from this, all iPhone 16 models are said to come with a new “Capture Button.”
iPhone 16 Series Price Increase
The price increase in the new iPhone 16 series was attended with high regard, especially with regards to the Pro models, due to new upgrades that will integrate a far more powerful chipset, AI features, and improved camera lenses.
However, this increase in price may not apply to the standard iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus. The Pro models might increase by another $100, while it is also speculated to drop the option of 128GB storage.

Apple Watch Series 10 Redesign
Along with the new iPhones, Apple is said to release the 10th generation of the Apple Watch series, featuring the Apple Watch Ultra 3.
The latest rumours suggest that the Apple Watch Series 10 will have larger displays, which might grow from the current 41mm and 45mm sizes to 45mm and 49mm.
New Health Features in Apple Watch
Next-gen Apple Watches may pack high-fidelity health monitoring features like sleep apnea and hypertension detection. This would include a blood oxygen monitoring feature, which is already underway.
However, these may still be premature as Apple finds itself in the midst of a patent dispute with Masimo Corp over the same.
New Apple AirPods Lineup
Apple may be readying a new generation of AirPods after roughly three years. This new lineup may include both standard and Pro models. A more affordable model may replace the second-generation AirPods.
