Apple Event: Wonderlust – What to Expect from the September 12 Keynote
What to Expect from Apple's Event on September 12th.
Apple's eagerly awaited event, scheduled for September 12, finally has a name: Wonderlust. The news was confirmed through invitations sent to the international press on August 29. The company's iconic bitten apple logo has been colored in shades similar to the titanium versions of the upcoming iPhone 15. The keynote will be held at the usual Cupertino location, with a series of pre-recorded videos showcasing the evening's key products and features. CEO Tim Cook will lead the event, which will take place at 10 a.m. (local time), corresponding to 7 p.m. Italian time. But what does this eagerly awaited presentation have in store for us?
Beyond iPhone 15: A Schedule Packed with New Features
Naturally, the main focus is on the iPhone 15 family, about which a lot of information has already emerged. The range will include four models: the standard version, the iPhone 15 Plus with a larger screen, the iPhone 15 Pro, and the flagship iPhone 15 Pro Max or Ultra. The USB Type-C port will replace the traditional Lightning port, and the signature dynamic island will be present on the display, housing the components for biometric unlocking and notifications. The standard models will adopt the A16 chip, while the Pro models will have the A17, as well as ProMotion technology for the display and a periscope lens for zoom photography. The design features a titanium frame and new body color options.
Innovations in Apple Watches and AirPods
The event will also feature new additions to the Apple Watch line. The standard Apple Watch 9 will feature a similar design to its predecessor, the Apple Watch 8, but will be powered by the A15-based S9 chip, also used in the iPhone 14. The second-generation Apple Watch Ultra will have a larger display and a lighter weight thanks to the increased use of 3D-printed components. Additionally, the announcement of the first AirPods with a USB interface for charging and carrying cases is expected. This move anticipates the final phase-out of Lightning technology, a year ahead of regulations imposed by the European Commission.
Follow the Apple Event in Real Time
The Wonderlust event will be live-streamed on Apple's official website, the company's YouTube channel, and Apple TV+. Users can access the broadcast by opening the Apple TV+ app shortly before 7 p.m. Wired Italia will be present, covering the keynote as usual to provide live updates and discuss all the innovations presented during the event. Anticipation is high and expectations are high: Apple appears ready to surprise once again with its cutting-edge innovations.
