Despite facing challenges, Apple is driven to showcase its prowess in generative AI as the technology continues to evolve. The anticipated updates are poised to breathe new life into products that significantly increase the company's annual revenue.

Apple will potentially unveil four new models: the iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, and 16 Pro Max. The non-Pro models could see minor updates, maintaining the 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch sizes with enhanced processors and increased memory (8 GB, up from 6 GB). The iPhone 16 Pro models will most-likely retain the design of the iPhone 15 Pro but will feature larger displays—6.3 inches for the smaller model and 6.9 inches for the Max—along with camera upgrades.

Apple will update all its watch models simultaneously, including a new low-end Apple Watch SE, a mid-tier Series 10, and an Ultra 3 model. The Series 10 will celebrate its decade anniversary with a thinner design and slightly larger screens. AI features and new health features, like sleep apnea detection, are expected.

Apple is transitioning its Mac lineup to M4 chips, starting with the MacBook Pro, Mac mini, and iMac. No new Apple TV model is expected, and the next-generation iPhone SE is in testing for release planned for next year.
