In addition to announcing the iPhone 16 series, which can be found out more about from here, Apple also revealed the AirPods 4 earphones and the Watch Series 10 watch.
The Watch Series 10 comes with a larger screen than the previous generation and Apple claims it is the biggest screen they have offered in their smartwatch. The display brightness is 40% higher, with better viewing angles and lower energy consumption. The watch body is 10% thinner and 9.7 mm thick.
Apple said you can now play music directly on the Watch Series 10 without needing to wear your own earphones. The watch comes with the S10 processor with 4 cores for AI processing, can charge 80% of the battery in 30 minutes, and the battery can last up to 18 hours.
Apple announced a Watch Series 10 version with a Titanium strap, available for pre-order now and will be available for sale on September 20 starting at $399. As for the AirPods 4, Apple mentioned they made slight design modifications for greater comfort in the ear and included the H2 chip for a better sound experience.
Also, thanks to the H2 chip and Siri assistant, you can interact with calls through the AirPods 4 by head gestures, either rejecting or answering calls.
With AI and the H2 chip in the AirPods 4, the earphones can recognize your surroundings. If you are wearing them and start talking to someone while music is playing, the volume will automatically decrease until the conversation is over and then return to the normal sound level.
The AirPods 4 cover comes with a battery that can last up to 30 hours, with a USB C port. There is a version that supports noise cancellation priced at $179 and a regular version without noise cancellation priced at $129. Both are available for pre-order now and will be available for sale on September 20.
