Apple claims these new models have the \u201cthinnest borders on any Apple product\u201d and described them as \u201cby far our best iPhone displays ever.\u201d The use of titanium, which is nearly half the weight of stainless steel, makes the phones \u201cmore scratch resistant than other forms of titanium others have used.\u201d<\/p>\n The company also highlighted that the Pro Max will feature \u201cthe best iPhone battery life ever,\u201d although no additional details were provided.<\/p>\n The Pro models come equipped with an A18 Pro chip featuring second-generation 3-nanometer transistors and a new 16-core neural engine designed specifically for generative AI workloads. This upgrade results in a 17% increase in total system memory bandwidth and is described as \u201ceven faster and more efficient than A18,\u201d according to Apple.<\/p>\n Both the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro will be available for pre-order starting Friday, with in-store availability beginning on September 20.<\/p>\n Apple also highlighted updates to their AirPods line, introducing the AirPods 4\u2014redesigned with advanced modeling tools to improve the fit in users\u2019 ears and calling them their \u201cmost comfortable\u201d set yet.<\/p>\n The company also has developed a hearing test, included in iOS 18, based on a study indicating that 75% of people diagnosed with hearing loss have not received the necessary assistance. Following the test, the AirPods Pro will function as a hearing aid, pending FDA clearance.<\/p>\n The Apple Watch Series 10 was also announced Monday.<\/p>\n While similar to previous models, the Series 10 features a thinner design and larger screen sizes of 42mm and 46mm, up from 41mm and 45mm in the Series 9.<\/p>\n It will also offer a potential sleep apnea detection feature, pending FDA approval.
