Apple's iPhone 18 Pro launch event is coming — but don't expect these 5 products
Apple's September event should have a lot of big reveals, but there are plenty of things we should not expect to see until much later.
Apple's September event is approaching, and while new devices like the iPhone 18 Pro and the foldable iPhone Ultra are expected, there are five products that Apple might not announce. One of these devices is the iPhone 18, which isn't expected to launch in September 2026. Instead, it's rumored to be released in early 2027 alongside the iPhone Air 2 and the lower-cost iPhone 18e.
Another product not likely to be introduced is the camera-equipped AirPods Ultra, despite rumors of a demo video in macOS Tahoe 26.7. Supply chain and software challenges are reportedly delaying the launch until 2027. Additionally, a touchscreen MacBook Pro Ultra might not be revealed this year, with the M6 series Macs likely arriving sooner.
Lastly, the iPad mini OLED refresh isn't expected to be announced in September, with a more likely release date in October. The Apple Watch SE isn't anticipated to be introduced at this event, with the Apple Watch SE 4 possibly arriving in 2028.
