Apple Event 2026: Everything announced, including iPhone Duo
Apple announced a wave of new hardware and software on Sept. 9, headlined by the foldable iPhone Duo, Siri AI, and the 18 Pro.
Apple kicked off its 2026 hardware lineup with a highly anticipated event at the Steve Jobs Theater. CEO John Ternus, stepping into his first keynote after becoming Apple's head just a week prior, emphasized Apple Intelligence's integration within the company's ecosystem. The event showcased the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, featuring a new Burgundy finish, enhanced battery life, and a camera system with a 48-megapixel Fusion Main camera, variable aperture, and manual controls.
The Pro models come equipped with the A20 Pro chip, boasting a 6-core CPU, 7-core GPU, and a 16-core Neural Engine.
Apple's most exciting announcement was the iPhone Duo, the company's first foldable smartphone. Sporting a 7.6-inch inner display and a 5.4-inch outer display, the Duo is the thinnest iPhone and features Smart Take for automatic photo capture and Duo FaceTime for video calls. The device runs on the A20 Pro chip and includes dual batteries for up to 44 hours of video playback. Available in Star White and Night Sky finishes, the iPhone Duo starts at $1,999 and will be available for pre-order starting October 16.
