Apple Event 2026 live — last-minute iPhone Ultra leaks, AirPods 5 rumors, and more ahead of today's big showcase
We're reporting live from Apple's ‘Surprise and Shine’ event, where we expect the foldable iPhone Ultra, AirPods 5, and more to be unveiled.
Apple's highly anticipated 'Surprise and Shine' event is happening today in California, and our team is on the ground to bring you all the big announcements as they happen. Rumors suggest Apple's first foldable iPhone, which could be named either the iPhone Ultra or iPhone Duo, will be unveiled at the event. This new device would represent a significant change for the iPhone lineup and could potentially boost the popularity of foldable phones in general.
In addition to the foldable iPhone, Apple is expected to refresh its lineup of wearables, earbuds, and smart home products. New Apple Watches, AirPods, and HomePods could be announced alongside a potential update to the Apple TV 4K, which hasn't seen a refresh since 2022. The event is set to kick off at 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm BST, but for those in Australia, that translates to 3am AEST on September 10.
