Apple Event LIVE: Foldable iPhone, iPhone 18 Pro Max, Apple Watch 12 and all the big news
We're just hours away from Apple's Surprise and shine launch event, which should reveal devices like iPhone Duo, iPhone 18 Pro Max and more.
On September 9, 2026, Apple is set to unveil a range of new hardware at its highly anticipated "Surprise and Shine" event. The most anticipated announcement is the debut of the iPhone Duo, Apple's first-ever foldable smartphone. Rumors suggest the device will feature a 5.5-inch cover screen and a larger 7.8-inch inner display, effectively combining the functionality of a phone and tablet in a single, pocketable device. However, this innovative design may come with a hefty price tag, potentially exceeding $2,000.
In addition to the iPhone Duo, Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, featuring the new 2nm A20 Pro chip and other enhanced camera capabilities. The Apple Watch series is also rumored to include the Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4, both offering advanced health tracking, extended battery life, and improved sensors. Furthermore, Apple may introduce the Apple HomePad, an iPad mini-sized smart display, as well as updates to Apple TV 4K and AirPods 5.
The event will be live-streamed on Apple's official website, YouTube channel, and Apple TV app. As the anticipation builds, many are curious about how the iPhone Duo will fare in the competitive foldable market and whether it will establish itself as one of Apple's greatest hardware releases.
