Some of the most interesting features won’t ship with the iPhone Duo, iPhone 18 Pro, Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4.
Following Apple's recent event, several new features and devices were unveiled, but not all are set to launch immediately. Some of the most anticipated products, such as the Apple Watch Series 12, Apple Watch Ultra 4, and AirPods 5, are now available for pre-order and will start arriving on September 18. The iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max pre-orders open at 5 a.m. PT on Saturday, with shipments beginning on the same day.
The foldable iPhone Duo is expected to have pre-orders start on October 16, with shipments arriving on October 23. The new operating systems, including iOS 27, iPadOS 27, WatchOS 27, macOS 27 Golden Gate, TVOS 27, and VisionOS 27, will be available for installation on September 14. However, Siri AI remains a beta feature, with gradual rollouts in various languages following the release of the new software.
The redesigned Health app, featuring personalized guidance, is on track for a late 2026 release. Several other features, such as Live Rewind, Siri Recap, and iPhone Handoff, will roll out in future software updates.
