  "account": "Apple is set to unveil its highly anticipated foldable iPhone at its annual event on September 9 at 10 AM PDT. The company has built up a lot of buzz around this long-awaited move into the foldable smartphone market, which Samsung pioneered nearly a decade ago. Apple has prepared a YouTube stream for the surprise and shine event, and users can set reminder notifications on the platform to ensure they don't miss the live broadcast. Alternatively, the livestream can be watched directly on Apple's dedicated events site.\n\nIn addition to the foldable iPhone Ultra, the event is expected to introduce the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max models. These may appeal to those who prefer traditional smartphones or who are unwilling to pay the rumored $2,000 price tag for the foldable model. The standard iPhone 18 is not anticipated to launch until the following year. Apple may also unveil new products, such as an updated HomePod, camera-enabled AirPods, and fresh Apple Watches. With John Ternus now leading the company, this will be Apple's first major product announcement since Tim Cook left his position as CEO.",
