Apple iPhone Duo, iPhone 18 Pro, Watch Series 12, Ultra 4 coverage wrap-up

Apple's 2026 iPhone event is now done, and it was an unusual one. We finally got to see Apple's inaugural folding iPhone, and it's intriguing, to say the least. It looks to be yet another product category that Apple was late to, but at which it arrived with its typical refinement and specialness. We'll see.

We also got the new iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, both of which got a new main camera lens with a variable f/1.5 to f/4.0 aperture.

The latest non-Pro AirPods are here. The buds cost as much as their predecessor - $129- but there's no discrimination on ANC this time; it comes as standard. If you want a wireless charging case and touch controls, you'd need to upgrade to the $149 model.

Apple also unleashed the new Watch Series 12 and Watch Ultra 4, complete with the new S11 SoC and heart rate sensing every 5 seconds. Apple dubbed its new wearables the most accurate at heart tracking on the market!
