Apple Event

Apple is hosting its big fall event on September 9th, 2025, to announce its latest iPhones and Apple Watches. We’re expecting Apple to unveil the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and a brand-new thinner model called the iPhone Air. The big question: Do people want thinner phones? Will it sacrifice battery life? Also on deck: AirPods Pro 3 are possible, and we’ll likely see the Apple Watch Series 11, a new budget Apple Watch SE, and the Apple Watch Ultra 3.

Maybe Apple will finally move the Magic Mouse’s charging port.

Bloomberg reports that Apple will “likely” introduce an updated trackpad, keyboard, and mouse with USB-C at its “Scary Fast” event on Monday, and here’s hoping Apple uses that as an opportunity to put the Magic Mouse’s charging port in a better spot. If it doesn’t, I’m going to have to write a 2023 version of this article.

Final Cut Pro now supports the iPhone 15 Pro’s log-encoded video.

That’s according to today’s update notes for Final Cut Pro and other video-editing apps — even iMovie! (via MacRumors).

The iPhone 15 Pro’s log-encoded video is ideal for video editors because it has no baked-in color profile. That means it records washed-out, low-contrast video, but you can tune the color to your liking in post.

Here, let The Verge’s Vjeran Pavic show you.

The important stuff is inside.

Victoria Song has spent some time with the new Apple Watch Series 9 and the new Apple Watch Ultra 2, which look... a lot like the previous models. Even the bright new screen on the Ultra was hard to test indoors at Apple’s iPhone 15 launch event.

But inside these wearables, there’s a new S9 SiP (System in Package) and a new ultra wideband chip, and she was able to try out the new Double Tap control feature.

Straight from today’s iPhone 15 launch event, Allison Johnson can tell you all about the new lineup, including the now titanium-bodied iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max that feel noticeably lighter than their predecessors.

The iPhone 15’s USB-C port will let you charge your AirPods and Apple Watch.

It’s one nice perk from the iPhone’s switch to USB-C.
