Everything Apple announced at its September event: iPhone Duo, iPhone 18 Pro, new Apple Watches, and AirPods 5

Apple packed its biggest September event in years with a foldable iPhone, new watches, and smarter AirPods.

The "Surprise and Shine" September launch event was one of Apple's crispest, most elaborate, and most loaded launch events in a while. Instead of leaving the minute details in the spec sheet or fine print, Apple actually included them in its keynote presentation, not just for its big reveal but for all the devices it unveiled on September 9, 2026.

While the 'Surprise' bit was covered by the new iPhone Duo, 'Shine' probably refers to the new colors in the iPhone 18 Pro lineup. Beyond these, Apple also announced two new Apple Watches and a refresh for the regular AirPods (not the Pro ones). Given that there's a lot of ground to cover, here's everything Apple announced at its September 2026 event.

Before You Pay More for DDR5, Think About How Much Memory You Need

The MSI Cubi 5 1MA makes a strong case for looking beyond the newest specs

There is an easy trap to fall into when buying a new PC. The newer specification usually sounds like the better one, so choosing DDR5 memory over DDR4 can seem like an obvious upgrade. But with memory prices climbing to unusually high levels, it is worth asking whether you will actually benefit from paying more for that extra speed.

For many people buying a PC primarily for work, the answer comes down to how they use it. Everyday tasks such as browsing, email, spreadsheets, presentations, and video calls generally do not need the extremely high memory bandwidth DDR5 offers. Having enough RAM to keep several of those tasks running comfortably can be far more relevant.

Adobe Acrobat’s latest update could make working with PDFs considerably easier

New Acrobat features make it easier to understand, refine and present information in PDFs

This post is brought to you in paid partnership with Adobe

PDFs remain one of those unavoidable parts of working life. Reports, research papers, presentations, proposals, financial documents and client material still tend to arrive as PDFs, and the real problem is rarely opening or reading them. It is dealing with everything that comes after: finding the useful information in a lengthy document, understanding it quickly and eventually turning it into something presentable.
