First up is the new iPhone SE, representing the third iteration of Apple’s budget handset, though the new model comes with a price bump over the last one. While the physical design remains the same, the technology that powers the device has been upgraded, a point that Apple’s 38-second ad highlights in its own creative way.

Those hoping for an all-in-one iMac Pro will have been disappointed today. Instead, Apple unveiled the Mac Studio desktop and a separate 27-inch, 5K Studio Display. Aimed at professionals who want something considerably more powerful than the 24-inch iMac that launched in 2021, the combo is an impressive offering, though some elements of the Display may disappoint.

Apple also unveiled the M1 Ultra, its most power-efficient chip yet. The M1 Ultra can be used to power the Mac Studio for rapid processing and graphics performance. In the ad below, Apple features various creatives waxing lyrical about the new technology after having taken it for a test drive. “Everything just flows,” says one. “The 20-core CPU, 64-core GPU, 128GB of unified memory, and 114 billion transistors are just a few of the reasons this chip is going to enable developers and other pro users alike to create incredible things,” said Apple.

According to Apple’s ad, the upgraded 10.9-inch iPad Air is the first in the line to incorporate the company’s powerful M1 chip — the same chip found inside the iPad Pro. The fifth generation of Apple’s mid-range tablet has also made significant improvements to its front-facing camera, paving the way for better-looking FaceTime calls (for the person at the other end) and selfies. Apple’s lively 95-second ad touches on all of these features, along with several others.

The iPhone 13 Pro now comes in a new Alpine Green color, while the iPhone 13 also adds a green version to its current range of colors. Apple’s ad highlighting the new look somehow stretches to a whole 38 seconds. It’s artfully done and very, very green. It also features the message, “Now in green,” because, well, that’s it.

Apple quietly nixed this Apple Intelligence feature from iOS 18.2
Image Playground on iPad.

One of the most highly anticipated features of Apple Intelligence, Image Playground, has finally launched in the iOS 18.2 developer and public betas. This artificial intelligence tool, announced in June, enables users to create cartoon-like images from text descriptions. Unfortunately, at least in the beta version, one of Image Playground's announced features is missing.

As first noted on X (formerly Twitter) by @nicolas09f9 (via MacRumors), Image Playground was once expected to feature three design styles: Animation, Illustration, and Sketch. For whatever reason, the latter isn't a choice in the beta.

The next iPad Air may have a display we’ve waited years for

Earlier this year, Apple introduced its largest iPad Air to date, featuring a 13-inch display. However, like previous models, this display has a refresh rate of only 60Hz, which is lower than the 120Hz found on the 2024 iPad Pro. Improvements in this area may be arriving with the upcoming iPad Air.

According to an anonymous source from the popular Upgrade podcast, the 2025 iPad Air could include a 90Hz refresh rate. Similar displays might also be featured in a rumored 24-inch iMac and the next-generation Studio Display.

iPhone 17 series could finally end Apple’s stingy era of slow screens

Apple has played a relatively slow innovation game when it comes to display upgrades on its phones. The company took its own sweet time embracing OLED screens, then did the same with getting rid of the ugly notch, and still has a lot of ground to cover at adopting high refresh rate panels.

The status could finally change next year. According to Korea-based ET News, which cites an industry source, Apple will fit an LTPO (low-temperature polycrystalline oxide) screen across the entire iPhone 17 series, including the rumored slim version and the entry-point model.
