On September 7 2021, Apple announced the date, time and location of their next highly anticipated event. Fans can rejoice, as the upcoming Apple event dubbed “California Streaming” will air in only a few days. The event will take place on September 14 2021 at 10:00AM PST. Once again, the event will be entirely virtual. This is Apple’s third event of 2021, and potentially the last. With the recent release of two new Samsung Galaxy devices, as well as the announcement of the Pixel 6, all eyes are on Apple and the iPhone 13 right now. Before the approaching livestream, we wanted to go over some of the most obvious reveals. In addition, we will discuss a few highly anticipated announcements fans will be crossing their fingers for.
What to Expect from the Upcoming Apple Event
The Apple event from April 20 2021 introduced the new iMac and iPad Pro. Meanwhile, the annual WWDC (Worldwide Developers’ Conference) on June 7 2021 focused on the new operating systems for iPhone, iMac, iPad and Apple Watch. Thus, the California Streaming event will focus on the company’s new devices slated to release this Fall. Overall, we think there are three devices that will be unveiled.
iPhone 13
Obviously, Apple will reveal their latest flagship smartphones. With the new devices from their customers, as well as numerous rumours pointing towards a Fall release, it seems impossible that Apple wouldn’t capitalize on the hype. Expect an overview, demonstration and release date of the iPhone 13. Most likely, they will release the iPhone 13 alongside the iPhone 13 Mini, 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max.

Apple Watch 7
With WatchOS 8 being unveiled at the recent WWDC conference, it makes perfect sense for the latest Apple Watch design to be officially announced. By wielding an upgraded operating system, the newest Apple Watch will be one of the most popular smartwatches on the market. Fans should expect a design upgrade, improved battery life and brand new features.
AirPods 3
Although less likely than the iPhone 13 and Apple Watch 7, we’re still expecting an official announcement regarding the new AirPods 3. As a slight upgrade to the AirPods Pro, the newest model will improve upon its predecessors in several ways. Rumours suggest that the new AirPods could have a smaller charging case, a shorter stem that sticks out of your ears, and rubber earbud tips that can be easily swapped out.
Wishful Thinking: What We Want From the Apple Event
While the previous three devices are shoo-ins for the upcoming Apple event, we wanted to focus on some potential announcements that are less likely. Firstly, new announcements regarding the iPad. While all iPad models have received upgrades this year, there have been no official announcements regarding the iPad Mini. If Apple wants to keep interest alive in the Mini, they should announce the iPad Mini 6 on September 14. Additionally, we wouldn’t mind an official announcement of the ninth-generation iPad. With an upgraded design and new features, Apple could unveil one of the most powerful tablets in the world.
Lastly, we are crossing our fingers for new announcements regarding MacBooks. With the introduction of the M1 chip in 2020, fans have been eagerly anticipating a MacBook Pro with the ability to wield M1 technology. While M1 desktop computers have already hit shelves, the possibility of the power of M1 on the go is beyond exciting. Apple users could have their hands on a powerful laptop capable of processing speeds, gaming and streaming unlike any previous MacBook device.
Overall, it is not as likely for us to see announcements regarding new iPads or MacBooks, but we’ll keep our fingers crossed. Fortunately, all our questions and speculations will be answered in only a few days. Regardless of whether all our predictions are met or not, fans should expect the upcoming Apple event to be an exciting occurrence that will be discussed in the tech world for weeks to come.
