Watch Apple’s ‘Awe Dropping’ keynote in 90 seconds

During Tuesday’s Awe Dropping event, Apple announced AirPods Pro 3, refreshed every model of Apple Watch and unveiled four all-new iPhones, including the first iPhone Air. It’s an impressive set of products in a pretty quick event.

But if you want to watch an even faster event, you can get the gist in 90 seconds with our Awe Dropping event video recap.

iPhone 17 keynote recap: Watch the event in 90 seconds

The AirPods Pro 3 and the stunning new iPhone Air stole the show. But there’s much more to Apple’s Awe Dropping event. Every Apple Watch got a hearty update, even the oft-neglected Apple Watch SE.

The entire iPhone 17 lineup looks impressive, with a much-upgraded Center Stage camera (that can record simultaneously with the rear camera) and a big update to the telephoto sensor on the Pro models. But best of all, the Pro models come in a vivid color for the first time: cosmic orange.

See all the highlights here:

AirPods Pro 3

AirPods Pro 3 sound like a solid upgrade from the (admittedly great) AirPods Pro 2:

• AirPods Pro 3 benefit from a new earbud design and foam-infused tips that add up to twice the active noise cancellation of prior models, and four times that of the AirPods 4 with ANC.
• Live translation works with Apple Intelligence to translate people speaking in foreign languages in real time. Your iPhone displays your translations. If you’re both wearing AirPods Pro, you can have a live two-way conversation through the earbuds.
• Heart rate sensing comes to AirPods for the first time, in 50 workouts.
• Despite the new features, AirPods Pro 3 cost the same as AirPods Pro 2: $249.

Apple Watch Series 11, Apple Watch Ultra 3 and Apple Watch SE 3

All three Apple Watch models added new features:

• Apple Watch Series 11 offers twice the scratch resistance as Series 10.
• It can detect signs of hypertension by seeing how your blood vessels respond to your heartbeat.
• You’ll get a sleep score based on the quality of your sleep.
• Battery life jumps to 24 hours.
• It carries the same $399 price as Apple Watch Series 10.
• Apple Watch SE 3 gains great features like Apple’s S10 chip, an always-on display, new gestures and temperature sensing. And yet it remains at the previous version’s entry-level price of $249.
• Apple Watch Ultra 3 comes with a slightly bigger display, 42 hours of battery life, satellite connectivity and a new Waypoint watch face at $799.
• All cellular models come with 5G connectivity.

iPhone 17 recap

Apple shook up the iPhone lineup this year, redesigning the Pro models and adding the super-slim iPhone Air. And the “regular” iPhone 17 got some great new features, too:

The iPhone Air’s gorgeous, slender design is just the start for this innovative device:
