The Morning After: What to expect from Apple’s iPhone 17 event today

Here is a 186-word summary of the article: Apple's annual iPhone event is set to take place today, with the company expected to unveil the iPhone 17 lineup, including the rumored iPhone Air. The iPhone Air is rumored to be the thinnest iPhone ever, even slimmer than the iPhone 6, but may have some compromises such as a single 48-megapixel camera and a smaller battery. The other iPhone 17 models are expected to feature bigger batteries, with the Pro and Pro Max variants potentially using a 48MP telephoto camera to improve digital zooming. The devices may also be accompanied by new TechWoven cases with lanyard holes. In addition to the iPhones, Apple is expected to introduce new Apple Watch models, including an updated Apple Watch Ultra, which could feature 5G connectivity and satellite texting. The AirPods Pro 3 may also be unveiled, potentially with new biometric sensors. The event is set to take place at 1PM ET/10AM PT, and Engadget will be providing live coverage. While major software announcements are not expected, the new iPhones will launch with iOS 26.
