What's new with iPhone 18 Pro Max? Guess correctly for a chance to win an Apple Watch - ZDNET

Our gifting experts are obsessively searching for holiday gifts that are unique, thoughtful and suitable for any budget. Each prediction you get right gives an entry into the grand prize drawing. Round 2 of the big Guessing Game event is here, and we’re asking readers to predict Apple’s next moves. If you missed the first round, don’t worry — you can still play (and win!) There are five questions in each round. For every one you get right, you earn an entry into a drawing to win this year’s Apple Watch. Good luck! It’s been a big year for Apple, and if the rumor mill is at all accurate, we’re just getting started. Apple is notorious for keeping its product launches a secret, but this year could see some (very) long-awaited additions to its product lineups, including a foldable iPhone and a touchscreen MacBook.

We’re hosting a contest to see which of our readers can correctly guess Apple’s next moves. Our second round of questions launches today, July 7, and lasts until July 21. Good luck!
