iPhone 14 Event: Apple just wrapped up its big fall iPhone event where it announced new iPhones, AirPods and Apple Watches.
The new iPhones will be available to order Friday, and Apple didn’t increase the prices as some analysts had expected. The new Apple Watches will be available to order Wednesday and the new AirPods Pro launch Sept. 23.
Apple CEO Tim Cook just announced the iPhone 14 pro, the high-end models for this year.
The smaller model with a 6.1-inch screen is called the iPhone 14 Pro. The bigger model will be called the iPhone 14 Max.
Here’s what it announced:
