Apple's upcoming fall showcase is already fueling speculation, and a recent reader poll offers a clear snapshot of what fans expect to see. The biggest attention is on the company's first foldable iPhone, a device that could mark a major design shift for the iPhone lineup.
Foldable iPhone: name and price take center stage
Among the naming options, iPhone Ultra emerged as a popular pick, though readers were split on whether Apple will choose that label or go in a different direction. Pricing expectations were equally ambitious, with many respondents predicting a premium launch price above $2,000. That outlook reflects both the complexity of foldable hardware and Apple's reputation for high-end positioning.
iPhone 18 Pro and Apple Watch predictions
Beyond the foldable model, readers also expect the iPhone 18 Pro to feature a smaller Dynamic Island, hinting at Apple's continued push toward a cleaner front display. In wearables, the next Apple Watch is widely expected to expand health tracking with body temperature measurement, building on the company's growing sensor-focused strategy.
AirPods and AI possibilities
Another idea drawing attention is a new generation of AirPods with built-in cameras. Rather than serving as a photography tool, the concept is tied to AI-powered visual awareness, potentially allowing Siri to better understand the user's surroundings. While many readers remain skeptical, the idea points to a future where earbuds could become even more intelligent and interactive.
Apple's fall announcements may show how hardware, health, and AI are converging into a more connected everyday experience, shaping the next phase of personal technology.
