Scheduled to be released on September 20, the iPhone 11 is Apple’s new baseline phone, and it will sell for $699. You can look at it as the upgrade to Apple’s popular iPhone XR. The device will come with Apple’s latest high-end mobile chip, the A13 Bionic processor, and it has a 6.1″ LCD display with a resolution of 1,792 by 828 pixels.
The phone also comes with dual 12 MP ultra-wide and wide cameras that have 2x optical zoom, and it is available in the following colors:
Black
Green
Yellow

iPhone 11 Pro
The iPhone 11 Pro will come in two models: the 11 Pro and the 11 Pro Max. They are effectively upgrades of Apple’s iPhone XS and XS Max. These phones will be priced at $999 and $1,099, respectively. Like with the iPhone 11, they will be available on September 20 and come with Apple’s A13 Bionic chip.
The 11 Pro includes a 5.8″ OLED display with a resolution of 2,436 by 1,125 pixels while the 11 Pro Max includes a 6.5″ OLED display with a resolution of 2,688 by 1,242 pixels. Both phones also have triple 12 MP ultra-wide, wide and telephoto cameras with 2x optical zoom.
Apple Watch Series 5
The Apple Watch Series 5 will cost $399 for a model that includes only GPS and $499 for a model that includes both GPS and cellular. The watch has an always-on display, which means that you no longer have to raise your wrist or tap the display. It also has a built-in compass, and the cellular model lets you dial emergency services throughout the world by pressing and hold the device’s side button.
Like with the iPhones, the watch will be available on September 20.
iPad
In addition to the iPhones, Apple announced a new version of its entry-level iPad. The specs are mostly similar to the previous iPad model, with the same A10 Fusion chip. But the device does have two important upgrades over its predecessor. First, the screen size has been increased from 9.7″ to 10.2″, and the device now supports Apple’s Smart Keyboard.
It will be available on September 30.
