Apple September 2026: Announced Products & Where to Get them in Qatar
It's official. Apple's "Surprise and shine" keynote wrapped up last night, and the headlines are exactly as big as the rumors promised: a genuine foldable iPhone, a refreshed Pro lineup, and new wearables across the board. Below is the full rundown of everything Apple officially announced at the September 2026 event — sourced directly from Apple's own newsroom and product pages — with real prices, real colors, real release dates, plus approximate Qatar pricing and exactly how to pre-order each one through JS.QA.

iPhone 18 Pro & iPhone 18 Pro Max: Official Price, Colors & Release Date
Per Apple's official announcement, the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max are built around the new A20 Pro chip — a 2-nanometer chip with a 6-core CPU, a 7-core GPU (up to 40% faster than the A19 Pro), and a dual 16-core Neural Engine with double the AI processing power. Both models pair it with Apple's new C2 modem and the N1 wireless chip (Wi‑Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, Thread).

A redesigned vapor chamber, three times larger than on the iPhone 17 Pro, enables up to 40% better sustained performance, and the Dynamic Island has been redesigned smaller while now showing up to three Live Activities at once, alongside Face ID.
