“Time Flies” is the name of the event to be held by Apple
This September 15, starting at 10 AM PDT (14 hours Argentina, 12 hours Mexico) Apple will host a streaming event from its headquarters in Apple Park, California. In this virtual meeting, which can be followed by streaming from the official channels of the company, new products will be released.
While there is great anticipation for the iPhone 12, rumors indicate that the new smartphone will not be released today. In fact, the company confirmed a few weeks ago that, due to production delays due to the pandemic, the launch of the new smartphone was delayed.
Usually Apple launches its new phone in September, but everything indicates that this took at least a month. But then, what can be seen in this meeting? It is estimated that the company will present two new watches and a new iPad, as well as some other surprises.

The event is called Time Flies (The flying time). On the cover you can see the icon of the company: the famous apple that, in this case, is in blue. For almost a week the company announced the realization of this event and, as often happens, expectations began to be generated and rumors increased in relation to what will be launched.
One of the products expected to see today is the Apple Watch 6 which, according to some leaks, would include a microLed screen, which would give it greater energy efficiency and Touch ID. It is known that it will include an app to monitor the quality of sleep and it is expected that it will include a sensor to measure the level of oxygen in the blood. It is estimated that it will include optimized battery and processor as well as other improvements at the software level.
It is also rumored that the company would introduce a cheaper smartwatch that will include some features of the Apple Watch 5 but probably in a new case with some changes in the design. This is in line with the introduction in March of a more affordable phone: the iPhone SE 2.

Some rumors suggest that the anticipated AirTags will finally be presented that serve to add to different objects in order to be able to track them, in case they are lost from sight. Another of the surprises that could see the light in this event are the AirPod Studio headphones and a new version of the HomePod smart speaker.
A little less than a month ago, Apple made headlines for becoming the first publicly traded US company to reach $ 2 trillion in valuation. In this way, the Cupertino giant managed to double its value in just over two years, after the company first reached a billion dollars of capitalization on August 2, 2018, becoming the first company in more than one decade to do so, after PetroChina achieved a 13-digit capitalization after its debut on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in November 2007.
Apple is followed by other tech companies, including Amazon, Microsoft and Google’s parent Alphabet, all of which now have more than $ 1 trillion in market value.
