The Apple Event conference in the early morning of September 10th (next Thursday) Hong Kong time will launch a number of new products. In contrast, many existing products will complete the sales cycle and step down to bid farewell to the market.
According to foreign media’s reference to new product information released from existing Apple Events, it is believed that 11 products will be removed from the Apple Store after the Apple Event (see the picture below):

Among them, the iPhone 17 Pro / Pro Max phones will definitely be removed from the shelves after the replacement. The iPhone 16 / iPhone 16 Plus, which are currently relatively cheap options, may also exit the market, and the position will be taken up by the iPhone 17 series;
And because it was reported earlier that the Apple Event would announce a new generation of AirPods 5 series of true wireless headphones, the AirPods 4 series, which has only been on the market for 2 years, may leave the market one year earlier than its predecessor.
Mobile Magazine’s short comment: Although there is information that the iPhone 18 standard version may not appear at this Apple Event, the earlier iPhone 16 series may still be removed from the shelves due to product replacement.
