Apple Unveils Exciting New Products, But No More Chargers

Author Aimee Thomas
Apple CEO Tim Cook delivers the keynote address during a special event on September 10, 2019 in the Steve Jobs Theater on Apple's Cupertino, California campus. Apple unveiled several new products including an iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, Apple Watch Series 5 and seventh-generation iPad.

Apple, the tech giant, never fails to keep its loyal fans excited with their product rollouts. This September 12th event is no different. The ‘Wonderlust‘ event is set to unveil the latest Apple products, including the new iPhones and Apple Watches. Apple users are excited about these new releases, but a piece of news caught everyone’s attention…the newest iPhones will no longer come bundled with chargers or have the same charging port.

Apple never skimps on features and specs when it comes to their new releases, and the latest iPhone lineup is not an exception. The iPhone 15 and 15 Plus will cater to the lower-end market, while the higher-end models are the stars of the show. Fans look forward to the rumored improved camera systems, faster chipsets, and better battery life. The Apple Watch Series 9 is also set to launch, along with the 2nd gen version of the Ultra, their top-end smartwatch.

Apple has always been known for delivering top-quality products, and they don’t disappoint in this latest product rollout.

However, the absence of chargers as a bundled accessory came as sad news to some fans, though it has been rumored to happen soon. Fans of the AirPods have something to look forward to as well. The latest AirPods model will feature a USB-C charging port, a welcome change from the previous lighting port. The new EU regulations also mandate all new iPhones to come with the updated connector, so at least purchasing the new iPhone can save you a separate AirPods charger.

Apple’s latest product rollout, Wonderlust, continues to excite fans with their newest iPhones and Apple Watches. Consumers can still look forward to the latest AirPods model with a USB-C charger and the new EU regulation’s updated connector. Apple has always been known for producing top-quality products, and with this move towards sustainability, they’ve now set the bar even higher.

Check out the special event on Tuesday, September 12th.

Aimee Thomas is the morning show co-host of Aimee + Shawn on 102.7 VGS. She has been VGS since the birth of the station in 2022 and has been with Beasley Media Group for nine years doing mornings at various stations in the cluster. Before working in radio Aimee was a bartender at a local restaurant in Las Vegas when a local radio veteran thought she would be perfect in radio because of her crazy stories, knowledge of pop culture, and contagious laugh. Aimee loves writing about new recipes she creates in her kitchen, her favorite artists and actors, and being a mom of two boys.

Here’s What You Missed On Aimee+Shawn This Week

It’s was a big week on the show that, frankly, Aimee was not present for. She was in studio, of course. But that was just a small contractual obligation standing between her and the Beyoncé concert this weekend. She’s been waiting a year for this moment and we won’t take it away from her. Plus, all week we qualified listeners to dance for our last pair of tickets in the Beyoncé Cuff It Choreography Catastrophe.

While Aimee does have tickets to Beyoncé, she doesn’t own an umbrella. It burned her last weekend when she went to watch her son play football. Everyone but her had an umbrella. While she doesn’t own one, she saw plenty of faux pas that she would like to see come to an end.

There was a story about a dog eating the passport of a guy who was set to fly to Italy for his wedding. It got us to the topic of what we’d do different for our big day if we had to do it over again. And we know some of you are saying “my spouse.”

Shawn is dealing with a co-worker who is brazenly swiping energy drinks from his fridge. What can Shawn do about it? Ex-lax? Security cameras? What do you do?!

Turns out there are several states that let teachers spank their students. The American Academy of Pediatrics is calling for an end to the practice. Aimee+Shawn daydream about what we’d do if a teacher decided to hit our kid.

As it is, Aimee already hits her kids enough. Heck, she even made her older son film it! TikTok took issue with this…

What’s happening on Aimee+Shawn next week?

Lady Gaga has an amazing Jazz and Piano residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM and we’ll have your tickets during the show! Plus tickets to see Weezer on Friday at Planet Hollywood!

  • Aimee Doesn't Own An Umbrella But Knows How You Should Use One
