Apple set to unveil two new iPhones and more powerful iPad

Apple is set to announce two new iPhones and a larger, more powerful iPad later this week. The technology firm is hosting a live event on Wednesday where it will unveil its latest line of products, including new versions of the iPhone, said to be called the 6s and 6s Plus. Both phones are reported to contain pressure sensors in the screen - a technology called Force Touch that is already used on the Apple Watch, which enables users to perform different actions by tapping and pressing more firmly.

It’s safe to say that we can rely on a new iPhone being unveiled on Wednesday. What might be more interesting is everything else.

Reports also suggest the much-anticipated iPad Pro, a larger version of Apple’s tablet that will have power similar to a laptop and a 12.9in screen, could be confirmed. TV is also set to be on the agenda, with the Cupertino-based firm’s Apple TV streaming box set for its first update in three years. Having been announced at the same event last year, the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus received four million pre-orders on their first day of availability. More than 70 million were sold in three months, leading Apple to record the largest ever quarterly profit from a public company of $18.3 billion.
