"Apple's 2025 fall event was not the splashiest set of announcements in the company's history. Some phones, some watches, some headphones, some cases. Some good stuff! But there was only one thing that seemingly caused deep feelings in everyone, both live in Cupertino and online: the orange iPhone. On this episode of The Vergecast, we talk a lot about the orange iPhone. We also talk through all the rest of Apple's announcements!"
"First, The Verge's Allison Johnson joins the show to discuss the super-thin iPhone Air, and the new iPhone 17 and 17 Pro models. The base model looks better than ever, we have lots of questions about cameras, and it turns out that a really thin phone actually might matter after all. After that, The Verge's Victoria Song joins to talk all things wearables. We chat about the new AirPods Pro 3, which might be the most straightforwardly awesome new thing Apple announced this week."
"We also talk about what's the same and what's different about the new Apple Watch SE, Apple Watch Series 11, and Apple Watch Ultra 3. Apple's wearable story is increasingly a health story, and we have some thoughts. Finally, The Verge's Jake Kastrenakes tells us the tale of his very first journey to Apple Park, and what it's like to cover one of these events in person."
The orange iPhone generated the strongest reactions at Apple's 2025 fall event. Apple introduced a super-thin iPhone Air alongside the new iPhone 17 and 17 Pro models. The base iPhone appears improved, with lingering questions about camera performance and evidence that extreme thinness can matter. Wearable updates include AirPods Pro 3, Apple Watch SE, Apple Watch Series 11, and Apple Watch Ultra 3, with an increasing emphasis on health features. The company pushed accessories, showcased technologies like Liquid Glass, and offered on-site perspectives about attending Apple Park and covering the event in person.
