【Watch Good Boys Use Condoms (1998)】

Apple held its major iPhone event on Watch Good Boys Use Condoms (1998)Tuesday and — surprise! — the company dropped its highly anticipated iPhone 15, iPhone Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max. But that's hardly all Apple announced at the event.

Luckily we've collected all the big announcements and all you need to know in one place. Let's get into it.

iPhone 15 and 15 Plus

Duh, we have to start here. Apple dropped the latest version of its flagship product. The new, more basic version of the iPhone comes with improved performance, a better camera, USB-C charging and Dynamic Island, the shifting widget that killed the dreaded notch. The iPhone 15 starts at $799, while the Plus starts at $899:

• The 6.1-inchiPhone 15

• The 6.7-inchiPhone 15 Plus

iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max

Apple upgraded its priciest iPhones, even if they look largely the same. The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max are now made of titanium, meaning they're more durable and lighter. It also has a new, customizable Action Button, which replaces the mute switch. iPhone 15 Pro starts at $999, while the Pro Max starts at $1,199:

• The 6.1-inch iPhone 15 Pro

• The 6.7-inchiPhone 15 Pro Max

Dynamic Island for all

Apple announced that all versions of iPhone 15 would get Dynamic Island, the widget near the top of iPhone screens that shifts with users' needs. It debuted with the iPhone 14 Pro, but now it's coming standard with all the new iPhones. As Mashable's Alex Perry wrote, this means we can say goodbye to the infamous iPhone notch.

USB-C charging

Apple, as everyone suspected, said on Tuesday it would shift iPhone to USB-C charging. This is a huge relief for folks whose Lightning ports often break or for iPhone users looking to grab a charge from Android pals. Users have long desired this shift, but it comes only after the European Union passed a law requiring universal USB-C charging compatibility by 2024.

So long, leather

Apple spent a good portion of the keynote highlighting its environmental efforts. Among those efforts: the elimination of leather products. Apple Watch bands will now be made with a material the company dubbed "FineWoven," which apparently has a suede-like texture.

Spatial video

Apple announced Tuesday that the iPhone 15 Pro will let users record spatial video. This is a feature designed to work in concert with Apple's forthcoming Vision Pro headset. It means you can take a video and then be immersed in it with your headset.
