The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models will come with a boatload of major changes in terms of design and new features. The company will potentially send out event invites in the coming weeks but has not shared a word on the event date. We are now hearing that the company will host its special event on September 12 to announce the new iPhone 15 lineup and Apple Watch Series 9.
iPhone 15 event is expected to take place on September 12, while the launch is expected on September 22
Typically, Apple sets the iPhone 15 launch event date in the first half of September. Following the announcement, the devices go on sale a week after. While the company has not announced its dates yet, prominent industry analyst Mark Gurman states that Apple will host its iPhone 15 launch event on September 12. Additionally, it will likely be an in-person event, similar to the WWDC 2023 event in June. It will potentially be a pre-recorded event, following the same format as 2022.
It was previously coined by the analyst that the event could take place on either September 12 or 13 but in his latest tweet, Gurman suggests that "signs are increasingly pointing to Sept.12" as the iPhone 14 launch event date. However, he also mentions that these are mere speculations and that the company could announce the event at another date.
If the company does hold its special event on September 12, it would mean that the devices will be available for pre-order on the 15th while the devices will hit the shelves on September 22. However, as the analyst notes, be sure to take the news with a grain of salt since the final word rests with Apple. At the event, the company will announce its highly anticipated iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models alongside the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2.
The iPhone 15 models are expected to bring Dynamic Island with upgraded internals and an improved camera system. Additionally, USB-C would replace the Lightning port on the entire lineup. For the 'Pro' models, we are expecting a 3nm A17 Bionic chip for enhanced performance and efficiency alongside upgraded camera sensors for better low-light photography. In terms of design, the iPhone 15 Pro will feature a new Action Button instead of the Mute Switch enclosed in a grade 5 titanium housing.
These major changes would potentially make the iPhone 15 lineup worth the upgrade, but the company is also expected to increase the prices. The iPhone 15 models could see a minor price increase, while the 'Pro' models are speculated to go up by as much as $200. We will be covering the iPhone 15 launch event in extensive detail, so be sure to stick around.
