Buying a new iPhone in the next week? Hold off if you can because Apple’s iPhone 16 event is this coming Monday, which means you can buy the newer model or snag the iPhone 15 at a cheaper price later this month. The Apple event will be held September 9 at 1PM EST (10AM PST) at the Steve Jobs Theater at Apple Park in Cupertino. You can livestream Apple’s It’s Glowtime event on Youtube (which we’ve embedded here for your convenience), as well as on Apple’s site.
As far as new products go, expect the usual September upgrades – a new iPhone 16 lineup alongside new Apple Watch models (Series 10 or Series “X,” and maybe an Ultra 3). New AirPods in both entry- and Pro-level models could also be showcased at the Apple event.
As for the iPhone 16 models, not much is expected to change from last year’s model, which Engadget’s Billy Steele called the “most substantial update to the regular iPhone in years.” Look for the iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max, with a slight increase in size and a new camera button on the latter two compared to the 2023 models, per most of the rumors.
For anyone not planning to buy any new Apple devices this year, you’ll still have access to the latest iOS 18 update, likely later in September, as long as your device is eligible (find out here). Here’s everything coming with the iOS 18 update this year, including Apple Intelligence and more home screen customization options.
Engadget will also be liveblogging the September 9 iPhone event from the ground in Cupertino with real-time news and analysis.
