Apple has finally announced the official date for the highly anticipated iPhone 16 launch event, and the tech world is in a frenzy. Mark your calendars for Monday, September 9th because that’s when Apple will unveil the latest innovations at the iconic Steve Jobs Theater in Cupertino, California.
The upcoming event of the introduction of the new iPhone 16 series is one of the most awaited, coupled with further updates in the Apple Watch lineup and, possibly, even newer AirPods. This is going to make it one of those live Apple events. Let’s look at what to expect at the upcoming Apple event.
iPhone 16 Launch Event Officially Announced
What to Expect during the Launch Event of the iPhone 16?
Without a doubt, the iPhone 16 series is slated to take all the limelight, in which the brand shall most likely launch four new models: the standard iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus, followed by the more premium iPhone 16 Pro and the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
In each case, this almost certainly will mean an incremental enhancement over the previous iteration, be it in camera, processing power, most likely battery capabilities, and more.
But ring up now, as there is more. To supposedly release with the iPhone 16 is a lineup of new releases in the series of Apple Watches. It will be named the Apple Watch Series 10, which many commonly refer to as the Apple Watch X.
At the same time, a next-gen model, to be named the Apple Watch Ultra, also appears, to be called the Ultra 3. And last but not least, there’s going to be the Apple Watch SE 3, which will offer a relatively cheap way into the ecosystem.
And let’s not forget the other potential news from the company at the event—AirPods. While that remains part of the rumors, there is a greater possibility for Apple to surprise us with the introduction of a brand-new model of AirPods.
It could be an update to the current AirPods lineup or a new over-ear headphone. That’s one thing Apple does well—surprises.
After that, everybody will inevitably think, “When is it going to be my turn for this iPhone 16?” In general, Apple has begun to take pre-orders for new iPhones just less than one week after their launch event.
Assuming that history repeats itself, then you would be able to start getting your pre-orders in on either September 12 or 13. The official release date will follow, as it always does, around September 19th or 20th, when the iPhone 16 series hits store shelves.
That means, in a few short weeks, we’ll be seeing the iPhone 16 in the hands of Apple onlookers across the globe.
Price and Rumors: How Much Will the iPhone 16 Cost?
There is no more pointed question among the many questions on the minds of Apple fans with every new iPhone presented than how much the phone will cost. While Apple has not yet announced prices, rumor has it that the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will likely see a slight price increase compared to last year.
But the latest regular iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus hopefully will keep the price scheme of their ancestors, something to soothe the thrifty center of many people who might not want to go bankrupt for a new device.
Considering the rising prices of materials and the demands of higher-end technology, a small price bump wouldn’t be too surprising. But, then again, the cost would be derived from Apple’s signature cutting-edge features and top-notch build quality.
