As it’s been doing every September 9 for the past few years, Apple Inc. will launch its next iteration of iPhones on the same day this year. According to reports, such as one from Buzzfeed, there are multiple sources familiar with the plans, which will most likely be unveiled at a special event.
The Cupertino, CA company usually holds its iPhone announcements in early September and releases the devices about a week later, leaving itself time for the upcoming holiday season.
Although the tech giant has not made any official announcements on upcoming launch events, it’s reportedly adding Force Touch technology to its next-generation iPhones, which are sensors in the smartphone’s display that can detect how hard a user is pressing the screen. The iPhone 6S will also feature an A9 processor, an improved camera system, and a faster LTE chip.

Apple sold 47.5 million iPhones, a 35% gain, in the fiscal third quarter that ended in June, while analysts had anticipated 48.8 million shipments. According to analyst, Abhey Lambda, lots of people are jumping to the larger-screened iPhones.
But Apple’s big reveal won’t just be centered around the new iPhones. According to sources, Apple executives are likely to show off the company’s latest iPads as well. And here’s another bonus: the next generation of the company’s Apple TV set-top box, which hasn’t been updated for more than two years, may also be unveiled in September.
It’s looking like an exciting month for Apple enthusiasts, that’s for sure.
