Apple has announced that its upcoming launch event, themed “Surprise and Shine,” will be held on September 9 at the Apple Park Campus in Cupertino, California, starting at 10 am PT. The event is noteworthy as it is rumored to feature the unveiling of Apple’s long-anticipated foldable iPhone. Additionally, this will mark the first Apple event led by John Ternus, who is set to succeed Tim Cook as CEO on September 1.
The event is expected to showcase the new iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, though reports suggest these models will represent relatively incremental upgrades rather than a significant redesign. The standard iPhone 18 is not anticipated to be introduced until the following year. Alongside the new iPhones, Apple is also rumored to present the Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra, as well as new smart home devices. Furthermore, the company may announce release dates for upcoming software updates, including iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS Golden Gate. Source
