The moment that tech and smartphone enthusiasts have been waiting for is finally here. On Monday, September 9, the launch of Apple’s iPhone 16 series will take centre stage at the Steve Jobs Theater in Cupertino headquarters after months of anticipation.

The past few months have been rife with rumours and speculation about the features and launch date of the new models. While many expected the event to fall on September 10, a recent X post from Greg Joswiak, Apple’s Senior Vice President of Marketing, confirmed the official date as September 9.

Despite the confirmed date, Apple has remained tight-lipped about the specifics of the upcoming models. However, if tradition holds, we can expect the iPhone 16 series to include four models: the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. Additionally, the launch is likely to feature the debut of the much-anticipated Apple Watch Series 10 (Apple Watch X) and the latest AirPods.

What to Expect from the iPhone 16 Series

As with all things Apple, the details surrounding the iPhone 16 series remain shrouded in mystery. However, leaks and reports hint at exciting new features, such as an innovative button designed for shooting videos and photos. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, “It will operate like a button on a DSLR camera, allowing you to press slightly to trigger autofocus. A firmer press will capture the shot. You can also swipe along the button to zoom in and out while shooting.”

In addition to this, the iPhone 16 series is rumoured to include enhanced intelligence features, like a smarter Siri, AI-powered writing tools, and even ChatGPT integration. While predictions about battery life, processing power, and design vary, we’ll have to wait until September 9 to witness the full capabilities of Apple’s latest innovations.
