With Apple’s September event just days away, right now is probably the worst time to buy an iPhone if you’re looking to upgrade your current phone. Instead wait a couple more weeks because Apple’s new line of iPhone 16s will be announced on Monday. Not only will you have more iPhones to choose from, but you could also score a previous model at a lower price. The Apple event will be held September 9 at 1PM ET (10AM PT) at the Steve Jobs Theater at Apple Park in Cupertino. You can livestream Apple’s It’s Glowtime event on YouTube<\/a> (which we\u2019ve embedded above for your convenience), as well as on Apple\u2019s site<\/a>.<\/p>\n As far as new products go, we\u2019re expecting four new iPhone models to be announced: The iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. Don\u2019t expect a huge leap forward from the iPhone 15, which our senior editor Billy Steele called the \u201cmost substantial update to the regular iPhone in years<\/a>.\u201d Instead, the major push will be around iOS 18 and Apple Intelligence<\/a>. In terms of hardware, there’ll be the usual more powerful processor, screen sizes may adjust slightly and there\u2019s supposedly a new dedicated camera button for the Pro models.<\/p>\n Away from iPhones, we\u2019ll likely also get new Apple Watch models (Series 10 or Series \u201cX,\u201d and maybe an Ultra 3), alongside new AirPods in both entry- and Pro-level models. You can get the scoop on everything we expect at the event in our in-depth what we expect at the iPhone 16 launch<\/a> article.<\/p>\n For anyone not planning to buy any new Apple devices this year, you’ll still have access to the latest iOS 18 update<\/a>, likely later in September, as long as your device is eligible (find out here<\/a>). Here’s everything coming with the iOS 18 update<\/a> this year, including Apple Intelligence<\/a> and more home screen customization options<\/a>.<\/p>\n Engadget\u2019s Cherlynn Low and Billy Steele will be on the ground in Cupertino to liveblog the iPhone event, so look out for real-time news and analysis on September 9.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
