Apple to debut the iPhone 14 on September 7
Apple has set the date for its latest iPhone’s debut. The new device, which is expected to be called the iphone 14 and include an always-on display, will be unveiled on September 7, 10am PT. Rumors suggest the new iPhone lineup will nix the Mini in favor of a new Max model, joining the rumored iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max, and potentially increase the price by $100 over last year’s. Apple may also have plans to excise the iphone 14’s notch in favor of a hole-and-pill shaped front camera, at least for the Pro models.
In addition to the iPhone 14, Apple’s may also use the event to unveil the Apple Watch Series 8, which will reportedly look similar to last year’s model but have more health features such as a fever sensor, as well as improved durability.
The tech giant has invited press to its Apple Park headquarters in California for the event, though it’ll also offer a livestream on Apple.com and other streaming services. As is typical, Apple didn’t say much in its invitation about its upcoming iPhone event. The invitation shows an Apple logo seemingly set in a night sky, suggesting potential camera improvements or last year’s rumored satellite emergency calling. The image looks like something we might see from the James Webb Space Telescope, whose stunning photos have already begun changing how we see the cosmos since first being released earlier this summer. In its announcement, Apple included the teaser words “Far out.”
The new features for both the iPhone 14 and Apple Watch 8 may help Apple stand out from Samsung and other device makers during what is expected to be heightened competition this year. People have been cutting back on tech purchases, leading to surprisingly low sales reports from chipmaker intels, as well as sudden ad business shortfalls for Google parent Alphabet and Facebook Parent Meta. And they’re not alone.
