Potential iPhone 16 launch date leaked
It is a given that Apple will release the iPhone 16 this year, but when? Thanks to a report from CNMO, the potential launch date of the iPhone 16 has been revealed to be on the 10th of September, 2024.
This is actually a couple of days earlier compared to the iPhone 15 series which launched on the 12th of September. The 10th of September is a Tuesday, similar to the iPhone 15 which launched on a Tuesday. Apple typically schedules its releases for Tuesdays. However, the iPhone 14 did break tradition with a Wednesday launch.
The iPhone 16 series is expected to see pretty substantial upgrades. The new iPhone 16s will be powered by the A18 chipset. This is a 3nm chipset, similar to the A17, but it is expected to be built on TSMC’s newer 3nm process. The iPhone 16 Pro Max is also rumored to get a screen upgrade. It will go from 6.7-inches to 6.9-inches. There are rumors that the thinner bezels should keep the dimensions roughly similar to its predecessor.
Unfortunately, it is expected that Apple Intelligence will not launch with the new models. Apple is rumored to release it later on in the iOS 18.1 update. In any case, take this report with a grain of salt. But with September creeping up, we should have the official iPhone 16 launch date soon enough!
