Apple likely to launch iPhone 18 series in September

Apple is expected to launch its new iPhone 18 lineup this September. According to rumors, the company may introduce three main models: the iPhone 18 Pro, the iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable phone, which could be called the iPhone Ultra or iPhone Fold.

The exact launch date has not been confirmed yet, but Apple usually holds its biggest event in September. This event often introduces new iPhones and other products. After the announcement, the devices typically go on sale within two weeks.

Apple’s fall event usually also includes updates to the Apple Watch and sometimes new AirPods. The event is often held in the first half of September, mostly on a Tuesday or Wednesday.

Right now, possible dates for the event are September 8 or 9. It could also happen the following week on September 15 or 16. However, September 8 seems less likely because it comes right after Labor Day, and Apple usually avoids that timing.

If Apple chooses September 9, it would match the pattern of recent years. The company may also move the event to the next week if needed.

Even though launching a foldable iPhone could be challenging, Apple is known for sticking to its schedule. Based on past trends, September 9 looks like the most likely date for the iPhone 18 launch event.
