Will apple skip event announce and just release an iphone without introduce
That is a Big Suprise |||||
No they won't skip the event, this is the 10th anniversary of the iPhone they won't miss that opportunity. Invites haven't gone out yet because the event isn't going to be until the 12th (that's what it's all pointing towards now)
I have an iPhone 7 128 GB that I'm happy with. But my wife broke her iPhone, and is on an old iPhone 5C with a broken screen as a temporary replacement until the new iPhones come out. She's probably going to go for a 7S Plus, but it really depends on what is announced. She might just get a 7 Plus at the new lower price instead.
I should note - she works for a carrier, so will get a discount on not-current-generation phones, too. (At her carrier, employees don't get discounts on the current generation phones, but a huge discount on prior-generation, even if they're still on sale.)

I would guess that most of the people following a thread about the event are looking forward to seeing it or at least getting the highlights. But it does seem that in every thread on the internet there are those people who are there just to tell everyone that they're not interested in what's being discussed.

That does seem to confirm the 12th for the event, pre-orders on the 15th probably and then a release on the 22nd
This may be the new interface on the iPhone 8, that will replace the home button;
Why apple not creating new background for ios 11 ...
this background is classic , look like on ios 7-9

I doubt it (basing my guess purely on the fact that we’ve never really been able to move status bar icons around).
I'm going to say no also because Apple doesn't have a real customisation like Android etc
I have a feeling apple will send out invitation today
Wait is Over ya ....
I don't think so. Likely This Thursday or Friday at the earliest.
I think invites will go out either Thursday (Tomorrow) or Tuesday, September 6th - they definitely won't come out on a Friday and be end of week news, and they definitely wouldn't come out on Monday (Labor Day). My money is on Tuesday, September 6th.
The 6th is less than a week before the 12th which is very short notice. I am hedging my bet on this Friday.
I like your logic but wouldn’t the first Tuesday of September be the 5th?
Didn't think about the news thing, you're right, they would want all the news to write about the invites, so next Tuesday is most likely.
Apple really going late with the invites this year, only 7 days prior.

I would say yes, as they live stream the event. If you were to miss it, Apple will also have a playback of the entire event avaible to View off their website.
The event will be on the 12th, decoration and all that stuff doesn't take Apple long to sort out, they can easily do it in a week, last year the event invites were sent out 9 days before it's easily enough time.
Pre-orders for both the 7s, 7s Plus and the iPhone 8 will probably take place on the 15th with a release on the 22nd September. I very much doubt that most people will get an iPhone 8 on release date tho if supply is an issue, however it will depend on whether people are willing to spend the £1000 on the iPhone 8, if not there might be enough available for those of us who are to receive them on launch day but we shall see.
Invites are out it's official, iPhone 8 will be announced on September 12.

Tim Cook should walk out on stage and look at the crowd and say since everyone already knows everything there's nothing else to say, drop the clicker and walk off stage
