Just cos it was uploaded then, doesn’t mean it was taken at that time. You’re missing my point that you’re basing it on assumption. It could have been taken in May/June when filming for WWDC was being done.

so, unless you can get confirmation of when it was actually taken, it’s pointless using it for confirmation they were filming the other week.

Additionally, as I said, they don’t film the entire video in the same day. It was spread out over a few weeks to a month for the last few events. So even if they were filming the other week (which is possibke), they might only be at the first lot of filming with more over the next month.
Maybe watch this video below if you really need a confirmation. No one seems to know anything nowadays it's all based on speculation and best estimated guess. Perhaps, it is Apple. Anything is possible.

Whenever it’s been taken, iPhone events have been happening in September for the past few years anyways. There is nothing to suggest this year would be different. I’m not sure why we are getting excited over a photo which proves nothing and does not give any indication to make us think something different would happen from the usual.

I don’t watch random YouTube videos, and if that video is just someone saying that they must have filmed it cos the orofile pic was updated, then that’s not worth basing your point on.

As I stated, just cos they might have been filming the other week, doesn’t mean it’s imminent, as it could have just been the beginning of filming, which we know they do over a few weeks to a month.

tl:dr a profile does not confirm when it was taken, and for what was being filmed, or as to the timeframe for the video being released.

After all it's all speculation. We should be able to find out within two weeks now :)

I'll be watching the Fall iPhone event and If I spot Lisa talking on the stage and sitting down. You'll be the first person I'll holler at. So, make sure you wave at me with a smiley face haha! :)

exactly. Plus, with all the reports of various shortages, shipping delays and whatnot for tech this year, it’s possible it’s gonna be later in September than usual.

Look at last year, the staggered release for the watch and the phones, this year could be similar.

I’m just trying to point out that nothing is certain this year, we cannot assume that it’s gonna be like iOS 13 and the iPhone 11 release style.

I’m not saying that it’s not for the fall video. I’m just taking it with a grain of salt, as there’s no corroborating context for a profile picture. I could update my profile picture with one taken last year, lol.

also, you’re presenting the picture as if filming has been finished and the event is gonna be within 2 weeks. The event is not gonna be within 2 weeks. It’s 3 weeks, at the earliest.

The chip shortage won't be affecting Apple, Buddy :) Apple placed and secured their orders way ahead of the time :)

Current component and chip shortages plaguing the smartphone industry are now affecting "everybody but Apple," according to new wireless industry research.

"Sources have told Wave7 Research that Apple was able to lock down chipset supply well ahead of time. This was not the case for other OEMs," Wave7 Research's Jeff More told PCMag.

Assuming that insider is reliable lol. People made same claims last year and they were wrong.

Perhaps we will at least get our iPhone event invites within 2 weeks to be exact.

I’ve not seen anything to indicate we’re getting anything earlier than mid September for an event, so I’m sticking with mid to late September, minimum of 3 weeks from now.

You always post ridiculous expectations and claims of things happening, which are 99% wrong….. But maybe this is a 1% time where you’re right….

though invites are usually a full 2 weeks before the event, aren’t they, and we’ve not seen them sent out yet, so it’s not looking good buddy….

I can confirm as fact that Apple "stole" chips from one of my products causing me to discontinue it/swap it out with another product because the chip supplier chose to supply Apple and not me....and I don't blame them...hah!

I respect what you are saying to me. But you don't have to be rude and disrespectful, friend. If you don't like what I post. Please put me on the ignore list and don't bother replying to my posts. Don't waste your time. :) Good luck and have a good life.

I was just fact checking your claims, so other people don’t take them as gospel. There was no disrespect in there, if you perceived disrespect, that’s purely on you.

They might have done, but have they got enough to ship all products at the same sort of time, or is the expectation of the chips they stole based on the staggered release like last year.

This is a speculation thread not a fact checking thread. Whatever makes you happy and satisfy. I just hope you have a good day today :)

I have no clue on that, but they needed them ASAP back in June, so I'm guessing design was finalized and production started around then.

There’s speculation and fantasy, and I was stating that you tend to be more on the fantasy end, as per all your posts for your speculation, you don’t ever account for real world info, history etc. Speculation has to have a basis in reality, for it to be meaningful.

I wasn’t saying it was a bad thing. You obviously took it the wrong way.

Last year, there were rumours that the iPhone 12 will be delayed pretty much from the spring onwards. This year there is nothing to suggest such development. There will be an event in September, that’s certain. If it’s going to be during the second or the third week doesn’t really change anything.
