It's happening 😬😬😬
So what we thinking, some models go on pre-order on the 18th with deliveries expected on the 25th?

Apple Announces Digital-Only Event Set to Be Held September 15
Apple today announced on its events page that it will be holding a special event on Tuesday, September 15 at 10:00 a.m. at the Steve Jobs Theater on...www.macrumors.com
Only a week to wait to find out what we are all going to be buying.!
Time for me to get updating the first post
You're about to get busy and I suggest you block out Tuesday evening next week to update once the announcement has been made..!Time for me to get updating the first post

Would be happy with that as I’m in for a 6.1” pro in the blue.
Seems like it’s the larger and smaller 12s which will slip

Whilst that would be logical, all the rumours say delayed launch this year with deliveries in October at best. I’m massively hoping your timeline is actually right though!
*Mental note* must dump off kids somewhere next Tuesday!
I usually go on a media blackout on the day and watch the replay in the evening
I doubt it.
They've already said it'll be delayed from normal timescale. So I reckon pre-order on 25th deliveries from 2nd?
For what it's worth, I'm convinced it will be. The iPhone lineup is Apple's biggest seller, and I think they know they'd be thoroughly frustrating their loyal fans by announcing an event like this that the whole world will think is for new iPhones, and then just not mentioning it. I can well see that there will likely be a delay in the actual launch because of everything that's gone on, but my gut tells me they'll announce the new lineup next week regardless.
But what the hell do I know, I'm just some random internet forum poster! Lol
I suppose it’s happened once before in 2017 with the X, but it’s going to be a long run in if it’s the phones if we’re talking November for the Pro models ? I certainly wouldn’t back against Gurman’s view that it will be October for the phone announcement.
And so it begins, I LOVE this time of year, weather is getting cold, Halloween and bonfire night just around the corner and the annual Apple event.
Everything’s falling into place for me this year. My brother wants to buy my 11 Pro Max for his son, but for Christmas. Just asked him if he wants it now and he said “nah, Christmas will be fine”. So even though I want my 12 Pro Max NOW it makes the wait a little easier....
I might even try and get on the upgrade programme. What’s prevented me from doing so in the past is wanting the new phones on launch day. It seems trying to get on the upgrade programme for the first time takes longer? Or am I mistaken?
@wizzywig27 I also LOVE this time of year. Do not like summer at all so it’s a relief when the temperatures start to drop. Lovely!

...its already been somewhat confirmed (even here in MacRumors) that next week's event will NOT feature iPhones.

Gutted if so! I hate September’s with no new iPhone.
Just had an email from Apple about next weeks event. Mentions the new watch, iPad and the software updates, no mention at all of the new iPhone.

I would say that is more rumour than confirmation.....
Everyone is of course entitled to a view but personally, I doubt we'll see news on the new iPhones next week - especially seeing that Apple have already said they're delayed until October.
They're not gonna talk about or demo a delayed product are they - that would just make them look stupid...?!!!!

...totally makes sense if you ask me.

....also implies Apple Watch and nothing to do with iPhone.

Only delayed if they say its delayed. In my opinion a delayed product is when a company advises its release date and they then change the release date for whatever reason. If they announce it and say its released on November 6th then it isn't delayed.
Nothing states Apple have to release any product at a specific date, that's up to them.
Isn't that what they did with the iPhone X though? If my memory serves it was announced mid September, pre-ordered late October and delivered early November.
Totally agree. I think it would be daft of them not to announce the new phones now - they know keen fans expect them in September and would feel almost a bit 'let down' if they didn't announce them. Whatever date they then say they'll be available is actually then secondary, at least the addicts like us have had a fix via the announcement!
I’ve used IUP the last 3 phones and got them launch day. You do have to do it in-store
