iPhone 16 September event date confirmed by Apple: 'It's Glowtime'

The iPhone 16 event date is Sept. 9, according to an X post from Greg Joswiak, Apple's senior vice president of marketing.

This is a slight departure from the Sept. 10 prediction from respected Bloomberg leaker and Apple analyst Mark Gurman who reported that the iPhone 16 event date is Sept. 10.

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max models, on the other hand, will reportedly get an updated ultrawide sensor, improved Night Mode, a new "Desert Titanium" color, and more (as well as the capture button that will be featured on the lower-tier iPhone 16 models.)

In addition to the iPhone 16, according to Gurman, we're expecting the following:

• Apple Watch Series 10

• Apple Watch Ultra 3

• Apple AirPods 4

Based on the glowy Apple icon on the event invite, we're expecting some new information regarding Apple Intelligence as well.
