Apple iphone 6s/7 likely to launch on September 8 or 9
Aug 15, 2015 under Science & Tech 185
The new handset is likely to be launched during a keynote speech by Apple chief executive Tim Cook, with additional speeches from senior vice president of worldwide marketing Phil Schiller and senior vice president of internet software and services Eddy Cue, who helped to showcase the 6 and 6 Plus last year.
The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus was announced on September 9, 2014, the 5s and 5c on September 10, and the 5 on September 12, so the second week in September is a good bet. The last two events have been on a Tuesday and the 5's announcement was a Wednesday, so September 8 or 9 appears the most likely announcement date. According to reports, Wednesday September 9 has been pencilled in.
The new model will run iOS 9, the newest version of Apple's iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch software which was announced at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in early June.
Updates and features include Siri becoming more proactive in recognising your behaviour, longer battery life and improvements to existing apps including Maps and Notes. The new News app aims to provide an experience akin to reading a magazine, with big glossy visuals.
Its not clear whether the company is going to reveal the latest device as iphone 6s or iphone 7.
