Apple Confirms Sept. 7 To Release iPhone 14

Apple Inc. has been keeping their card close to their chest on the release of the iPhone 14, until now. Thursday, August 25th Apple announced its plans to hold a launch event on Sept. 7th, a tech summit where Apple plans to unveil the iPhone 14 and a new line of Apple watches, another Apple fan favorite.

Following reports of the release, Apple sent out an invitation to media and key individuals for a presentation titled “Far Out,”. Here, Apple intends to hold the day-long presentation and summit at the Steve Jobs Theater, headquarters in Cupertino, California, and for those unable to attend in person, Apple will be holding a livestream, a presentation practice it’s used since the pandemic began.

As a premiere iPhone App Developer recognized as one of the top Seattle-based app development firms, we’re dedicated to staying on top of the latest trends in the app development space, making this a critically important story to follow.

What Does This Mean for iPhone Enthusiasts?

It’s always a momentous occasion when Apple releases a new iPhone. These events are typically filled with Awe and wonder around some of the new fascinating features the iPhone of the day holds. In fact, although Apple got its start developing the Mac computer line, iPhones now account for more than half of its $366 billion in annual sales last year. So, delivering on these events and delivering on cutting edge iPhone technology is a must.

And although, attendees and those watching virtually can expect the same excitement as yeast prior, there’s additional pressure on Apple this year to deliver some spectacular tech. As the global economy faces a slowdown in consume spending, Apple is proving to not be immune to market changes. Recently, Apple revealed that Apple has faced a slowdown in consumer spending — particularly in the smartphone industry — and needs its latest technology to entice buyers. 

What does this mean for Apple consumers? Well, for one Apple is planning a more ambitious product rollout than usual in the coming months, with a flurry of new Macs, iPads, AirPods and even a mixed-reality headset expected by the first half of 2023.This means that consumers will have their pick of products in the coming years. But, it’s also noteworthy to consider that some resellers of Apple products may be discounting Apple products that they want to move off their shelves to make way for the latest and greatest Apple tech.

What To Expect

At this particular event scheduled for Sept. 7, Apple aims to announce four new iPhone 14 models and three new versions of the Apple Watch, so don’t count on any iOS news for the foreseeable future. Early reports of the event also indicate that the new iPhone line will split into two standard versions and two Pro models, giving consumers variety in their new iPhone 14. Another great consideration for those eyeing the new iPhone 14, Apple will only offer a large, 6.7-inch version of the iPhone, moving away from the mini model we’ve seen with the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13. 

For those looking to step into the Pro model, they’re in for a lot of feature enhancements. The iPhone 14 Pro line will gain a new 48-megapixel rear camera, a faster processor, improved battery life, video recording enhancements and a redesigned front camera system.

For those looking to upgrade their Apple Watch, they’re in luck. The new Apple Watch lineup will represent the company’s biggest set of changes to the device since its initial release in 2015. In particular, the new line of Apple Watches will be outfitted with a faster processor. There also will be an Apple Watch Series 8 model with a body-temperature sensor and new features for women’s health.
