A quick look back at Apple’s release history
Looking back, Apple has always stuck to a pretty strict September release schedule. This year is expected to be no different, though things could shift in the future. Rumors suggest that starting next year, Apple might split its lineup and only debut the Pro and Air models in the fall, leaving the standard and budget versions for a spring release.
For now, though, the September pattern seems intact, and the iPhone 17 series should stick to it.

What else is coming on September 9?
The Apple Watch SE might also get its third generation. Don’t expect major changes, but a bigger display could be on the way, along with the possibility of a new plastic version.On top of that, the AirPods Pro 3 could take the stage. Its design may stay mostly the same, but leaks suggest Apple might add new health-focused features, like body temperature tracking and heart rate monitoring. And if those make the cut, it would be a pretty major step forward for Apple’s earbuds.
So, if all these rumors hold up, September 9 is shaping up to be full of announcements. New iPhones, new Watches, new AirPods – Apple fans are in for a busy fall, so stay tuned for more news and updates!
