UPDATE 8/5/2023: Sources close to the matter predict September 13 as the next potential Apple Event. According to the rumor mill, Apple has asked its staff to postpone any holiday or vacation time, lending credence to speculation that a product launch event is being planned. As always with Apple’s secretive launch events, details remain scarce. But if the leaks are accurate, Apple fans can likely expect exciting new product announcements next month.

The iPhone 14 has been out for a while now, but Apple is already moving forward with plans for the iPhone 15. We’re hearing a few rumors about the iPhone 15, like the expected move to USB-C and new display changes across all models.

Additionally, there might be upgrades in wireless charging and camera features like a periscope-style telephoto lens. Pro models may even feature a titanium frame for added durability.

We have yet to see anything confirming a release date for the iPhone 15. But Apple tends to follow a pattern regarding new iPhone releases every year.

So when should you expect the iPhone 15’s release date?
