Apple has confirmed it will be holding its annual September event as usual, with the September 14 "California Streaming" event expect to feature the launch of the "iPhone 13," among other products.
As Apple has traditionally done each year, the company will be holding a fall event in September. In an announcement on Tuesday, Apple revealed that the event will take place on September 14 at 10 a.m. Pacific.
The event is probably the first of multiple in the last few months of 2021, following Apple's decision to launch multiple products in three events across three months in 2020. Rumors have suggested there will be at least two Apple Events this fall, possibly with both occurring within September. More likely is an October or November follow-on event, however.
What to expect at the event
While Apple is anticipated to
launch many products and updates during its fall event, the biggest draw is almost certainly going to be the iPhone 13."
Traditionally shown during the fall, Apple's 2021 iteration is anticipated to consist of four devices, including the "iPhone 13 mini," "iPhone 13 Pro," and "iPhone 13 Pro Max." Though Apple is rumored to be keeping the
same general styling as the previous model, various specification bumps have been touted.
A ninth-generation
iPad is also on the cards, which may have better specifications, though not necessarily a full design overhaul. The
iPad mini 6 may get a redesign, using a larger screen with slimmer bezels and a removed
Home button, while also retaining
Touch ID on the power button.
Updated
AirPods are also anticipated, including an
AirPods Pro style
design but without active noise cancellation functionality.
