Apple is set to host its next big iPhone event on September 9 in San Francisco, CA. The entire event will be streamed live on PCs, Macs, Apple TVs, iPads and iPhones.
Media invites are being sent out in a new way this year, with the company making Siri a part of the game. The “Siri, give me a hint” campaign alludes to the upcoming September 9 event, and news of the iPhone 6 release is expected. Apple is likely to release the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s Plus this year.
A report from The Independent reveals that the iPhone 6s will likely carry a price tag that’s similar to the current iPhone.
In terms of technical specs, the iPhone 6s is expected to feature animated wallpapers, ForceTouch display, Qualcomm-built cellular chips and an A9 processor. Cameras for both versions of the phone will also be upgraded to 12MP. It’s also rumored that the camera will support 4K recording.
Rumors are also swirling that Apple will be releasing the iPhone 6c at the event, which is said to be a cheaper version of the phone.
In addition to new iPhones, Apple is also expected to launch a 12.9” iPad, known as the iPad Pro. Rumors have been circulating about the iPad Pro since 2013 when leaked images of the device were released. Reports in early 2015 stated that Apple will be delaying production of the iPad Pro until September because of issues with the display panel supply.
Apple will also be launching a new Apple TV at the September event. Reports from earlier this month hint at the company being in talks with CBS, ABC, Fox and NBC. New changes may also be seen internally and in the design of Apple TV. New changes, such as the App Store and voice control through Siri may be included as well as an improved touch pad.
