Key Points:
- Apple is expected to hold its annual iPhone event on Wednesday, September 9, where the iPhone 18 Pro, the first foldable iPhone, and new Apple Watch models will be announced.
- Pre-orders for the iPhone 18 Pro and Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 may open on Saturday, September 12, a day later than Apple's usual Friday launch schedule.
- The delay is likely due to the September 11 anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, a date Apple has previously avoided for product launches.
- Pre-orders are also rumored to start at midnight PT on Saturday instead of the traditional 5 a.m. PT time.
- The foldable iPhone's pre-orders might open later in September, separate from the initial batch of devices announced on September 9.
