When will the next iPhone 16 be available? This is all that we currently know.

The time has arrived once more, as Apple is poised to unveil its newest iPhone 16 models during its upcoming event scheduled for Monday, September 9. If you are considering upgrading your device next week, it is advisable not to rush to the Apple Store immediately following the event, as the new iPhones will not be available for purchase at that time.

Apple has established a reliable pattern for launching its products, and we do not anticipate any deviations from this trend this year. We will provide updates regarding the expected release date of the iPhone 16 following the event, as well as information on when you can download iOS 18, the latest software for your current iPhone.

If you wish to stay informed during Apple’s significant event, we will share details on how to view the iPhone 16 announcement.

When will the new iPhone 16 be available for purchase?

Although a definitive date for the availability of the iPhone 16 will not be announced until the event on Monday, we can make educated predictions based on Apple’s historical release patterns. Here is our anticipated timeline:

– Monday, September 9: Official Apple event (confirmed)
– Friday, September 13: Preorders commence
– Week of September 16: iOS 18 becomes available for download
– Friday, September 20: New iPhones and additional devices will be in retail stores

It is important to note that aside from the confirmed event date, these timelines are speculative and derived from Apple’s previous iPhone release practices. Typically, Apple initiates preorders on the Friday following the event. Therefore, if they adhere to this pattern, preorders for the iPhone 16 should begin on Friday, September 13. Similarly, if Apple maintains its historical schedule, the iPhone 16 will likely be available for purchase on Friday, September 20.

What about the anticipated new Apple Watch and AirPods products that are expected to be announced alongside the new iPhone 16 series? Generally, these products follow a similar timeline, although there have been instances of delays in the past. It is entirely feasible that one or more of these anticipated products may not be available in stores until later weeks, potentially extending into October.

When will the new iOS 18 be available for download?

If you do not intend to purchase the new iPhone 16, you still have the opportunity to upgrade your existing iPhone to resemble the latest models, provided that your device qualifies for iOS 18. Most models released in the last six years are eligible.

Although Apple has not disclosed the public release date for iOS 18, we can make educated guesses based on previous patterns. The latest software is expected to be accessible the week following the event, with the earliest possible date being Monday, September 16. However, it may not be available until later in the week.

We will provide updates regarding the official release dates for both new hardware and software following Apple’s announcement on Monday.
