Apple Invites Media to September 12 Event at Apple Park: 'Gather Round'

[JPack]

What if they have convinced the carriers to forgive those 2 to 3 months to those who have an iPhone X AND upgrade this year on launch day. They certainly can do this with their own program.

It's nice to dream, right?

 

[Wags]

Did anyone guess this date?

Weird on Wednesday. Then pre order less than 2 days ?

 

[bluespark]

Guys, this *obviously* is a reference to Apple's new campus design -- nothing more. I mean, look at the graphic!

iPhone notch at top and bottom so it looks "Gathered" in. Round Mac mini.

"Apple's low-cost iPhone, which could be priced around $700"

lol

 

[macintoshmac]

iPhone 0.

Maybe a round dial series 4.

Or, maybe a complete iOS ecosystem (all iOS devices) refresh, therefore the round.

Gather round sounds like something related to a hub. Interesting.

Oh, and something to do with the color of the invite to be incorporated in the devices.

Usually the events are on Tuesday, but pushed up to Wednesday when necessary to avoid holding it on 9/11.

To me the colors are definitely hinting at a gold with black front iPhone X.

Looks like the camera lens on the back of the phone

This round iMac gonna be cool.

I'd love to see what the invite-analysers will make of this

Round iPhones!

Let’s analyse this. What do you think of this event logo? Siri button? The top of Homepod? Top view of MacPro?

I am so excited I just jumped up and down at my desk at work. I think I will get fired. Thanks, Apple

You didn't expect a Keynote in september?

Apple's low-cost iPhone, which could be priced around $700...

Low cost? It is more like lower-cost, as they still sell these and once the new 2018 batch is released the prices below should be lowered even more:

iPhone 8 - 699$
iPhone 7 - 549$
iPhone 6S - 449$
iPhone SE - 349$

It will be interesting to see what happens do 6S and SE after the event.

 

[riverfreak]

New health ring for Apple Watch with glucose monitoring.

 

[powaking]

Or it could mean an update all around (mac mini, iMac, home pod, watch, AirPods, phones, MacBook and last but not least accessories).

I would think the 6S will be discontinued while the SE will stay for the low budget/small device.

 

[where is it]

Gather round, probably a reference to a new Apple TV + content...

Apple Park.

My Grandpa told me Apple once made "Desktop" computers like the one my teacher uses at school.

 

[radiology]

The “round” is for ZERO.
Zero innovation.

Your grandpa stays up to date. The iMac Pro is a very powerful desktop computer.

Have not they built a factory in India to specifically build 6S or something? From a technical point makes total sense, though, as 7 is way better with the same screen size.

 

[lakerchick4life]

I hope they announce the new iPad Pro..will buy it the second the pre order becomes available

 

[enc0re]

While my guess (and hope) is for a round version Apple Watch, the HomePod is also round. They might round out the lineup by introducing a HomePod Mini.

Gold plated camera lens for improved animojis quality!
