Apple to Debut New iPhones, iPads, and Apple TV on September 9
- Thread starter MacRumors

- Sort by reaction score
Plus, I can't see iOS 9 beta 5 being the final beta and that would mean the event would have to be 1 month after the next beta.
Looking forward to it but this is going to cost me. I have a few phones to buy since I agreed to update the kids phones too.
iPhone's yes, Apple TV maybe, but iPad's i don't think so. I don't think that Apple would announce a new iPad Pro at the same event as the new iPhone's simply because they wouldn't want them to overshadow each other, that's why they have separate events for both iPhone's and iPad's.
good! that gives me a chance to pay out for each out of a different pay cheque
I think their prediction is a week early as well. My wager is that the event will be on Tuesday the 15th.
iPhone 4s had different antenna band configuration compared to the iPhone 4 GSM.
Ditto, my 2nd Gen AppleTV crashes all the time. My 3rd Gen still runs great, so I'm at least buying 1, maybe 2
"will feature a Force Touch display, an A9 processor, an improved camera system, and a faster LTE chip"
- This is not a compelling reason to upgrade from iPhone 6
Apple TV:
- If Apple Watch (lack of useful apps) is of any indication, it is probably best to wait and see how the Apple TV App Store evolves before upgrading
iPad:
- iPad Air 2 is finally "feel nice" holding. iPad Pro would need to be a lot thinner to be held comfortably, or it needs to be like a surface with a stand of some sort and used a little differently than the current iPads.
- If you've got an iPad Air/Air 2/Mini 2/Mini 3, there is probably not a reason to even consider upgrading.

I really like the video ... you guys should do this more often.
Ditto.
National day in North Korea. Will it be released there as well?
Half an hour later...

Bets are on, who thinks Apple TV will get basic gaming capabilities.... any takers?
its also the 9th iPhone release.... i'll wait here while you put your mind back together.
Last year they did it the week after Labor Day, but Labor Day was the 1st week of September last year...this week it's the second.
Hope it competes against gaming consoles as well as giving us free basic channels streaming (bye bye cables)
Hopefully the new Apple TV will have some local storage option. For some reason on Fridays my internet likes to slow down so it would be nice to watch some of my movies without it buffering.
I think the new Apple TV will have some gaming capabilities but it will probably just be a bunch of casual games.

Obviously this is coming from Apple PR - the question is why pre-announced a whole month in advance. Existing sales will certainly suffer. Maybe their thinking is to freeze the market for anyone looking to upgrade, I am wondering.
The hell with the iPhones and iPads, the new Apple TV is finally coming!!
yes and half hour before anyone elseNational day in North Korea. Will it be released there as well?
