Probably today, my guess

And two more weeks to the next round of iOS 27 updates.. I'm quite happy with beta 4 on all my gear, very well executed on Apple's part. Especially when comparing to all the soft-effort of iOS 26, as it appeared to me..
Would absolutely agree here. It makes a really good impression so far.

Interesting… I thought I had Apple keynote date down to a science… but there’s no way they do pre-orders on 9/11 or make iPhone release date 9/11…
I wonder, if they will do keynote.. aug 24/25.. pre-orders on August 28 and release date on sept 4..

Otherwise… keynote won’t be until sept 14th or so..
 
I would guess they need as much as time as possible to ensure they have stock of the foldable so Sept 14th keynote, 18th pre-orders and 25th launch date would be my guess.

This got me curious. The only precedent we have for this are the iPhone 6S and 12 Pro.

The 6S got a mid-week unveil and pre-order date, and the 12 Pro got pushed to October. Personally, I think they’ll host the iPhone 18 event on Sep 14, open pre-orders Sep 18, then release the phones Sep 25 this year.
