Apple has sent out invites for its much-anticipated event on September 12. The tech giant is expected to announce its new iPhone 8 smartphone at the event along with a bunch of other devices.
When and Where?
According to the invite (below), which was sent out to the media, the Apple event is being organised at their new Apple Park campus in Cupertino on September 12. This will be the first event at the spectacular new campus which is not yet fully functional.
The September 12 event is being organised at the Steve Jobs Theater, which in all probability is now complete. Previous high-profile launches have always been held at either the Moscone or Bill Graham centre in San Francisco.
Rumours and more Rumors
With the launch date of the next iPhone drawing closer, the rumor-mill has been spinning at full throttle. Some reports say a new iPhone will include a high-quality, edge-to-edge screen with a notch in the top for an extra camera supporting 3D facial recognition. Some speculate that the new handset will have a glass backing that offers wireless charging.
As per many reports, the iPhone 8 will drop the home button in favour of gestures on what will be best screens Apple has ever produced. The phone is also expected to be the most expensive ever at around $1000. But then it is better to wait for the event before taking any of these reports seriously.
