iPhone 17 could arrive as early as September 8th — what we know
Gurman observes in his subscriber Q&A that Apple always launches its new iPhones after Labor Day (the first Monday in September for those of us outside the U.S.). Typically, it's the week after, meaning the iPhone 17 series should appear between September 8th and September 12th.
But we can narrow that down further. As Gurman writes: "Apple has typically favored Tuesdays, but there have been some exceptions in recent years. So it could be that Monday (the 8th), though I suspect the 9th or 10th is probably more likely."
The only time in recent memory that Apple broke this pattern was in 2020, when it delayed the launch of its iPhones to October following the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Looking ahead to 2026, Gurman says there are plenty of Apple devices to look forward to. Following the main iPhone 17 series' launch, the iPhone 17e should launch around a year after the iPhone 16e did. We shouldn't expect any major changes outside of a new chipset, Gurman explains.
Beyond iPhones, we will also see Apple launch MacBook Pros with new M5 chips, a refreshed basic iPad, iPad Air models with an M4 chip and a new Apple-built display to plug your devices into.
An Apple smart hub should also be coming at some point in 2026 too, along with the smarter Siri that Apple has been promising for some time.

But that's all further away. Right now you can mark the second week in September as the time we'll meet the iPhone 17 officially. Accompanied by the iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max and the new iPhone 17 Air model, Apple will no doubt have plenty to talk about on stage. But you could also check out our linked rumor hubs to learn about all the tipped features that have already been circulating.

'Superman,' 'F1' both cross $500 million at the global box office
Warner Bros. Discovery had a bountiful weekend at the global box office. The studio had two films cross the $500 million mark worldwide — "Superman" soared to $502 million and Apple's "F1," which Warner Bros. distributed, topped $509 million in ticket sales. The benchmark is a boon for Warner Bros.' DC Studios, as "Superman" is the first theatrical debut of James Gunn and Peter Safran since they became co-heads of the film and TV unit in late 2022. The pair has developed a 10-year plan to reinvigorate the studio's franchises across TV and film, including fresh spins on Superman and Batman. At present, 2025's "Superman" is the fourth-highest-grossing film featuring Superman. Zack Snyder's 2016 "Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice" is the highest with $874 million in global ticket sales, while 2013's "Man of Steel" is second-highest with $669 million and 2017's "Justice League" with $661 million, according to data from Comscore. "Superman" debuted in theaters just two weeks ago and continues to drive weekend moviegoing as well as weekday trips. As for Apple's "F1," passing the $500 million mark is just another feather in the cap for the studio. Earlier this month, the film became Apple's best film release ever, surpassing Ridley Scott's "Napoleon," which generated $221 million during its 2023 run, to become Apple's then-highest-grossing theatrical release. The tech company has only sent a handful of films to cinemas with wide releases since delving into the media business in recent years. "Killers of the Flower Moon" tallied $158 million worldwide, "Fly Me to the Moon" took in just $42 million and "Argylle" generated $96 million in ticket sales globally. "F1" has benefited greatly from its partnership with IMAX. Before production, Apple and the film's top creatives reached out to not only secure the use of IMAX's camera technology but also a three-week release in its theaters.
