Nutshell:
As the world joneses for the next iPhone, prominent info leaker Evan Blass has said it will go on sale the week of September 12.
More:
Blass has a solid, if not impeccable track record, and the date fits with previous releases, keeping to a roughly annual cadence. If Apple sticks to its usual strategy, the iPhone 7 will go on sale on the Friday – and a few people will start queuing from the Tuesday outside flagship stores, though this has generally diminished in recent years.
Of course, there’s no solid info on what Apple will have in store, but with the nail-biting excitement of questions such as ‘Will it have a headphone jack?‘ there’s clearly a lot to look forward to.
