Apple rumored to launch 'iPhone 7' on week of Sept. 12
According to noted industry blogger Evan Blass, Apple is planning to announce its next-generation iPhone lineup at a special event scheduled for the week of Sept. 12, in line with its usual fall launch cycle.
Blass, whose sources have in the past provided accurate information on upcoming smartphone releases, posted the rumor to Twitter without attribution late Friday. Apple traditionally announces iPhone releases in September — iPhone 6s debuted last year on Sept. 9 — so the guess is a safe one.
The release estimate comes days after Blass identified the upcoming devices that will succeed current 4.7- and 5.5-inch iPhone 6s models as code names "Sonora" and "Dos Palos."
