In less than two weeks, Apple is expected to unveil its new iPhone 16 lineup at its September 9 Glow Time event The event was previously reported to be held on September 10

However, the move from Tuesday to Monday also means that the date when one can pre-order one of the iPhone 16 models may be moved up a day

According to a rumor from a German blog called Macerkopf, pre-orders will begin on Thursday, September 12, instead of Friday, September 13-perhaps Apple is superstitious The blog also claims that the iPhone 16 will officially go on sale the following week, on September 19

The blog does not explain where they received this information or why Apple might shift around their schedule One needs to be a bit skeptical of this news

Nevertheless, Apple will hold the event on Monday instead of the usual Tuesday Apple's big developer conference, WWDC, was held on a Monday this year, and the Let Loose event, which announced the new iPad Pro with M4, was held on a Tuesday in May

In other words, it is reasonable to assume that the pre-order and actual release dates will be moved up a day or so this year If there is a correlation between the Glowtime dates, you could get the iPhone 16 Pro or iPhone 16 Pro Max a little earlier, and you could also get the new Apple Watch 10

Tom's Guide will be at the Glowtime event to bring you the latest Apple news, and on September 9 we'll have all the next generation of Apple mobile devices
