Apple\u2019s Worldwide Developer Conference fired the starting gun in the race to the next iPhone. The keynote that launched the conference on Monday, June 8 set in motion a timetable which will culminate in the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max and the first folding iPhone going on sale. Here\u2019s all you need to know.<\/p>\n

Apple iOS 27 Release Date: When You Can Download The New iPhone Software \u2014 Starts Now<\/span><\/p>\n

iOS 27 Developer Beta Now Live<\/h2>\n

On the day of the keynote, Apple\u2019s next software cycle, iOS 27, launched, with the first beta released to developers. This exactly matches the iOS schedule from last year, which means the iPhone release schedule is bang on target, for now at least, to mimic last year\u2019s routine.<\/p>\n

Apple also confirmed that the first public beta will go live in July, again syncing with last year\u2019s schedule with iOS 26. This means the next date in the timetable may be deduced, and that\u2019s the timing of the next special event.<\/p>\n

Special Event Keynote: Likely Wednesday, Sept. 9<\/h2>\n

Last year, the keynote which revealed the iPhone 17 series was on Tuesday, Sept. 9. That week seems the most likely this year, but Monday, Sept. 7 is Labor Day, and Apple rarely holds a keynote on the day after a holiday. After all, it needs to fly press and special guests to Cupertino.<\/p>\n

Which means that the most auspicious date this year would be the Wednesday, Sept. 9.<\/p>\n

Pre-Orders Open: Likely Friday, Sept. 11<\/h2>\n

If Sept. 9 is right, then the next event leading to the phones going on sale is almost certainly Friday, Sept. 11.<\/p>\n

First Reviews: Sept. 15 or Sept. 16<\/h2>\n

Apple will send early review units out on or around the day of the keynote and reviews usually appear a week later, which would mean Wednesday, Sept. 16, though it\u2019s also possible it could be the day before, Tuesday, Sept. 15. Exact timing varies but will probably be 6 a.m. Pacific.<\/p>\n

Release Date: Likely Friday, Sept. 18.<\/h2>\n

If the keynote is held on or around Sept. 9, then Apple will doubtless fit with its cast-iron…<\/p>\n
