iPhone XS Release: 5 Things to Expect & 4 Not To

Expect at Least Two New iPhones in September

We expect at least two iPhones to launch in September with one release potentially coming later in the year. 

If you recall, Apple confirmed the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X during the same launch event on September 12th, 2017. And while the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus arrived on shelves a week later, the iPhone X didn't arrive until November.

History could repeat itself this year. Nothing is confirmed, but some analysts believe Apple's 6.1-inch LCD iPhone model could launch after the iPhone XS and iPhone X Plus. 

A research note from Morgan Stanley analyst Katy Huberty claims Apple might push the 6.1-inch LCD release into October due to "LED backlight leakage."

A more recent report from hit or miss blog Japanese blog Mac Otakara echoes Huberty's claim. The site says it hears the 6.1-inch iPhone's release date could be pushed deeper into the fall.

Ming-Chi Kuo also believes the 6.1-inch LCD model will be delayed, but he hasn't released a specific time frame for the device.
