iPhone 16 series on track for September launch

Apple is on track to launch the iPhone 16 family in September, which has been the traditional month for the event for many years now. We weren't necessarily expecting anything to change, but we now have a sort of confirmation of the timeline.

It comes from Ross Young of Display Supply Chain Consultants, who posted on X about the production start for the iPhone 16 lineup's display panels.

This is expected to commence in June, which is exactly when it did in previous years in order to make a September launch possible. Hence, it's happening in September this year as well.

The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro will get the lion's share of display panels out of those manufactured in June, with the iPhone 16 Plus and iPhone 16 Pro Max screen production expected to ramp up later in the summer.

The iPhone 16 Pro Max will be larger than its predecessor, as we revealed earlier today through some leaked dummy units.
