Apple Targets September 7 for iPhone 14 Launch in Flurry of New Devices

Apple is aiming to hold a launch event on Sept. 7 to unveil the iPhone 14 line, Bloomberg News reported Wednesday, citing people with knowledge of the matter, rolling out the latest version of a product that generates more than half its sales.

The new iPhones will kick off a busy fall product season, which will also include multiple new Macs, low-end and high-end iPads, and three Apple Watch models. Apple is updating its flagship product at a precarious time for the industry. Smartphone sales have begun to flag as consumers cope with inflation and a shaky economy. But Apple appears to be faring better than its peers: The iPhone sold well last quarter, and the company has signaled to suppliers that it doesn’t foresee a dropoff in demand.
