Apple enthusiasts, get ready for the iPhone 16! A newly leaked poster has revealed that Apple's highly anticipated next-generation smartphone is set to make its debut on September 10th. The event is expected to take place at the iconic Steve Jobs Theater in Apple Park, California.

The leaked poster, shared by renowned tipster Majin Bu on X (formerly Twitter), features the tagline "Ready. Set. Capture." This suggests that photography and videography will be a major focus of the iPhone 16 series. The invitation also confirms that the event will be an in-person affair, allowing fans to witness the unveiling firsthand. The logo color also suggests the new introduction of the "Desert Titanium" color for the iPhone 16 Pro Max.

This September 10th launch date aligns with previous rumors and analyst predictions. Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman had previously hinted at a similar timeline, suggesting that Apple might follow the same launch strategy as last year. However, Gurman also cautioned that some of the anticipated AI-powered features might not be ready in time for the initial launch and could be introduced later in the year.
