While excitement has already caused a stir in the circles of top-tier smartphones, multiple reports have disclosed the dates for the launch of the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, and iPhone 17 Pro models, confirming that the new iPhone series will launch in September 2025 this year.
For those desperate to get to know the launch date of the latest iPhone series, it's noteworthy that the release timeline is tentative until finally confirmed by the iPhone maker.
Apart from these rumours, CNET noted that it's typically for Apple to hold its latest iPhone launch keynote on the first Tuesday following Labour Day. In light of this calculation, Labour Day, falling on September 1, is an indication that the company is expected to choose either September 3 or September 9 for iPhone 17 launch in 2025.
If the abovementioned claim has anything to go by, the most likely release dates are Friday, September 12, or Friday, September 19, respectively.
Some renowned tipsters have also claimed that September 3 is a less likely date due to the IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin, an event which directly attempts to snatch Apple's media attention.
With September 3 out of the game, September 9 remains as the most probable date observing the launch of the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, and iPhone 17 Pro.
In the backdrop of the full picture we've drawn above, pre-orders for the iPhone 17 series are speculated to begin on September 12, with the official date tentatively being September 19.
