According to the famous leaker “Jon Prosser”, Apple is planning to publish a press release on Tuesday, September 8 at 9:00 EST about the new iPad, Apple Watch Series 6, and the iPhone 12.

Jon Prosser also mentioned that the announcement by Apple isn’t locked in until the press has been briefed on that day.

Apple press release is currently scheduled for Tuesday (September 8) at 9:00am EST — though, I should note that it’s not locked in until the press has been briefed, day of.

I’ll tweet early that morning to update you if it changes.

At this time, it’s unclear which iPad models are expected to be announced in the press release.

According to Mark Gurman, a journalist at Bloomberg News believes that the Tuesday announcement might only be just about the upcoming iPhone events and not on any new products by Apple.

I wouldn’t get too excited about rumors of new Apple products appearing this week. More likely I think: an announcement of the upcoming (of course virtual) September iPhone/Apple Watch event.
