We're hearing that Apple's begun production as of late June, with the first finished units expected in July.

This seems to be due to Apple's mass-production plans in India and China rather than an indication that we will see an iPhone earlier than usual, but we cannot rule it out for sure. Trial production reportedly began for the iPhone 15 lineup in January, a start date that's a month earlier than it has been in the past. One source claims it could be September 22/23 specifically we see the iPhone 15 go on sale.

Typically Apple announces its phones about ten days before they’re released, with pre-orders opening a week ahead of go-time.

That was the iPhone 12 series in October 2020, amid a once-in-a-generation pandemic that necessitated stay-at-home orders and disrupted tech supply chains.Īs such, it is highly likely that the iPhone 15 will arrive in September 2023. In the last decade, Apple has only announced its new flagship smartphones outside of September once.
