Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has assured that Apple will not delay the release of its new model, but he is not putting his hand in the fire either. The truth is that Apple has a perfect track record of launching new iPhone models in September, and not even the pandemic has delayed the keynote a regular event for the American firm where its new products are presented.
We cannot guarantee that the launch will take place in September, as has happened with previous models, until Apple officially confirms it, but it is fair to say that the iPhone 16 will not be an exception, despite the Apple Intelligence arrives late with iOS 18.1 in OctoberApple is unlikely to delay the launch of the iPhone 16 to include these new AI features out of the box, but the firm may think twice and eventually mimic Samsung’s launches and release the iPhone 16 later to show off Apple Intelligence.
However, if I did not do so, It would not be too different from what happened in 2016.when the iPhone 7 Plus was launched in September and received portrait mode via a subsequent software update.
Why Apple Intelligence is so important
Apple Intelligence was introduced alongside iOS 18 promising a number of innovative tools that will improve the user experience. One of the most notable features is the ability to change the tone of text messages and emails to make them more professional.
Another interesting feature is the ability to summarize emails and web pages, allowing users to save time by quickly getting a summary of the most important information. Additionally, call recording and transcription will allow users to record conversations and view a written transcript in the Notes app, making it easier to review the information discussed.
Although these Features coming with iOS 18.1 in Octobersome of the most significant updates to Siri and other AI tools are not expected to arrive until 2025.

This button will be designed not only for taking photos and videos, but also to offer the user additional functions such as swipe zoom and the ability to focus by lightly pressing the button.
He ‘Capture’ button It will be located below the power key on the right edge of the iPhone 16 and will complement the Action button It was officially launched on last year’s Pro models.
