iPhone 6 Release Date Will be the Same as the iPad 5 and iPad Mini 2
The iPhone 6 release date or unveiling will take place on the same day as the iPad 5th generation model and the iPad Mini 2.
The new iPhones are expected to be unveiled at a Sept. 10 media event and a new Bloomberg report states that the company will also use this event to introduce its new line of tablets.
The Sept. 10 unveiling event planned for the iPhone 5C and iPhone 5S or 6 was originally reported by AllThingsD earlier this month. Various other sources have also confirmed this date for when Apple will introduce its new products.
Bloomberg mentions in its recent report that the new iPads are expected to debut at the event; however, nothing has been confirmed by Apple at this time. This is also the rumored release date for iOS 7.
Apple will begin rolling out the new software on that date, according to an email sent by the company Nuance that specializes in powering Siri's speech recognition capabilities.
The email was sent out to developers using the company's API and in the body of it Nuance claims the General Availability date for iOS 7 will be on Sept. 10.
"As you are probably aware, iOS 7 GA will be released on September 10th," read the email. "The NDEV Program has pre-qualified that SpeechKit 1.4.5 works properly on iOS 7, but we encourage you to conduct your own testing to ensure that when the upgrade happens, your Nuance speech services continue to work seamlessly."
Apple normally releases iOS Golden Master versions to developers on the same day as the new iPhone announcement, which is scheduled for that same day. This gives developers a change to test their apps with the final version of the software before its release to the general public which normally takes place a few days later.
Apple first announced the iOS 7 release date for this fall at WWDC earlier this year.
