Rumours: Apple Watch and iPad to launch in September, iPhone 12 in October
Leaker Jon Prosser has just shared information on what could be Apple's launch schedule this fall.
According to Jon, Apple will unveil the new Apple Watch and an unspecified iPad in September.
And with Apple already confirming that iPhone 12 will be delayed this year, Jon said that iPhone 12 could be unveiled on 13 October with pre-orders starting as soon 16 October for the entry-level models.
Jon also said that Apple will only start accepting pre-orders for the higher-end iPhone 12 Pro models in November.

According to reports, Jon has had a mixed record when it comes to predicting Apple's launch plans.
What's curious about his predictions this time is that Apple would announce the new Apple Watch separately from new iPhones. The two have been announced together for the past few years.
Regardless, the next few months looks like it could be a busy one for Apple.
