The company is expected to officially release names and details on Wednesday afternoon at its annual event in Cupertino, California. Apple has released new products every September since 2012 at this event. This means a new iPhone could be on the market by the end of this month.
This is the first year Apple will livestream the event on Twitter, according to TechCrunch. Here are other ways to watch it online.
Here's what the tech gurus have found out so far about these new iPhones:
• iPhone XS will be available in a gold color, and be the "S" version of the iPhone X
• iPhone XS Max will a "plus" version of the XS, so it will have a larger screen
• iPhone XR will be a cheaper option, using an LCD-screen instead of OLED
The website code also made mention of new Apple Watch sizes, too. It will be called Series 4 and feature watch bands in wider sizes and more colors.
