Apple typically unveils new iPhone models in early September followed by a worldwide release on a Friday about 10 days later. Apple adheres to this pattern to the best of its ability and, in turn, it’s been quite easy to accurately predict iPhone launch schedules over the past few years.
The iPhone 12 release, however, has Apple swimming in unchartered waters. For starters, there are reports that travel restrictions associated with the coronavirus impacted the iPhone 12 development process as it precluded Apple engineers from traveling to China and inspecting prototypes. Additionally, the economic impact of the coronavirus has been so drastic that it may compel Apple to slightly push back the iPhone 12 release until the economy picks back up.
