New iPhone looming as Apple announces new event

At 3am on Wednesday September 13 Sydney time, inside the Steve Jobs Theatre Apple CEO Tim Cook and his team will reveal their latest product lineup, which will undoubtedly include the iPhone 15.
iPhone 15 is rumoured to feature an all-new charging port, replacing the 11-year-old proprietary "Lighting" connector, after the European Union ruled all consumer electronics must feature USB-C connectors by late 2024.

Apple will also likely announce new iPads and even Mac Computers, along with a next generation Apple Watch and Apple Watch Ultra.
