iPhone 9 Release Date: When is Apple’s next iPhone out?

We all benefit from the fact that Apple has a long and consistent history of iPhone releases. That makes it very easy to predict the next iPhone launch dates.
First off, here’s a rundown of recent iPhone announcements and release dates:
  • iPhone 8 – Announced: Tuesday, September 12 | Released: Friday, September 22
  • iPhone 7 – Announced: Wednesday, September 7 | Released: Friday, September 16
  • iPhone 6S – Announced: Wednesday, September 9 | Released: Friday, September 25
  • iPhone 6 – Announced: Tuesday, September 9 | Released: Friday, September 19
  • iPhone 5S – Announced: Tuesday, September 10 | Released: Friday, September 20
  • iPhone 5 – Announced: Wednesday, September 12 | Released: Friday, September 21
So what does this tell us? Firstly, Apple tends to make its annual iPhone announcement early in September, and always on a Tuesday or Wednesday.

As you’re probably aware, there’s no guarantee that the next iPhone will be called iPhone 9. In fact, there’s a good chance it won’t be. 
The main problem is that Apple also used 2017 to announce the iPhone X. The issue is that the X stands for the number 10 – it’s a Roman numeral. That means trying to flog an iPhone 9 could be seen by consumers as a step backwards, which is something Apple may be keen to avoid.

Alternatively, the device could be called iPhone 8S. Apple has previously used the ‘S’ suffix to denote incremental updates to existing iPhone models, and that’s something 2018 could certainly offer.
We could all see the device named as some variation on the iPhone X. Perhaps we’ll get an iPhone X2, iPhone XS, or iPhone XI.
What we think is most likely is Apple simply ditching numbers altogether, like we saw with the iPad 2 – which was simply dubbed ‘the new iPad’. Scrapping numbers and instead denoting new iPhone models by the release year would be an easy way to tidy up iPhone branding, and possibly reduce consumer confusion in the process.
So, here’s a re-cap of possible new iPhone names:
  • iPhone 9
  • iPhone 8S
  • iPhone XS
  • New iPhone
  • iPhone 2018
  • iPhone X2
  • iPhone XI

review Moto G5

What is the Moto G5? The Moto G5 is, like every model in this series, a great budget Android phone. It’s the near-perfect solution for people who want a phone they can buy outright or on a cheap contract. It also makes the least impact of just about any Moto G to date, though, so if you find a Moto G4 at a bargain price you should consider that too. There’s little progress here, and a few minor downgrades. Don’t feel the need to hesitate if you just want a good phone you can pick up on the high street and can’t find the Moto G4 anymore, though. This is our review of the 2017 Moto G5, for the Moto G4 review skip to the final page.

review S8

       review These are surely the best Black Friday dealsl and Cyber Monday deals we’ve seen. A Samsung Galaxy S8 for just £502 SIM-free? Yes, really! Alternatively, bag a great value Galaxy S8 contract on this amazing new phone from just £27 per month on a range of offers. Amazon (through a third-party seller) currently has the Samsung Galaxy S8 available for an incredible £502 – this is the best S8 off-contract price we’ve seen and EVEN beats the Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals of the last few days.

review s7

What is the Galaxy S7?  To use a tired cliche, Samsung has had a year of two halves. After the release of both the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge, things were looking strong. It had a phone that was better than the HTC 10, better than the Huawei P9 and it’s still better than the iPhone 7. But then the exploding Galaxy Note 7 landed and Samsung took a bit of a hit. Is it enough to make you think twice about buying a Samsung device? In a word, no. The Galaxy S7 is still the best phone we’ve reviewed this year. Maybe the Google Pixel phone will have something to say about that though? Related: Samsung Galaxy S8 Samsung Galaxy S7 – Design After the massive, and much needed, change in design direction Samsung took with the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge in 2015, all rumours pointed to things staying pretty much the same for the Galaxy S7. Well, it’s not like Apple, HTC or Sony make drastic changes to their industrial design every year. And that’s exactly the case here. Place the Galaxy S...
