Apple’s set to unveil the new iPhone 14 on Sept. 7, and possibly new Apple Watches, too. it usually drops the price of older models, so you should wait.
I was in the mall two nights ago shopping for back-to-work clothes and passed an Apple Store. It looked like lots of people were shopping for new iPhones. Part of me wanted to walk in and whisper to each of them: “Don’t buy one right now!”
But I didn’t. I kept walking and decided to write this instead.
It’s a bad idea to plop down money for a new iPhone or Apple Watch right now. Apple announced on Wednesday that it’s hosting a fall event on Sept. 7 that’s almost certainly for the iPhone 14. It may also announce new Apple Watches, though Apple sometimes separates the events. Bloomberg said the new iPhones could ship as soon as Sept. 16, just a few weeks from now.
Sure, maybe you don’t even care about getting the latest and greatest.
