What's going to be new? Apple doesn't give release dates or details about upcoming products before they're officially announced. The company usually reveals new features as well as when you can a new product at one of its annual launch events. But based on previous years, you can predict pretty closely when you can buy the latest iPhone model. And based on analysts and reports, we have an idea what Apple could be launching this fall. Here's everything you need to know about the 2018 iPhone lineup:  1. You will almost certainly be able to buy it this September. Since 2012, Apple has unveiled its latest iPhone in September. Typically, the new iPhone is available to preorder a few days after Apple's announcement.  Here's the recent history: 2012: iPhone 5 was announced on Wednesday, September 12, and started shipping on Friday, September 21. 2013: iPhone 5S was announced on Wednesday, September 10, and started shipping on Friday, September 20. 2014: iPhone 6 was announced on Tuesday, September 9, and started shipping on Friday, September 19. 2015: iPhone 6S was announced on Wednesday, September 9, and started shipping on Friday, September 25. 2016: iPhone 7 was announced on Wednesday, September 7, and started shipping on September 16.  2017: iPhone 8 and iPhone X were announced together on Tuesday, September 12. The iPhone 8 started shipping on September 22. In a change from previous years, iPhone X started shipping on November 3, almost two months after the announcement. 2. Reliable analysts and journalists have predicted Apple will release three new iPhones. The short answer to what to expect from the new iPhones is more Face ID, Apple's facial recognition software that replaced the fingerprint sensor on the iPhone X. Signs are pointing to it becoming a default feature on this year's models.  Apple watchers are expecting three new iPhones this year: One that looks like the iPhone X but with updated components, a super-sized version of the iPhone X, and a less expensive iPhone with an edge-to-edge LCD screen and facial recognition that costs between $649 and $749. 3. The two higher-end iPhones could be pricey. This year's iPhone X started at $999. A "plus" version could be even more expensive.
