Apple iPad Pro Set to Arrive Alongside iPhone 6S on Sept 9th
Time for Apple loyalists to hold tight as details of one of the most anticipated events of the tech world are divulged. 9th September marks the day the new iPhone will be launched in markets all over the world. The San Francisco venue, the Bill Graham auditorium (shown below) a 7000-seat building, therefore becomes symbolic of the significance this event will have in the history of the company.

The event will mark not only the launch of a pair of new iPhones but also of an upgraded Apple TV set top box, and new bands for the Apple Watch. The launch of these gadgets will be followed by the much awaited iPad Pro, and a revamped version of the iPad mini for retail in the subsequent months, if rumours are to be believed.
Meanwhile, Apple is expected to showcase the two new iPads at the event next week. The iPad mini 4 will be a thinner version of the current iPad mini, including a faster A-series chip with support for split-screen apps first introduced in iOS 9. A pair of upgraded cameras is another likely addition. Codenamed J98/J99, iPad Pro will be the larger-sized tablet and will have iOS 9.1, support a Force Touch-based stylus, and include speakers on two sides for better sound quality. The new iOS 9.1 operating system is expected to provide the iPad Pro with new features that include optimised versions of the Siri and Notification Center interfaces.
The event is expected to surpass last year’s launch of the iPhone 6, Apple Watch and Apple Pay keynote at the Flint Centre in Cupertino, with an “unprecedented” range of product introductions. All eyes are now set on Apple to deliver a range of products as impressive as tech freaks across the globe expect them to be.
