Reports claim that the iPhone 8 will be launched on September 12 and will go on sale starting September 22. Usually, Apple launch event takes place at around this time only. However, this contradicts the earlier reports which suggested that the iPhone 8 launch could be delayed due to the new technology that Apple is planning to bring for the upcoming smartphone.
