Can you relax? YouTube developer Philip Corroy, the popular YouTube channel EverythingApplePro, reports that Apple plans to launch the iPhone 12 in September rather than postpone the annual announcement event, as technology giants in May have postponed the October launch due to the spread of the Corona virus.

The outbreak of the virus caused the closure of Apple's factories in China, and severely damaged the supply, ongoing production and delivery of the company's products. The main concern at Apple is that due to quarantine in many countries and the general avalanche around the world the demand for the device will be low. Alongside that, the tech giant's stores outside China have closed until a new announcement, which also results in a drastic drop in sales.

Every year since 2011 Apple has announced new iPhones in September or October. At the same time, the new devices make up more than half of Apple's revenue each year, and their timely launch is critical for the company.

AirPods 3?

Towards the end of the video, Corroi says that Apple is already working on AirPods 3 (AirPods) that will go into stores in the first quarter of 2021, which they say will be redesigned and identical to the AirPods Pro, with noise filtering support. Meanwhile, because this is an upgrade to the standard version, they may also be cheaper than the pro version.
