New iPad and Apple Watch Rumoured for September

The well-known Apple expert and product leaker Jon Prosser has again made a new forecast on Twitter, saying that Apple will be making an announcement on Tuesday 8 September and it will happen between 9 and 12pm EST.

The new information in the Tweet follows one made by Jon Prosser a few weeks back that said that Apple would be launching a new Apple Watch and new iPad at the start of September.

It's not clear from Prosser's tweet whether this is a launch event or if some new products will simply be added to Apple's online store. In the earlier tweet from Prosser he stated that a new Apple Watch and new iPad will be released via a press release. Apple has said already that a new iPhone release would be delayed this year, and so we aren't expecting Apple to hold an iPhone event until around October.

Jon Prosser made a name for himself over the last few years by correctly predicting Apple release dates and details about new products. In addition to the established Apple analyst Ming Chi Kuo, he is currently one of the most reliable informants for all news coming out of Cupertino.

If the Watch does arrive on 8 September it will be an unusual step for Apple - the Apple Watch is usually presented at the big autumn keynote alongside the new iPhone 12.
