In related news, Apple may be planning something big next month for their loyal customers, as Geek Snack reports that both the iPhone 7 and the iPad Pro will be launched on Sept. 9.

It's worth noting that Apple launched the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus also on Sept. 9, although that took place last year.

Despite the many rumors suggesting the arrival of the new iPhone and iPad, Apple has yet to confirm that these new products will be launched soon.
