Apple Event 2023 – we’re live at Apple Park for the iPhone 15 launch

The biggest Apple event of the year has arrived: that’s right, it’s iPhone launch time!

Today, we expect Apple will announce the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. Smartwatch fans can expect to see the Apple Watch 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2, if rumors prove true. 

Our US Editor-in-Chief Lance Ulanoff is on the ground in Cupertino and will be feeding me his thoughts and analysis from the showcase, while I’ll be delivering all the announcements as they happen, with colorful commentary. So let’s get started.

Watch the iPhone 15 event live here

Apple will be streaming the Wonderlust event online from 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm BST today. So if you want to watch along with me, then hit play on the video below. But do keep an eye out for my blog posts too! 

Good morning, afternoon, and evening from Apple Park or wherever you are watching the Apple Event 2023 as it unfolds. I am Philip Berne, your US Mobiles editor, corresponding with Lance Ulanoff, our US Editor-in-Chief, who is on the scene live at Apple Park where he expects to see all the new Apple gear today. 

We are expecting the iPhone 15 family, of course, and quite a family it will be. The iPhone 15 Plus is expected to take a bow, and it maybe the final Plus model we see from Apple as it shakes up its lineup in the years to come. 

We are also expecting a more powerful iPhone 15 Pro, of course, as well as an even higher-level option, probably an iPhone 15 Pro Max, though the iPhone 15 Ultra name has been kicked around for quite a while. 

The iPhone won’t be the only star of the show. We’re also expecting a new Watch, maybe an update to the AirPods or their charging case, and plenty more surprises. Keep checking back, we will be updating frequently as the news happens.
