As the rumours have suggested, it looks like the next-generation iPhones will be arriving late after all. Apple's Chief Financial Officer Luca Maestri confirmed during a customary post-earnings conference call that new iPhones would come later than usual. He said, "As you know, last year we started selling new iPhones in late September. This year, we project supply to be available a few weeks later." While the company doesn't release all new iPhones when it holds its launch in September, it will be the first time all iPhone models will miss this release window. It isn't even clear if the company will host a launch event for the phone in the same month, or wait until the new phones are ready. At this point, it's an unexpected outcome from an unexpected year.
