The Apple Store seems to be facing a fair bit of problems today, September 12, ahead of the iPhone 15 launch, with many in the community complaining about being unable to log in or the store kicking them out after logging in. This issue is likely happening because of the upcoming “Wonderlust” event tonight, where the developers will share official details and reveal their next flagship smartphone.
The servers are expected to face a significant load or go down in some cases due to the event, and this is likely going to last till the showcase ends.
The showcase will start at 10 AM PT and is expected to run for close to two hours. Hence, the Apple Store issues might just last until that point, and users may see fewer problems after 12 PM PT.
It's also possible that Apple stabilizes its store servers before being done with scheduled maintenance.
Things to look forward to in Apple’s “Wonderlust” iPhone 15 event
The “Wonderlust” is one of the most anticipated events this year, and iOS fans are eagerly waiting for official news and the upcoming iPhone 15's reveal. As for what to expect from the event, recent rumors and leaks have sketched a rough idea of some of the things that fans will be able to look forward to in tonight’s event.
Here is a list of some of the highly-anticipated reveals:
- 6.1-inch iPhone 15
- 6.7-inch iPhone 15 Plus
- 6.1-inch iPhone 15 Pro
- 6.7-inch iPhone 15 Pro Max
- 4.7-inch iPhone SE
- 6.1-inch iPhone 13.
Apart from this, it’s also likely that Apple will announce that it is going to discontinue iPhone 12 and 13 mini production of the iPhone 12 and 13 mini.
This bit of speculation comes from recent reports indicating a shortage of 13 mini phones across all retail stores and buyers being given an average wait time of 2-3 weeks, with some models even looking to take up to 6-8 weeks to arrive.
The claims are backed by the fact that while the mini models were entry-level devices, the iPhone 13 mini constituted just 3% of all iPhone sales in the US during the first quarter of 2022.
