In a closed-door meeting on March 30, Apple executives have decided to unveil iPhone 9 series on April 15 and make it available for sale in the following week on April 22, Jon Prosser, a renowned tipster on Apple products said on Twitter.

Considering the rapid increase in COVID-19 positive cases and related deaths in the US, the announcement, will in all probability be a press note. Also, there is a slight chance of postponement of the iPhone 9 sale at least in America.
