New 5G iPhone expected at Apple online event Sept 15
Apple on Tuesday fired off invitations to a September 15 online event expected to introduce a new-generation iPhone tailored for superfast 5G telecom networks.

Copies of the emailed invitation spread quickly on social media, featuring a video-snippet version of the Apple logo in blue that unraveled into the event date.
The invitation was also posted at the Apple website, where the event will be streamed.
