They are all available for pre-order now, with the majority being shipped from this Friday, 22 September.
However, the company didn’t really mention the software much at the time – just sprinkling a few feature details here and there when discussing the devices themselves.

However, macOS Sonoma will follow a week later and will be available from 26 September 2023.
Apple iOS 17 features
Apple’s iOS 17 is one of the most eagerly anticipated software releases in years. It promises a smorgasbord of new features and design tweaks that should improve every compatible iPhone.
