Apple Store Closed Ahead Of IPhone 17 Launch "Awe Dropping"

JAKARTA - As expected, Apple has closed all Apple Store online stores ahead of the launch of the iPhone 17. Although all Apple devices and accessories can still be seen on the Apple Store site, each "Buy" button now leads to the detention page with the message, "I'll be back soon."

"We are updating the Apple Store," the message continued. "Please check again later."

This online store will not reopen until the "Awe Dropping" event ends. It is not yet known how long the iPhone 17 launch event will take place, but the event is scheduled to start at 10 am Pacific time.

Apple has not officially stated that the "Awe Dropping" event will be a launch event for the iPhone 17 lineup, but this is almost certain. It is estimated that Apple will introduce a thinner model with the name iPhone 17 Air.

In addition, the iPhone 17 Pro Max will reportedly have a slightly thicker body to accommodate a larger battery. The latest rumors say the battery in the model can last up to four hours longer per full charge.

Although the main focus of the show is on the iPhone 17, Apple is also expected to announce updates to Apple Watch, including three new models: Apple Watch Series 11, Apple Watch SE, and Apple Watch Ultra 3.
