Apple is holding an event on September 7 and the company is finally expected to announce its next generation of iPhones. The event will be streamed live and besides the phones, the compnay may also unveil new features for iOS 10 or even a new Apple Watch. The event is scheduled to start at 10:00 am PDT, which translates to 10:30 pm on September 7 here in India. To watch the event, users can click here. However, since the stream uses the company's HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) technology, not everyone will be able to view the event. Users will have to use an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with Safari on iOS 7.0 or later. Mac users will need to have Safari 6.0.5 or later and should be running OS X v10.8.5. Those on a PC running Windows 10 will have to use the Microsoft Edge browser to watch the event. Further, those with an Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation) need to have software 6.2 or later, while those 4th generation Apple TV should be able to view the evnt without any problems. 

The new Apple iPhone 7 and the 7 Plus are not expected to feature a radical redesign as the company might hold back till next year, as it will be the tenth anniversary of the iPhone. Leaks and renders suggest that the new phone will feature a redesigned antenna and the Plus variant might feature a dual-rear camera setup. Apple is also tipped to ditch the headphone jack and only offer audio via the Lightning Port. Further, the company’s CEO, Tim Cook has said that the new iPhones will offer features that “you just don’t even know you need today.” So tune in to the event to know what Apple has in store for us.
