It's that time again, folks: Apple Day 2019. Let's see what we're gonna get.

Follow along with our livetweets here, and check out the liveblog for even more: bit.ly/2ZQepXv
The opening video is a reminder of Apple's more iconic devices, Mac, iMac, etc. #AppleEvent
Let's get right to it! First up: App Store #AppleDay
The App store will have an “Arcade” tab for engaging with all the subscription content #AppleEvent
Konami’s Benjamin Kinney is now on stage to show us the first of a few games.

It's Frogger in Toy Town. Which is Frogger, in a toy town. #AppleEvent
Capcom’s Peter Fabiano now up #AppleEvent
The game from Capcom, Shinsekai Into the Depths, is set underwater. You're the Earth's last survivor and you live in a deep diving suit and run from sea monsters.

It looks REALLY pretty with some lovely sound design. #AppleEvent
Now, Kelsey Hansen from Annapurna with a game called Sayonara Wild Hearts that's part rhythm and part racing. Lots of neon colors and electronica. #AppleEvent
Apple Arcade will be available 9/19 #AppleEvent
Apple Arcade is $4.99/month #AppleEvent
And now... on to Apple TV+ #AppleEvent
Did you know that Tim loves stories with purpose?

He loves them. #AppleEvent
Now we’re going to get the trailer for See, the new Jason Momoa show. #AppleEvent
Before now, we've only seen trailers for "For All Mankind," "Dickinson," and "The Morning Show."

(this social editor is personally most excited for "Dickinson"...) #AppleEvent
The Momoa show is about a world where nobody can see... but then babies are born who can see? And that's a big deal...?

There's a lot of confusing things here, but I guess we'll find out how it works when the show premieres. #AppleEvent
The first Apple TV+ shows, including Morning Show and See, will be available November 1. The service will be $5. #AppleDay
iPad time! #AppleEvent
Tim is talking about the big improvements to iPad OS, which was announced back at WWDC. #AppleEvent
We have a new 7th generation iPad, with keyboard and Pencil support. 10.2" retina display as well. #AppleEvent
If you needed a reminder about iPadOS #AppleEvent bit.ly/2Q4MCxR
This new iPad is clearly positioned as a budget option to cheap Windows and Chrome OS laptops. 2x faster than the most popular PC #AppleEvent
The new iPad comes with the Smart Connector so it can use keyboards better.

There's a floating keyboard, and you can load SD card contents onto the iPad, too. #AppleEvent
iPad tl;dr:

- Smart connector.
- A10.
- 10.2 inch retina display.
- Pencil support.

All for $329. Orders start today, and it'll ship at the end of the month. #AppleEvent
Now onto the Apple Watch, which isn't expected to have a huge update #AppleEvent
Ok who in the world is really emailing Tim Cook about the Apple Watch? #AppleEvent
Apple Watch: Inspiring, apparently. #AppleEvent
If you don't have an Apple Watch, you'll die! #AppleEvent
Okay, okay, let's talk about how Apple Watch is being used in health research #AppleWatch
Apple will be doing three new health studies:

- Hearing study, with WHO and University of Michigan
- Women's health study, with Harvard School of Public Health and NIH
- Heart and movement study, with American Heart Association and Brigham and Women's Hospital #AppleEvent
You can sign up to participate in these studies through the Apple Research App #AppleEvent
Now we're talking about the new generation of Apple Watch #AppleEvent
The Apple Watch Series 5 will have...a new watch face! And an always-on retina display. #AppleEvent
And a compass, lol #AppleEvent
Aluminum models will come in gold, silver and space grey.

Stainless steel models will also be available.

As will a new titanium model in grey or silver.

And a white ceramic model. #AppleEvent
The Series 5 GPS model will start at $399.

The cellular model will start at $499.

Pre-orders start today and it will be available in stores 9/20. #AppleEvent
The Series 3 also got a price drop and is now $199. #AppleEvent
iPhone tiiiiiime #AppleEvent
Triple camera, and BIG camera bump on the newest iPhone #AppleEvent
Yellow, green, lavender, and red options on the phone in addition to white and black #AppleEvent
Meet iPhone 11 #AppleEvent
6 new colors, "tough" glass on the front and back, a 6.1 inch liquid retina display #AppleEvent
Dual camera system, 12MP Wide Camera and 12MP ultra wide camera. #AppleEvent
Correction: This is the budget option, it's LCD
Portrait mode for pets! #AppleEvent
The night mode sample shown is on par with what we see from Google's night mode. #AppleEvent
This wide angle lens stuff looks really cool, both for photos and video. #AppleEvent
(also, honestly, the bump doesn't seem that bad) #AppleEvent
Tap and hold to switch from photo to video mode is finally here, because who ever really means to take a "burst" of photos? #AppleEvent
Get ready for "slofies" (slow motion selfies) #AppleEvent
The iPhone 11 will have the A13 Bionic CPU. #AppleEvent
Apple is claiming this will be the fastest CPU and GPU ever in a smartphone #AppleEvent
Yang Yang from Giant Network is here to show off a game on the iPhone 11 #AppleEvent
Backing up Apple's CPU and GPU claims... lines! #AppleEvent
What about Battery Life? It should last an hour longer than the XR #AppleEvent
More features: Faster Face ID. WiFi 6. Dust and water resistance. #AppleEvent
For context on those battery life numbers, in our testing we got 12 hours on the XR. So this would mean 13 #AppleEvent
The iPhone 11 will start at $699 #AppleEvent
iPhone 11 Pro. Three cameras. #AppleEvent
The rumors of a dark green iPhone are true! iPhone Pro #AppleEvent
It will be available in midnight green, space grey, silver, and gold #AppleEvent
Some features on the iPhone 11 Pro:

- The display is called the Super Retina XDR display.
- New oleophobic coating.
- Will support HDR including Dolby Vision and HDR10. #AppleEvent
They're just spouting through a ton of features now, but every other word seems to be PRO.

Look at all these chips #AppleEvent
There are a whole lot of cores, and Apple claims 20% faster than the A12 #AppleEvent
Phil says you should get 4 more hours of battery life versus the XS and 5 hours more than the XS Max. #AppleEvent
Let's talk about the PRO camera on the PRO #AppleEvent #Pro
The cameras:
- 12MP 26mm f/1.8.
- 12MP 52mm f/2.0
- 13mm f/2.4 #AppleEvent
You can take 3 shots from the same vantage point: telephoto, wide, and ultra wide. #AppleEvent
Lots of photography "mad science" being showcased now, including something called "deep fusion" which should be available with a software update this fall. #AppleEvent
It shoots four images before the shutter, one long exposure, and then a bunch of machine learning stuff happens, and then there’s an incredibly sharp picture after? #AppleEvent
We just saw a video that was shot AND edited on iPhone Pro. And it looks pretty good #AppleEvent
Filmic Pro is getting an update with lots of cool new cinematic features, including the ability to shoot with multiple cameras at the same time. That means you can get multiple takes from one shot. #AppleEvent
We had a lot of features thrown at us, so here's a graphic reminding you of at least some of them.

And as always, check out the liveblog for everything you may have missed here #AppleEvent bit.ly/2ZQepXv
The iPhone 11 Pro will start at $999.

iPhone 11 Pro Max will start at $1099. #AppleEvent
You can start preordering the iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max this Friday, and they'll ship on September 20 #AppleEvent
The iPhone XR is now $599, and the iPhone 8 is now $499. #AppleEvent
Now... APPLE RETAIL!!!!1!

(But are we getting a new MacBook or what?) #AppleEvent
Notably absent from the iPhone 11 announcements is the device-to-device wireless charging which was a big rumor. #AppleEvent
Just a note: the iPhone 8 is $449 as it is in the image, not $499 as was mistakenly reported in the tweet.
And for anyone that REALLY wants to go, the 5th Avenue store (in New York City) will reopen on 9/20, and Tim will be there. If you want to see him and the rainbow cube. #AppleEvent
20 minutes left...is there a One More Thing? #AppleEvent
Survey says: Nope!

That's all Tim has for us today. Now we're off to see some phones! #AppleEvent
Thanks for following along with us here!

We've been blogging all of the announcements, and @alexhcranz is off to the hands-on with the new products. #AppleEvent
