If you're ready to tune in and see what Apple has to offer, we'll be showing you in this piece how you can live-stream the event on various devices.

All iPhone 7 models are allegedly capable of shooting 4K video at a silky smooth 60 FPS

The iPhone 6s series brought the biggest camera jump so far, with the front shooter upgraded to a five-megapixel lens and the rear one going from eight to twelve megapixels with the ability to capture 4K video at thirty frames per second (FPS).

Sonny Dickson posts video showing a supposedly working iPhone 7 Plus

Australia-based Sonny Dickson used to be a prolific gadget leakster before he went on to work on other projects. Understandably, he still leaks out stuff from time to time. Last month, for example, Dickson posted claimed photographs showing a 4.7-inch iPhone 7 next to its 5.5-inch brethren.

And now, he's back with another leak in the form of a short video that appears to demonstrate a working iPhone 7 Plus in the wild.

Converting a regular video to slow motion with iMovie on Mac

Slow motion videos are one of the fun aspects of using your iPhone for videogprahy. You can record videos in 120 or 240 frames per second and then watch it play back in a much slower manner than it typically would.

On the other hand, if you don't use your iPhone to capture video, getting the video files from your other devices to transform into slow motion is a little trickier. Fortunately, iMovie for Mac can convert your videos into slow motion, and in this tutorial, we'll show you how.

Amalthea: a video-friendly volume HUD for your iOS Status Bar

One of the biggest problems with the stock volume HUD in iOS is how it floats in the center of the display and gets in the way of everything you're doing. The problem is amplified when you're trying to watch a video and you can't see what's going on.

Amalthea is a new jailbreak tweak that relocates the volume indicator to the location of the Status Bar so that it's up and out of the way.

At the moment, the company is currently testing two methods of getting users to watch video with sound: one involving autoplaying videos with sound and the other with an Unmute button on the lower right corner of such videos.
