The new iPhone will arrive in just days.

And it will be joined by plenty of other things besides: the latest updates to the Apple Watch and iPad, new accessories and maybe even refreshed laptops might be arriving at the event.

Everything will kick off in just a couple of weeks. But here you can follow along with all the latest updates as news emerges – or catch-up on why there is such a mystery surrounding the latest version of the handset.

Here's the latest on the new iPhone – or, rather, why there aren't quite so many of these latest updates as we'd expect. The new iPhones remain mostly a mystery, and we've had a go at discussing why that might be.
