Apple unveil new iPhone 11 Pro with three rear-facing cameras

Apple hosted its biggest event of the year, showing off its biggest products and updates.

Alongside a whole host of new products – from the new iPhones to updated Apple Watches – and a variety of different services, Apple finally revealed iOS 13 once and for all.

The company revealed the release date for the new iPhone operating system, as well as showing off any new features that were hidden when it was first revealed over summer and have been stored up for the launch of the new iPhone. iOS 13 has been mired in mystery, with the tech giant cutting off features as it rushed to make it available to the public.

So what's the battery life like with all this new technology?

One hour better than the iPhone XR apparently.

Guess what's happening now?

Congratulations to anyone who guessed "yet another video".

It's not entirely clear what this one is demonstrating. There's a baby and a candle and someone who dropped their iPhone down a sofa...

Aha, the tagline at the end is "All-day battery life".

The iPhone 11 will start at $699.

Tim Cook is back on stage. He's going to tell us about another iPhone.

And even better iPhone.

It's the iPhone 11 Pro.

Here's those famous coconut/ bowling ball/ button camera lenses.

It's the first iPhone that Apple has called Pro. 

It comes in some very professional colours.

The display also has a new name.

It's called the Super Retina XDR display.
