iPhone 7 launch live streaming information: How to watch Apple special Sept. 7 event live on Mac, iPhones, Windows PC, Android phones and tablets

In about a few hours, Apple's annual product launch event will kick-off in the United States. If history is any guide, we expect the new iPhone 7 series to make its debut.

The event's key note speech is scheduled to start at 10 am PDT (10.30 pm IST) at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco.

Like last year, Apple has confirmed to webcast the entire programme online so that its fans can watch Apple CEO Tim Cook unveil new products under the cozy comforts of their homes. Only caveat is that the live streaming uses Apple's proprietary HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) technology and is compatible only with select Apple devices and latest Windows 10-powered PCs.
