Apple Store goes down ahead of 'California Streaming' event

It's that time of the year, folks.

The Apple Store is down a couple of hours ahead of Apple's biggest event of the year. Dubbed "California Streaming," the event is likely to feature new iPhones, as well as AirPods and a redesigned Apple Watch.

Like most major tech events in the past one and a half years, Apple's event on Tuesday will be held online only due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The streaming starts at 10 a.m. PT/ 1 p.m. ET on Tuesday, and you can tune in on Apple.com or via Apple's YouTube page.

Here's an overview of what you can expect from today's Apple event. We should see four variants of the iPhone 13 with a slight redesign and updated cameras and displays; a flatter, slightly larger Apple Watch; and AirPods that look a bit like AirPods Pro and have a bigger battery.
