Both new iPhones also get the usual processor updates: The new A8 processor is around 25 percent faster than last year’s A7, and the new M8 motion coprocessor can tell the difference from running and biking with the iPhone. This opens up all sorts of new health tracking capabilities for developers.

Naturally, battery life on the iPhone 6 Plus is far beyond all the other devices. It can get up to 80 hours of music listening compared to the iPhone 5S’s 40 and the iPhone 6’s 50.
Talk battery life is 24 hours on the iPhone 6 Plus, while it’s only 14 hours on the iPhone 6 and 10 hours on the iPhone 5S.

Things are kicking off, but it looks like Apple’s livestream is having trouble. It goes to show, even Apple can’t get this stuff right all the time.

Some interesting stats from Flurry: Phablets now account for 9 percent of all smartphones out there, compared to 3 percent a year ago. No wonder Apple is reportedly eager to jump into phablet territory.

We’re 45 minutes away from the start of today’s event, I’m hearing there’s a lot of security mulling around. Also, the obligatory protesters have shown up.

VentureBeat reporters Dean Takahashi and Mark Sullivan are currently lining up for Apple’s event, along with editor-in-chief Dylan Tweney.
This is the first time Apple has allowed us to send three writers, and I’m hearing similar stories from other outlets. Sounds like Apple wants to make sure it has enough media on-site for a boatload of announcements.
