By Alex Osborn

Apple has announced it will hold a "special event" on September 12.

The keynote will take place at the Steve Jobs Theater, and will begin at 10:00am PT/1:00pm ET/6:00pm UK (September 13 at 3am AET).

According to prior reports, next month's event is expected to showcase Apple's 10th anniversary iPhone, as well as an updated line of iPhone 7 models. In addition to a higher price tag, the rumored special anniversary iPhone will allegedly boast a larger form factor, an edge-to-edge display and face-scanning technology.

A new model of the Apple Watch will reportedly be revealed as well. The device will reportedly have an LTE cellular chip, giving it more functionality when untethered from an iPhone.

Earlier this year, Apple revealed several new devices, including its Amazon Echo and Google Home competitor, HomePod.
