Apple is holding an event at its campus in Cupertino on Monday.

It's expected to unveil a new iPhone with a smaller screen, an update to the 9.7-inch iPad bringing keyboard and stylus support, and updates to the Apple Watch.

There's also the chance that CEO Tim Cook alludes to the company's battle with the FBI, reveals new updates to iOS, or updates Siri and iCloud.

Apple is also streaming the presentation on its website.

Whatever Apple announces, we'll be liveblogging it right here.
