There’s just one day to go until the iPhone 17 event, and the Awe Dropping announcements will of course be streaming online.
You have a choice of three different ways to watch the event live, and if you’re watching from a browser, it’s worth having two different tabs open …
While we’re expecting the presentations to be pre-recorded, as we’ve seen for the last few years, it is still streamed as if it were a live event.
We previously outlined the three different ways to watch the livestream:
Although Apple’s aim is to have all three be in sync, that generally isn’t quite the case. When it comes to the two web feeds, you’ll typically find that one of them will be slightly ahead of the other. You might expect the feed from Apple’s own website to be the most immediate and reliable, but surprisingly that isn’t always the case.
I habitually have two tabs open, one for Apple’s website, the other for its YouTube channel, and it’s often the latter which is a little bit ahead.
The difference is small, typically a sentence or three at most, but still, if you want the most “live” of the pseudo-live experience, it’s a good plan to have both tabs open and to mute the one which is further behind.
