In this photo, Apple CEO Tim Cook demonstrates his company's new AR platform on an iPad Pro.
HomePod in Space Gray
Apple's attempt to compete with Amazon Echo and Google Home comes in the form of the HomePod.
Apple touted it as a music speaker first, smart speaker second, emphasizing the company's commitment to exceptional sound quality.
It comes in white, of course
The HomePod will launch in December, priced at $349.
Users can control HomeKit connected accessories, stream music, ask questions, send messages, and create reminders using the speaker.
Apple's AR/VR cards unveiled
Apple also announced the next Mac OS, macOS High Sierra, would add support for virtual reality.
macOS High Sierra will be available this fall.
In the demo room, Apple had MacBook Pros and iMacs setup with HTC Vive.
Augmented Reality
Apple's ARKit tools for developers will make iOS the largest AR platform overnight, according to the company, once iOS 11 is released this fall.
iMac Pro
Mac Pro users, this one is for you. Apple gave us a sneak peak of the upcoming iMac Pro.
The all-in-one is the fastest, most powerful Mac ever created.
It will begin shipping in December, priced at $1,499.
10.5-inch iPad Pro
The new iPad Pro is only slighter larger in size than the 9.7-inch iPad Pro, but has a screen of 10.5-inches.
It boasts all the same iPad Pro features from before, only better.
Preorders start June 5 priced at $649. It begins shipping in middle of June.
iOS 11 on iPad
iOS 11 for iPad redesigns the majority of the interface. A new app dock looks more like what you'd see on a Mac, and multitasking has a whole new look.
Finally
It finally feels like switching between apps on the iPad Pro, especially when using more than one app at the same time, is something Apple got right with iOS 11.
