Months of rumors, speculation, excitement and occasional naysaying about the future of Apple will culminate today as the company makes its biggest product announcements of the year.
How big of a deal is it?
"Oh, it's huge," says CNET senior editor Scott Stein. "This is Apple's first product event since last October. So you're looking at basically a year's time for one of the biggest companies out there."
iPhone 6: Bigger and better?
The most visible change to the iPhone is expected to be its size. Instead of the current 4-inch display, most analysts are expecting two different size options: 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch models. In addition, the phone may have a new A8 processor and possibly a highly protective sapphire screen.
"I think the iPhone gets a lot of hype because there's only one model a year, and you end up with all these hopes and wishes put on that one model," Stein told CBS News.
"With Apple now it's really about the big screen. A lot of people are wanting the bigger screen, so sure, you're expecting a bigger screen," Stein said, adding that another big expectation is extended battery life.
