we know about the big day. The company will likely unveil three new iPhones, including the much-hyped iPhone 8. Pretty amazing, right?

OK, now that we've got that out of the way, it's time to dive into the kind of super secret shit disguised in the above tricolor Apple logo that only your friends who live and breathe that #AppleLife will have been able to spot.。

Are you ready? Are you ready? Because it's about to get real. 。First, Wall Street Journal。tech columnist Joanna Stern tweeted out what we're all thinking.
