iPhone X day is upon us. It's The Daily Crunch.

THE DAILY CRUNCH
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12 2017 By Darrell Etherington

It's iPhone day! Nothing else matters! Or at least, other stuff matters but it'll probably keep until tomorrow. Still there was a lot of news outside of new iPhones, which will be revealed around an hour after you get this.

1. Watch and learn from Apple's iPhone event

TechCrunch will be live on the ground, reporting all the news here via live blog. You can also check out Apple's official stream, or just follow along with our event page for all articles as they drop.

The big news will be the iPhone X of course, and what it looks like/when it's available/for how much/and how many, but there will still be plenty of other bits of news, too, including new Apple Watch, new Apple TV, new iOS features and much more.

2. GM debuts its first mass-market autonomous production car

GM and Cruise are going to mass produce a self-driving vehicle. Based on the Chevrolet Bolt platform, it's got all the sensors it needs for full autonomy once the software is ready. And it has fully redundant self-driving systems. These are destined for fleets, not individual consumers, however, so don't ask your deal about lease options.

3. 23andMe confirms $250 million raise

DNA testing startup 23andMe has confirmed news originally reported by TechCrunch that it's raised $250 million in a new round led by Sequoia. The company's valuation would sit at around $1.75 billion thanks to this. It's building the genetics information graph, so it's probably worth that and then some.

4. Honda evokes its roots with a futuristic city electric car

Everything old is new again. And in the case of this diminutive electric concept by Honda, which is set for production in 2019, that's a very good thing.

5. Nintendo is bringing back the NES Classic

Stop paying gouging prices on eBay for the NES Classic immediately: Nintendo has announced it'll put the little retro console back into production by 2018, so that there will be more opportunity to buy a new one. That's very good news, Nintendo, now don't screw it up.

6. Social Finance's CEO to step down after sexual harassment suit

SoFi CEO Michael Cagney will step down at the end of this year, after it came to light that he faced a sexual harassment lawsuit. Cagney says the logic is that he wants to avoid all the negative press attention on the company that's resulted.

7. Samsung says it has 650,000 Note 8 pre-sales already

Samsung says its latest phablet is its strongest selling yet, with 650,000 pre-sales already ahead of its September 15 launch, which is more than 2.5 times those received for the Note 7. Nice numbers Samsung, but it's still iPhone day.
