New invert colours "smart" mode

^ This is as close to a Dark Mode as we might see, at least until the OLED iPhone is revealed

Any idea what 'FaceTime Live Photos' are?

Probably similar to the one present in High Sierra.

macOS High Sierra lets you save a special moment in a FaceTime call as a Live Photo. Both participants receive a notification that the photo was taken, and the Live Photo goes into your Photos library.

What does "iCloud Remote Backup" mean?

I was wondering this myself.

I'm also wondering what Type to Siri Accessibilty means - guessing an Accessibility feature whereby you don't need to speak in order to communicate with Siri? If that was in the keynote I must have missed it...

You're literally looking at a list of things that were *not* in the keynote.

It wasn't in the keynote. That's why it's on the slide pictured.

In my experience, sometimes entries on these screens are mentioned very briefly in passing, and sometimes that's enough to explain what it is. Hence why I was asking. Thank you again for being so nice and helpful though! :p
