Apple will host the "Unleashed." event virtually on Monday, October 18. As a reminder, below you will find all the important information about the streams and a small preview of what many are expecting.
Apple's "Unleashed." event will officially take place on Monday, October 18th at 7 p.m. in this country. The excitement for the virtual - second - fall event is growing, as the presentation of new MacBook Pro models is expected, among other things. But in addition to the MacBook Pro series, which includes models in two sizes, the new AirPods 3 are also expected. Here is a brief overview!
MacBook Pros with M1X chip
One of the most important announcements at the event could be the new MacBook Pro lineup with M1X chip. Rumors suggest that Apple is working on new 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro models powered by a so-called "M1X" processor. Bloomberg reports that the new M1X chip will have eight high-performance cores and two high-efficiency cores, available in either a 16- or 32-graphics core variant. The device is also expected to support up to 64 GB of memory, while the current M1 chip is limited to 16 GB of RAM. The new MacBook Pros are also reported to have more ports, including MagSafe, HDMI, and an SD card slot. Apple is also expected to ditch the controversial Touch Bar in favor of a classic row of function keys. In addition, both devices are expected to use mini-LED display technology and receive a redesigned case with flat edges.
New Mac mini
In addition to the new MacBook Pro models, a new Mac mini could also be released. Bloomberg has already reported that the new Mac mini will have the same specifications as the M1X MacBook Pro, with up to 64 GB of RAM, a 10-core CPU and 16 or 32 graphics cores. Jon Prosser also claims to have heard of a new Mac mini, which will have a new design as well as a new interior. The casing could appear with a reflective "plexiglass-like" material on the top, combined with an aluminum casing. The device will also have more ports than its predecessor.
macOS Monterey
While Apple released iOS 15, iPadOS 15, tvOS 15, and watchOS 8 last month, we're still waiting for the official launch of macOS Monterey. So it's safe to assume that when Apple unveils a Mac, it will also announce a launch date for macOS Monterey. The new Mac operating system includes a host of new features, including an all-new Safari, AirPlay for Mac, improvements to SharePlay and FaceTime, and more.
AirPods 3
In addition to new Mac devices, Apple could also update the AirPods series. Rumors about the AirPods 3 have been with us for many months. In fact, the first reports were documented over a year ago. According to various rumors, the third generation AirPods will have a similar design to the current AirPods Pro, making them the biggest update to date. Despite the revised casing, however, functions such as active noise cancellation are not to be expected. The audio quality is said to be better compared to the second generation, however. Among other things, there is said to be "noticeably better bass" and the battery life is also said to be longer.
