Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, known for his accurate leaks about unreleased Apple items, has reported that Apple will host a hands-on event for its new products in Los Angeles on Wednesday, October 30.
Event Details
This event is meant to let the media test the new devices, meaning they should be ready for this date. This suggests a launch on October 30, though an announcement could also happen the day before. Gurman mentions that Apple is likely to unveil the new Macs through a livestream while simultaneously releasing press materials. The following products are anticipated to be announced at the event:
Product Expectations
The MacBook Pro and iMac are not expected to undergo significant changes, except for the new processor. In contrast, the Mac mini is rumored to feature a complete redesign with a smaller case and USB-C ports at the front, completely omitting USB-A ports. New Mac accessories are also expected to come with USB-C port enhancements. Our benchmarks (included below) indicate that the cooling system of the Apple M4 in the iPad Pro is much quicker than that of the Apple M3 Pro, meaning Mac users can look forward to a meaningful upgrade.
