14 DAY TRIAL // Apple is about to launch its new iPhone generation, but there’s more in terms of hardware coming from the Cupertino-based tech giant this fall.
According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple will take the wraps off a new Mac model next month as part of a dedicated event, and right now, it looks like this device is going to be a notebook.
In other words, a new MacBook is just around the corner, so it’ll be interesting to see if the first laptop featuring a custom Apple Silicon processor is a MacBook Pro or a MacBook Air.
We’ve known for a while that Apple was planning to equip a future Mac with its own chip, but there still are a few things we don’t know, and the exact specifications are among them. However, if today’s report is true, then the first Apple Mac with an in-house chip is just around the corner, which means it’s now just a matter of time until Apple makes the first step away from Intel.
First stop, new iPhones
While a new Mac is also coming rather sooner than later, you shouldn’t expect Apple to take the wraps off this mysterious device at the company’s upcoming October 13 event.
This digital presentation that’s just around the corner will be all about the iPhone, and Apple will unveil four different models, including an all-new iPhone 12 mini with a 5.4-inch screen.
According to people familiar with the matter, however, the new iPhones will hit the shelves at different dates, with the iPhone 12 Pro Max to go on sale in early November. This is because Apple has been struggling with the production process due to suspended activity at the factories operated by some of its partners, including several of them in China.
