Apple is going to organize an event on Tuesday, October 30th, where it’s expected to announce new iPad Pros, an updated MacBook Air, and more.
A pair of new iPad Pros with a new design is expected to be the attraction at the event. The new iPad Pros are said to get new, edge-to-edge screens similar to Apple’s newest iPhones, removing the home button/Touch ID sensor in favour of swiping gesture for navigation and a Face ID scanner. Additionally, Apple is said to be switching over from its proprietary Lightning port to USB-C, a move that would let the new iPad Pros share chargers and accessories with Apple’s laptop.
Along with the bigger hardware changes, Apple is expected to improve the internal hardware on the new iPad Pros, too, upgrading the processor to a new variant of Apple’s recently released A12 Bionic chipset. And in what would be a first for the company, it’s adding a custom Apple graphics chip.
It is rumored that it could be a new heir of MacBook Air, as Apple hasn’t functionally updated the MacBook Air since 2015.
The new Air is said to keep the same 13-inch screen size as the current Air, but at a much higher resolution and with slimmer bezels, along with a much-needed bump in specs.
But even the MacBook Air hasn’t gone as long without an update as the Mac mini, which last saw a new model on October 16th, 2014. But Apple is expected to finally give Mac mini fans a new model at its event, with updated specifications and additional features for professional users.
While the focus is expected to be on the MacBook Air and Mac mini, Apple could give unexpected surprise and update some of its other Macs, too.
