Apple Plans Two-Day Event to Showcase Trio of New Macs and iPad Mini

Apple is planning to invite content creators to a two-day product showcase in Los Angeles on October 27 and October 28, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.

Do not expect a traditional Apple Event with a live-streamed video on either of those days, as Gurman said that these will be “experiences” for content creators, similar to one that Apple is holding in New York this Tuesday, October 13.

The following four products are expected to be announced on or around Tuesday, October 27:14″ and 16″ MacBook Pro models with OLED displays: A major MacBook Pro redesign with an OLED display, touchscreen support, M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, a Dynamic Island, a “significantly lighter” design, and potentially Apple’s C1X or C2 modem for built-in cellular connectivity.
24″ iMac: M6 chip and new color options.
14″ MacBook Pro: M6 chip.iPad mini 8: OLED display, A20 Pro chip, landscape front camera, redesigned speaker system, and water-resistant design.Apple previously announced that it will be releasing a Mac Studio with 512GB of RAM in “late October,” so expect that around the same time.

This will likely be Apple’s final major launch in 2026, according to Gurman.

In the meantime, Apple is expected to unveil an all-new HomeView smart home hub, a HomePod mini 2, and an updated Apple TV 4K on Tuesday, October 13.Related Roundups: iMac, iPad mini, MacBook ProBuyer’s Guide: iMac (Don’t Buy), iPad Mini (Don’t Buy), MacBook Pro (Caution)Related Forums: iMac, iPad, MacBook ProThis article, “Apple Plans Two-Day Event to Showcase Trio of New Macs and iPad Mini” first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forumsMacRumors: Mac News and Rumors – Front PageRead More
