Apple’s new products are expected on November 1

The date for Apple’s fall hardware event held towards the end of the year is becoming clearer. Bloomberg’s well-known technology analyst Mark Gurman claimed that the products to be introduced at the event to be held towards the end of October will be launched on November 1. Apple, which draws attention with major hardware innovations at this time of the year, will present users with important product updates such as MacBook Pro, iMac and Mac mini this year.

According to Gurman’s predictions, devices with M4 processors will be featured at the event for the first time. The 14-inch MacBook Pro, especially at the entry level, is expected to come with Apple’s new generation M4 processor. In addition, it is reported that 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with higher performance M4 Pro and M4 Max processors will also be introduced. This new processor series is considered a turning point in which Apple will take its own chip technology one step further.

iPad mini and other products are being renewed

It is stated that Apple plans to renew not only its laptop series but also its desktop products. According to Gurman, a new iMac with M4 processor will also be announced at this event. In addition, a completely renewed Mac mini model is expected to be released with M4 and M4 Pro processors. These long-awaited innovations in Apple’s desktop computer category stand out as an important development for performance-oriented users. It is also stated that a new iPad mini model will be introduced at the event. It is thought that this model, which is aimed at Apple’s users looking for a more compact tablet, will also offer some innovations in terms of design.

However, it was noteworthy that Gurman did not mention the low-end iPad model in his news. This confirms the predictions that the long-awaited iPad 11 has been postponed to 2024. As other analysts have noted, the launch of this entry-level tablet is expected in the first quarter of next year. This change in strategy may be an indication that Apple is starting to focus on more premium models in the tablet segment.

Addressing the expectations for 2025, Gurman stated that Apple is working on new MacBook Air models. Stating that 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Airs with M4 processors will be introduced in the first half of 2025, the analyst stated that the new generation iPhone SE model will also meet users during this period. In addition, 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Air models supported by new Magic Keyboard accessories are expected to be released during this period. Gurman stated that Apple plans to renew AirTag, a small but important accessory, in 2025.

The Mac Studio and Mac Pro models developed by Apple for professional users will be renewed with M4 processors, but the release date of these products has been postponed to a later time. According to the information provided by Gurman, Mac Studio is expected to be introduced in mid-2025, and Mac Pro is expected to be introduced at the end of the year. It is stated that these products will stand out as solutions developed by Apple for users who want professional level performance.

Various hardware innovations await users at Apple’s autumn event. The company is expected to attract attention with its products such as MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac mini and iPad mini, especially new models with M4 processors. The products planned for 2024 and 2025 show Apple’s intention to further expand its hardware ecosystem.
