Not everything at Apple is iPhone and Watch Series. In the product portfolio of the American company there is everything, and this October they plan to launch some very interesting products. Let’s see them.
When we say Apple, we get to say iPhone. The mobile phone from Tim Cook’s company is the company’s most famous device, but not the only one. Apple has it all: iPad, watch-seriesspeakers, computers, video players, AirPods…
And if a few days ago we brought the analysis of the iPhone 14 and all its variants, now we are pleased to announce the products of Manzana that they have to arrive this October, a key month for the company with the bitten apple.
As explained at the event in early September, the company plans to renew several of its current lines, such as computers, tablets, the television ecosystem and the smart speaker.
Let’s put, one by one, the tech gadgets we expect Apple to show/release us this October.
new ipads
While Apple’s current tablet, the iPad 10.2 (2021), was released in September of last year, the 2022 iPad is one of the products we expect to see this October.
There has been talk that the iPad 2022 will finally abandon the outdated design of the rangewhich still has a home button and thicker bezels, to bring the cheapest iPad in line with Apple’s other tablets.
Could also be added for the first time 5G compatibility, and could also have a faster processor (We are talking about the laptop ARM, not the smartphone).
The good news is that the new models seem to be worth it. One of the rumors suggests that the iPad Pro 2022 will come with MagSafe, Y multiple leaks suggest that it will receive an upgrade to Apple’s M2 chipset.
A new Apple TV 4K
The last time we had a new Apple TV 4K was in April 2021when it was presented together with the new iPad Pro, and it seems that the player would experience a big update this October.
There are hints in the latest tvOS software that the new Apple TV could support 8K video, in which case Apple is going to have to rebrand the device to match. And while there’s not a lot of 8K content out there right now, that would be the direction we’re headed.
On the other hand, reliable sources have said that the 2022 Apple TV 4K will come with a faster processor and more memorywhich will make it even more capable for streaming and gaming.
Nevertheless, we will have to wait to see how these improvements influence the price: the current model is sold for 199 eurosand that is the cheap version of 32 GB, since the 64 GB goes up to 219 euros.
New Macs and MacBook Pros
Of course, there are always new Macs and MacBooks in the pipeline at Apple, but based on past release patterns, we think several models will likely be updated this month.
Apple has already said a new 2022 Mac Pro is in development, built on Apple’s ARM chip.And that’s not a surprise given that the current Mac Pro has been running since 2019, which is a long time for an Apple lineup.
Perhaps we are also facing a new Mac mini 2022: The current 2020 Mac mini was one of the devices that ushered in the M1 era, and an updated version based on the M2 chip seems likely. However, from what we’ve heard, the 2022 Mac mini will keep the current design.
Other Apple computers that need to be updated are the 14-inch MacBook Pro (2021) and 16-inch MacBook Pro (2021). Again, it looks like these laptops will be upgraded to the M2 chip, and like the 13-inch MacBook Pro (2022), we may not see any more changes.
Finally, according to the latest reports, it is very possible that we will see how all Apple peripherals related to computing begin to carry Type-C charging stations, abandoning the current Lightning cable. And the same with the new AirPods.
A new Home Pod
The HomePod was officially discontinued in March 2021But the smart speaker market is still doing brisk business, and there have been rumors that an Apple HomePod 2 is on the way.
The original Apple HomePod was one of the best wireless speakers out there, so Apple’s decision to focus on the smaller, cheaper Apple HomePod mini was somewhat of a surprise.
The rumors that have arisen around it ensure that this new model would come with a screenin an evolution that matches what Amazon and Google have done with their own lines of smart speakers.
Of course, the HomePod mini also needs to be renewed (almost two years old now) and there have been leaks suggesting that we could also have a revamped version of that product.
If a new model comes out, hopefully there will be some improvements in terms of audio quality and the features it supports.
Having seen all this, it is worth saying that all the prophecies do not have to be fulfilled or that all the products come out at the same time this October, only that there are many possibilities and that they are gadgets and terminals that Apple has on its spreadsheet. route.
