Abstract:
Apple is said to hold a second round of new product launches in late October, which may be scheduled around October 27 at the earliest. The highlights include MacBook Pro with OLED screen and touch functions, and a new generation of OLED iPad mini. The report quoted Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman as saying that Apple is also planning to launch 14-inch MacBook Pro and iMac equipped with M6 chips. Apple has not officially announced the October 27 release schedule, and the specific date is still a plan disclosed by the media.
The rumored touch OLED MacBook Pro will be available in 14-inch and 16-inch models, will be thinner and lighter than existing models, and will have a smart island at the top of the screen. The product is still classified as the MacBook Pro series; there had been speculation that it might be renamed "MacBook Ultra", but this Bloomberg report believes that the new machine still belongs to the MacBook Pro family. The report does not provide confirmed parameters such as screen resolution, brightness, chip model, memory configuration, battery life or price, nor does it clearly explain the specific product configuration relationship between the touch-screen OLED model and the M6 14-inch MacBook Pro, so these details should not be regarded as finalized.
The new iPad mini is said to use an OLED screen, adjust the position of the front camera for horizontal video calls, and redesign the speaker system. Previous news about the A20 Pro chip came from Apple code clues and media reports, not Apple's official confirmation; Bloomberg's report also did not announce the screen size, refresh rate, storage capacity or price of the machine.
Apple’s release rhythm may be divided into two rounds: Bloomberg previously reported that the company plans to introduce new smart home hubs, Apple TV 4K and HomePod mini around October 13, and launch new Mac and iPad products at the end of the month. Bloomberg said that both rounds of launches may include online video introductions and on-site media experiences, but there is no official confirmation from Apple that this will be a traditional offline launch. If the news is true, the lineup in late October will also include the M6 version of the iMac; Apple has also previously stated that a high-end Mac Studio equipped with an M5 Ultra chip and 512GB of memory is planned to be launched in late October.
