MacBook Pro on the market soon
Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has found out that Apple is likely to launch new MacBook Pro laptops “in the coming weeks.” Gurman says Apple typically launches new Macs in October, and he also provides some details on the specs of the coming MacBooks. Gurman is often well informed and his predictions often come true.
The new laptops will feature Apple’s new M1X chip, which Gurman calls a “probable name” for a “more graphics and professional M1 chip.” The M1X will likely come in two variants, both with 10 CPU cores and with 16 or 32 GPU cores. Is the Mac mini coming? Opinions are divided on that. Gurman says he’s not sure.
Last year, Apple attended its iPhone launch event. This was held in October. A little later than usual due to the Covid-19 pandemic. So that is not the case now. Then Apple came up with an event in November where it launched the first MacBooks with the new Apple-designed chip, the Apple M1.
In addition to the new MacBooks and (possibly) the new Mac mini, Apple is also said to be preparing to launch new, third-generation AirPods.
