Apple has a week of product reveals planned for us - here's everything we expect

After Apple’s uncover of nan M4 spot earlier this year, and its important capacity improvements (which we talk astatine magnitude successful our M4 iPad Pro review), each eyes are now connected what nan institution has successful shop for its Mac and MacBook devices, which astatine nan infinitesimal are still utilizing M3 chips.

We’ve conscionable had nan biggest hint yet that M4-powered Macs are astir to driblet acknowledgment to Apple's VP of Worldwide Marketing, Greg Joswiak, who teased connected X that an upcoming ‘week of announcements’ is group to footwear disconnected connected Monday, October 28. Along pinch recent rumors surrounding accumulation of nan M4 MacBook Air, it looks for illustration it could beryllium a very breathtaking week for Apple fans - truthful here’s what we expect to see.

M4 MacBook Pro

With Apple’s M4 Pro and Max chips yet to beryllium unveiled, this upcoming showcase could beryllium nan perfect opportunity to show disconnected nan powerful M4 variants, particularly arsenic nan M4 MacBook Pro 14-inch and 16-inch models will almost surely beryllium revealed, pinch Apple hopefully highlighting nan awesome capacity leap from nan erstwhile M3 Pro and Max chips.

Russian YouTuber Wylascom supposedly leaked a caller exemplary of nan MacBook Pro that comes pinch nan modular M4 chip, which if legitimate, intends nan guidelines configuration of nan laptop will utilize a 10-core CPU and GPU conscionable for illustration nan M4 iPad Pro, arsenic opposed to nan M3’s 8-core CPU, perchance indicating a caller attraction connected Apple Intelligence (the company’s fledgling effort astatine artificial intelligence) - though Wylascom’s info should of people beryllium taken pinch a atom of salt.

The 1 alteration complete past year’s M3 type we do dream to spot is that nan guidelines exemplary of immoderate caller MacBook Pro comes pinch astatine slightest 16GB of unified representation alternatively than 8GB - this will beryllium highly beneficial for gaming, which is becoming a prominent caller attraction for Mac devices pinch caller releases for illustration nan Resident Evil 4 remake. Of course, immoderate laptop that’s marketed astatine contented creators and professionals successful 2024 really shouldn’t beryllium coming pinch conscionable 8GB of memory.

M4 Mac mini

Expected alongside nan M4 MacBook Pro uncover is simply a redesigned M4 Mac mini, pinch Apple’s plans to make it nan smallest machine it has made - astatine least, arsenic reported by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman (who has a beardown estimation arsenic a reliable leaker of all-things Apple). Its size is expected to beryllium akin to nan Apple TV, which should beryllium to beryllium highly beneficial for those looking for sleek desktop setups.

Fortunately, its unified representation will reportedly beryllium starting astatine 16GB, and maxing retired astatine 32GB. As we mentioned earlier, 8GB of RAM for Windows PCs and Macs has been criticized arsenic underpowered for a agelong while, and it will beryllium awesome to spot Apple yet measurement distant from this inclination for its M4-powered devices.

M4 iMac

Gurman’s reporting (amongst different leaks) has suggested that we’ll besides beryllium getting an updated iMac arsenic portion of adjacent week’s slate of reveals. Besides nan M4 spot itself, location isn’t overmuch we tin show you astir nan upcoming iMac - though nan bully news is that Apple is besides reportedly fresh to unveil its caller Magic accessories, which will see a caller Magic Mouse.

With nan M4 iMac, we would emotion to spot 16GB of unified representation arsenic modular present arsenic good - nan M3 exemplary was configurable up to 16GB aliases 32GB, but nan guidelines exemplary only had 8GB, and we really dream that Apple doesn’t repetition this.

Beyond 2024 - M4 MacBook Air

As we mentioned earlier, nan M4 MacBook Air is almost decidedly still coming - successful fact, it’s rumored to beryllium nan apical privilege for Apple’s 2025 merchandise schedule. This makes consciousness considering nan recent mediocre income of Mac products, and really celebrated nan MacBook Air is - Apple will apt beryllium keen to denote a caller and improved type of its biggest laptop seller arsenic soon arsenic imaginable (without annoying anyone who has precocious bought nan M3 model).

As reported by Mark Gurman, nan M4 MacBook Air will reportedly stay nan aforesaid successful position of its design, pinch nan M4 spot being nan only awesome alteration.

This is bully news for anyone looking guardant to buying a MacBook Air. The quality betwixt 8GB and 16GB unified representation models was very important connected nan M3 model, truthful expect nan aforesaid to use to nan incoming M4 MacBook Air.

M4 Mac Studio

Finally, since Apple’s attraction is supposedly zeroed successful connected M4 MacBook Air accumulation for early 2025, nan somewhat unloved chunky boy that is nan Mac Studio is expected to get pinch M4 astatine a later day (again, according to Gurman’s sources). The Mac Studio is fundamentally a powerful mini PC that looks for illustration a bulkier Mac mini, but aimed astatine imaginative professionals. It was claimed to beryllium successful simultaneous accumulation alongside nan MacBook Air, but this has apparently changed - nan existent anticipation is betwixt March and June, truthful not excessively agelong aft nan MacBook Air.

Do you person a peculiar Mac merchandise you’re looking guardant to? Be judge to fto america cognize connected societal media - for Apple, nan caller MacBook Pro is doubtless nan main arena planned for this incoming ‘week of announcements’, but to beryllium honorable we’re much willing successful a reimagined Mac mini if it’s genuinely group to beryllium nan smallest machine from Apple.
