Last year Apple hosted its Mac event in November, but in the past it has hosted Mac events in October. Until now, it was unclear whether Apple will stick to its November or October schedule for this year.

In its latest Power On newsletter, Gurman says the company is set to announce M1X-powered MacBook Pros within the next month, noting that “Apple typically makes its major Mac new releases in October. So stay tuned. In the paid section of the newsletter, Gurman also reiterated what we can expect from the new machines in terms of performance.

The Apple M1X chip, the likely name of a more graphic and professional M1 chip, is indeed still relevant for 2021. We’ll likely see it appear first in a new line of MacBook Pro next month and a Mac mini. high end at one point. The M1X has been developed in two variations: both with 10 CPU cores (eight high performance and two high performance) and 16 or 32 graphics cores.

A previous report suggests that alongside the new MacBook Pros, Apple may also be announcing a redesigned Mac mini. Apple last month announced the iPhone 13, Apple Watch Series 7, a next-generation iPad, and the sixth-generation iPad mini. Along with the new Macs, the company is also expected to launch third-generation AirPods before the end of this year.
