What to expect from the Apple iPad and Mac event

The iPad Pro is perhaps not alone either. A handful of recent reports also suggest that Apple could reveal an updated iPad mini next week, and all we can say in response is It's time. Besides some adjustments in terms of storage capacity and price, the company has not updated its smaller tablet since 2015. People who prefer to have a small iPad (rather than a very large phone) found themselves without a viable upgrade option, but this might not be the case for long.

A research note from supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggests that the new model will get a faster chipset (obviously) and a lower cost display, which, if true, gives the impression that Apple is trying to build a basic tablet in accordance with its current iPad 2018. This sounds logical on the surface, but raises an interesting question: if Apple's 9.7-inch basic iPad costs only $ 329, how much will it cost for an even more modest variation of the theme?

A sequel to MacBook Air?

Now we come to what people dream about. For years, Apple has been more than happy to let its venerable MacBook Air largely untouched. There has been a slight drop in specs last year, but it has not been updated since 2015. This should definitely change next week: Apple is expected to introduce a MacBook entry from range equipped with a Retina screen intended to serve as a successor. to these old tunes. (But do not expect Apple to hang on to the Air brand.)

Recent documents filed with the Eurasian Economic Commission confirm the existence of several Mac models, and these fit well with the rumors we have heard so far. It's a pity that these deposits do not actually offer any noticeable detail. Will it be a more traditional Air successor, with standard USB ports? Bloomberg reports that Apple is launching, in part, this machine in schools, so we can not rule out this possibility completely. Again, we could just look at a cheaper taste of #donglelife. We will discover it one way or another soon enough.

A Mac mini for the pros?

This one scratched our heads a bit. A Bloomberg According to a report released earlier this year, Apple was working on an up-to-date version of its cheap, headless desktop computer for "professional" users. Here's the real question: what are the advantages of Apple? New processors and storage options mean that the new mini will probably suit application developers, but what about high-end video editing and other professional creative efforts for which the Macs are often used?

Apple desktops and laptops have always been popular among the creative ones, but there is no doubt that some of the company's recent hardware decisions have left some professionals feeling pushed back. Limited ports, designs that prevent future advancement, CPU limitation in expensive hardware – the list of issues is long. We know that Apple has an internal team dedicated to meeting the needs of the professional market. So we hope this Mac mini will offer a taste of what it has been calculated.
