Following the launch of the iPhone 16 series in September, Apple is expected to announce four new products at the MacBook and iPad launch events later this month. However, an official invitation from Apple confirming the date and time of the event is still awaited.

iPad Mini 7:
Apple is said to have redesigned the iPad Mini 7’s screen assembly to alleviate this design flaw. This design flaw caused one half of the display to update slower than the other, creating a wobbly effect while scrolling.
However, despite this improvement, the iPad Mini 7 is still expected to feature a 60Hz refresh rate and continue to use LCD technology. The previous iPad Mini 6’s “jelly scroll” issue led to a class action lawsuit against Apple, with some users claiming that the defect made their device “unusable.”
In terms of performance, reports suggest that the iPad Mini 7 is likely to have a more powerful chip than its predecessor, which is powered by the A15 Bionic processor. Apple has not yet revealed which chip will be used in the iPad Mini 7, but there is speculation that it could include an A17 Pro chip or an A18 chip, both of which could give the device a significant performance boost. It will bring improvements and support for Apple Intelligence.
M4 MacBook Pro:
An unboxing video of the new M4 MacBook Pro, powered by the M4 chip, recently leaked online, giving us a glimpse of what’s coming later this month. It is estimated that it is equipped with a 10-core CPU and a 10-core GPU. The unboxed model shown in the video features 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of internal storage, as well as a 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display with ProMotion technology, offering a crisp resolution of 3024 x 1964 pixels. I will.
In terms of design, the device is strikingly similar to its predecessor, the MacBook Pro with the M3 chipset. The retail box features the same wallpaper artwork as the previous model, and the laptop reportedly measures 1.55 x 31.26 x 22.12 cm and weighs 1.6 kg.
In terms of connectivity, the MacBook Pro M4 is rumored to have three USB Type-C ports with Thunderbolt 4 support, a MagSafe 3 port, a headphone jack, an HDMI port, and an SDXC card slot. The laptop is also said to come with a 70W power adapter that can be charged via USB Type-C.
M4 Mac Mini:
Apple is expected to make its first major redesign of the Mac Mini since 2010. The M4 Mac Mini could be Apple’s smallest desktop computer yet, with a chassis roughly the same size as the Apple TV, but at 1.4 inches taller than its predecessor.
The M4 Mac Mini comes with three USB-C ports, an HDMI port, and a port for a power cable. Meanwhile, according to reports, the M4 Mac Mini may also have RAM increased from 8GB of the previous model to 16GB this year.
M4 iMac:
The iMac will also receive a major upgrade this month, gaining support for Apple’s latest M4 series chipset. Additionally, the new iMac is likely to come with 16GB RAM compared to the previous model’s 8GB RAM, presumably to enable Apple Intelligence features.
Other than these, there are no rumors of any major improvements to the iMac, and it is likely that it will have almost the same features as its predecessor.
