MacRumors Roundups: iPad 5, iPad Mini 2, Mac Pro, MacBook Pro and More

[MacRumors]

Last month, we revived our Roundups feature with new pages covering the iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c, iOS 7, and Apple's rumored iWatch, offering a frequently updated one-page summary of the latest news and rumors about each product.

With the new iPhones and iOS 7 now launched, we're continuing to update those articles with information to help site visitors stay on top of the latest developments, but we're also launching a number of new roundups today to address Apple's upcoming iPad and Mac product launches expected over the next several months.

New roundups include:

- iPad 5
- iPad mini 2
- MacBook Pro
- Mac Pro
- iMac
- Mac mini

As with the original set of iPhone and iOS roundups, the goal of each of the new roundups is to simply answer the question of "What are you expecting" for any given product. That opinion is certain to change over time as new rumors are revealed, and the roundups will be updated regularly to reflect that. Roundups for recently updated products will also include details on the new models to help bring visitors up to speed on what they have to offer.

Our roundup index page continues to include a full list of our available roundups ordered by most recently updated. Roundups are also accessible directly through the "Roundups" tab in the navigation bar on all MacRumors pages. We will continue to update the existing roundups and add new ones for other products over time.

Wanting new Thunderbolt display rumors

 

[gmcalpin]

These new pages are GREAT. Thanks, MacRumors! I hope these are continually updated — and perhaps you could link to them from the Buyer's Guide?

This, please.

Will MacMini get Thunderbolt 2?

(Not that I need it but it sounds kind of cool!)

edit: corrected typo in "Thunderbold"

 

[jasonxneo]

"Thunderbold" 2? Never heard of that technology!!

 

[troop231]

Thunderbold 2

That sounds like an awesome typeface name!

 

[tevion5]

I'm not sure why exactly, but for some reason I feel this Mac Pro will be the cheapest of all time. Small form factor means cheaper to produce. Consumer level advertising campaign. It just smells funny to me.

 

[Tankmaze]

aren't the haswell imac just launched ?
waiting for the ipad 5!!!

 

[WardC]

I saw that really big "Mac Pro" front page graphic and my heart stopped for a second....no....no....oh no....they didn't release it?....oh.

"The iPad, iPad mini, Mac Pro, and iMacs are all due for refreshes, suggesting that a major October event could be in the works."

Nope

Except this one is made/assembled in USA, so it may be the most expensive one yet.

Stop with iPad-iPhone rumors and let's get started to hear Mac centric rumors...

Wanting new Thunderbolt display rumors

You want a $4K 4K display?

 

[troop231]

You want a $4K 4K display?

No, I want two of them!

 

[tonyy]

If the mini2 doesn't have retina, I'm going for the Ipad5.

 

[caligomez]

I'm just waiting for the rMBP updates... And a TBD with USB 3..

 

[iLilana]

I only hope

I hope I have enough money for the Macpro. My 2010 iMac needs to be retired or passed on to the children. unless I can get it functioning as a monitor. I need a proper production machine though.

Apple will be updating the displays when they introduce their 4K display, which will coincide with the new Mac Pro launch. The new Mac Pro is the first Mac with built-in support to drive 4K displays, and it can drive three of them. This will likely be a Retina-type display, roughly double the resolution of the current 2560x1440 displays.

Sell it on eBay and put the money towards the new one. That is what I am doing!

 

[AppleDroid]

Just give us the price already.

I'm thinking it'll start $500 cheaper.


btw, this thing in person look amazing. Can't snap pics.. stupid rules.

Thanks, we've been working on these for a little while and that bit from before Tuesday's release slipped through.

I agree. The New Mac Pro is being advertised to edit 4K and run 4K displays. Apple will want to sell those displays along with the new Mac Pro.
