Apple Expected to Announce New Products as Soon as Next Week, Supply Chain Sources Say

[HMFIC03]

New Apple TV that could compete as a decent Game Console would nice

Waiting for new iMacs, still with revolutiomagical 5400rpm drives

They will bring back the 8x super drives too!

 

[nuppieri]

some new adapters would be neat...

I’m holding my breath for a WWDC announcement of:

Mac Mini
Mac Pro
Magic Keyboard with Touch Bar
Apple Branded 5K Display

I’ll order all four, day of, sight unseen, if this happens.

You'll have to buy the above in a museum, lol. I hope I'm wrong but I'm afraid all those things are dead end.

 

[The Game 161]

No event? Can't be much upgrade wise

 

[asiga]

The two products I'd like to see:

- A white iPhone 7 (or a change in the silver model so that plastic bands at the back are white rather than grey)-
- MacBook with Kaby Lake and 16GB RAM.

I plan to buy these two products this Spring-Summer. I no longer ask for a MacPro because it's too late for me (got a full-powered hackintosh after a year waiting for a MacPro update, and now I won't be in the market for another MacPro until 3-5 years from now).

A press conference just to announce how great the pipeline is.

I don't see them releasing any new Macs until the fall. Probably iPhone announcement in September, Macs in November. And the pipeline during the January earnings report. Later, rinse, repeat.

some new adapters would be neat...

And a price increase would be neat too apart from the watchbands

Where are the iOS 11 rumours though.

 

[4jasontv]

If they do nothing with the OS then i won't be interested.

It's just a big iphone. Hence why im still using my ipad (3rd gen).

In fact apple says it's the "new" ipad. still works fine.

My ipad 2 works fine, so I'm not sure I need a "new" one. To get me to buy I need an big update on a sub 5" ipad.

 

[cdmoore74]

I remember when the original iPad came out and where I was. I never followed Apple back then and I remember riding past the Apple store in San Francisco while on spring break with the family. I did not realize that people were lining up for iPads at the time.

 

[Applebot1]

Incremental iPad updates. That's my guess.

 

[4jasontv]

Where are the iOS 11 rumours though.

They apple watched the last macbook and are advertising the ipad as a laptop. The next iOS update will run on imacs. It will be the most magical iPad ever.

I can hear Phil saying: these are our fastest Macs ever... you can now have an iMac faster than a MacPro .

Than you'll see the environmental list:
Arsenicum free
Toxic free
Etc.

And... all glued to one piece so if one thing goes broken, the whole computer is waste. (Environment my ass, it's all marketing $$$$)

 

[Appleaker]

I know that the 10.5-inch iPad Pro is set to be announced sooner than the end of the year, and I don't think it'll be WWDC. I think the delay could just mean a delay in release.

 

[btrach144]

New Macs next week. New iPads in April

 

[DrumApple]

Updated 12" MacBook PLEASE. Hell, if I were them I would have done an emergency refresh just to wipe away that despicable keyboard from the company's history ASAP.

 

[Chancha]

A jailbroken iPhone 6/7 plus running iPad apps is literally the same as an iPad Pro in terms of functionality, save the Pencil which not everybody needs. For home browsing, email replying and general couch media consuming purposes even an iPad 3 is still good enough.

If they seriously roll out 3 sizes for the iPad without at least something fundamentally new such as wireless charging or a desktop grade iOS then I see no point it getting one at all.

 

[blairh]

They won't get rid of the home button on the iPad until the fall. So if the iPad gets updated next week, expect only a spec update and no keynote.

 

[OldSchoolMacGuy]

Nothing major as no event has been announced yet. Apple doesn't do invites less than a week out.

 

[The Barron]

How about some new iMacs, Apple?!

 

[blackcrayon]

Hmm. Another iPad size? Why?

This must be the first you've heard of it and haven't read any of the other articles. It's rumored to be the same size as the existing 9.7" iPad, but with a larger screen. To recap:

Another iPad Size? no
Another iPad Screen size (that will eventually replace the 9.7" sized screen iPad)? Yes

Yes they do, they have done it in the past, invites have been sent out the week before.

They are afraid the competition will beat them to market if they send out invites more than a week in front

 

[GhostRaider]

You guys shouldn't get your hopes up on new Macs soon. Either they could announce them at WWDC as before or until October. I doubt they'll announce anything other than iPads.
