Eight Unreleased Mac Models Appear in Regulatory Filings

[MacRumors]

Eight unreleased Macs have appeared in Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) filings, alongside a large number of iOS devices, as spotted by French outlet Consomac.

Three of the Macs have appeared in EEC filings before, including model A2147, A2158, and A2182, while five of them are entirely new to the database. The three that appeared previously were originally listed as running macOS Catalina, but under the new filing they are said to be running macOS Big Sur.

All of the 39 iOS devices listed were previously filed as running iOS 13, but have been refiled for iOS 14. These models are probably the full iPhone 12 lineup, and the large number of devices in the filing may be explained by the range of storage and color options.

The unreleased Mac models are likely to be Macs with Apple Silicon. Following the announcement of Apple Silicon at WWDC earlier this year, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that the first Apple Silicon Macs would be arriving before the end of 2020. New Macs are not expected to appear at today's "Hi, Speed" event, however. Instead, it now looks more likely that they will be unveiled in November.

Anyone know what the three familiar model numbers refer to?

okay two of them are the 16 inch. Could the 16 inch be getting updated with Apple silicon?

Apparently those were filed in June 2019 but never released.

iPhone who? This excites me far more than an iPhone keynote.
A lot of YouTube channels reckon we'll only see 1 model initially so does this point to a refresh of far more models. I'd love to get an Apple Silicon 16' MBP

 

[The Samurai]

Hallelujah!

Best news of the day (>iPhone 12)

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Hallelujah!

Best news of the day (>iPhone 12)

iPhones are being released Lol
Mac event in November.

 

[simonmet]

Yep. Only interested in Macs here.

 

[mailman199]

This is what I am waiting for.

 

[Windoes]

Many colors then 😂

 

[CheesePuff]

This doesn't mean anything for today - they do this weeks in advance of a new release

 

[MiniApple]

" Three of the Macs have appeared in EEC filings before, including model A2147, A2158, and A2182, while five of them are entirely new to the database "

so it's 5 potential ASi Mac devices then?

iMac in two sizes
Macbook in two sizes
MacMini

 

[jmgregory1]

Can’t wait to see what they do with the new AS Macs. But I also want a real iPad Pro 12.9” update sooner than later, that at least includes the A14X, maybe 5G.

 

[zedsdead]

The MacBook 16" could get one more Intel bump to 10nm.

 

[kazmac]

Great news.

I hope they release something in November, would like to update my Mac while still working at home.

 

[2ilent8cho]

Surely there has to be either more than 1 Apple Silicon Mac announced in November, or 1/2 Apple Silicon Mac's + refresh of Intel Mac's or other things like Apple TV.

A whole event will be a lot of time to fill with just 1 MacBook, so may as well tag it on the end of todays keynote if that's all they have to show off.

 

[CheesePuff]

The MacBook 16" could get one more Intel bump to 10nm.

How? They are still not released yet for the models needed on the 16"

 

[JosepPont]

I want a 16 inch refresh no matter if is ASi, Intel, AMD, PowerPC or Motorola

 

[macjustin]

Hoping beyond hope for AS Mac Mini. Not a fan of AIOs, especially as my current 2015 iMacs screen is starting to ghost on light colored UI elements that are on screen for too long.

[Fthree]

I want a Mac that’s so fast that I literally have to do nothing and all my work is already done for me when I open it well maybe it can sense me and open for me too...

 

[MikhailT]

There aren't any Tiger Leak (11th gen, 10nm) H-series CPUs out yet, it's delayed to Q1-Q2 2021. So, I doubt there will be any 16" rMBP bump this year unless they have other parts to update.

Any more delays, chances are Apple might as well just skip to their SoC instead.

 

[Elijen]

I sure hope they will at least show what the Apple SoC on Mac will be capable of.

 

[Elijen]

How? They are still not released yet for the models needed on the 16"

But then the performance increase in % of Apple SoC from the previous model wouldn't look that good on keynote presentation

Normally an iphone event wouldn't be much more either, tell the name, price, show the specs on screen for a minute, then goodbye. Yet they strech it out with shitmojis and slow-mo videos during which I fall asleep two times.
