Of all these predictions I am most curious about the iPad Pro redesign. What is there left to redesign, I wonder? 🤔
This is kind of repetitive news. We've already had rumors about these products next year. This would be a more interesting piece of news if they had more details beyond what we've already heard.
But we just got a full redesign of the Apple Watch!Next year is going to be an expensive one for me…have to prepare:
- iPad Pro 11” redesign (hopefully also gets mini-led or OLED)
- Larger iMac redesign or smaller Mac Pro/apple display, have to see how this plays out
- Apple Watch Series 8, hopefully a full redesign
- iPhone 14 (if they go back to the iPhone 4 style, instant buy)
So besides the notches for the bands to fit into, and the Digital Crown, what is the same about the series 7? You are suggesting they scrapped one design and went with another design. I am sorry, another new design. That is possible, but it doesn't seem very efficient.They weren't wrong, Apple just scrapped the design last minute due to manufacturing issues.
You can't make such changes at the last minute, which would result in months of production delay (longer than the "Coming This Fall" date Apple is giving right now).They weren't wrong, Apple just scrapped the design last minute due to manufacturing issues.
Oh, I fully appreciate that they need to post stories for views/clicks. I have no problem with that at all. In fact, I expect and encourage it.Yes the rumours are repetitive. But MacRumours is a business. How do you think they pay the bills? Most likely like everyone else, advertising. And that means page views.
The cost to join MacRumors is essentially our participation. Putting up with these stories IMO, is not the worse thing in the world. Click, read, roll eyes and move on. 😏
Where did you hear/read that? I would think that the prototypes would show them what problems there would be in manufacturing them way before they would have to make a "last minute" decision.They weren't wrong, Apple just scrapped the design last minute due to manufacturing issues.
It’s depends who defines the word “redesign”. For example to these analysts a redesign could be that the volume button gets moved to the top like the mini 6, FaceID relocated, maybe thicker to make it more durable to bends, maybe a different material like Ti to get a leg up over the iPhone 14 Pro, maybe smaller bezels similar to AW7, etc, etc.I wonder how much of a redesign the iPad Pro can receive. Feels like at a certain point any of these products (iPhone, iPad, MacBook) you can really only iterative and make minor changes.
Amazing how nice the iPad Pro still feels, especially for a design that's 3 years old. Really curious where they go with it.
You are on the wrong site then mate 😝I don’t believe rumors anymore
I remember that but it was more along the line of “ if you have nothing good to say, then say nothing at all”.As a child, I learned not to say anything if I have nothing to say. Obviously Gurman went to a different school.
Yeah it doesn’t work that way.They weren't wrong, Apple just scrapped the design last minute due to manufacturing issues.
That’s seems like a personal problem to just “trust” any rumours. It’s just fun and games and no one is getting hurt, well except your feelings of trust. 😜After all rumours for this year which didn't materialise, I am learning not to trust any anymore.
Companies have backup plans for products, it’s not all eggs in one basket and then sit back and hope for the best.Yeah it doesn’t work that way.
Updates usually occur annually unless it’s some segmented product or some other reasons.really, updates to existing products? Newsflash ... these guys are getting boring ...

Nah it’s logic, you place too much importance on rumours. It’s fun and games, believe what you want? For personal use, you decide what fits your needs presently or if you can wait. If it was a business it would not matter as it’s purchase whatever fits the bill presently.wow, do those guys have you wrapped around their pinkies ...
Macs don't get updates annually. Neither have iPads really except the cheapest model.Updates usually occur annually unless it’s some segmented product or some other reasons.
iPad Pro update was expected as the 11” did not receive miniLED in 2021.
Meh. The predictions may be wrong, but at the very least they are detailed.Breaking news: There will also be new iPhone and Mac models in 2022. But don't tell anyone.
Get out more and enjoy life, if rumours is dictating your purchase decisions and having an effect on your mental health I would recommend to seek help and reassess you life and purpose.Lol. Sorry Mark, we’re still pissed about the wrong Apple Watch leak. We’re starting to look at you different now.
If Apple were able to scrap things 'last minute' in this way, why on earth would we look into rumors a year from now? All of those could be scrapped even easier!They weren't wrong, Apple just scrapped the design last minute due to manufacturing issues.
