so you're suggesting in 2023, that's fine, I'm not the one who needs/wants one but there are still gaps in the Mac lineup it seems, eg Mini with a Pro chip

Gurman: New iPads and Macs May Be Announced Through Press Releases, No October Event

Fair, but many retailers including Apple (which is really rare) have had discounts or promotions on the ATV for the last few months, which is the only reason I was thinking it may be this fall. Agreed that the HP would have an event so if no fall event then at a future date.
Soooo… the iPad Pro line up will be the exact same as they were back in 2018… so no refresh of the design from 2018 - 2024…. That’s hell of a long time for it basically look identical…
If the rumours about MagSafe and the 2 x 4 pin connectors are anything to go by I expect apple will want to have an event for it… plus the redesigned basic iPad that’s rumoured also… just seems odd for them not to have an event…

I guess they could launch an M2 Max/Ultra version of the Mac Pro in the existing case (similar to the M1 Macs) to meet the 2 year transition timeline and then include the follow-up with M3 ultimate (or whatever it's called) with a new case sometime next year.
Very disappointing if same basic design as 2018. I really want them to move the front facing camera. It looks terrible on the wrong side with a Pro device connected to the Magic Keyboard.
No way they are gonna announce the Apple Silicon Mac Pro via a press release
I really want to upgrade my 2018 12.9” iPad Pro. the M1 out now is plenty, but was hoping to hold out for a decent hardware redesign.
we’ll see.
we’ll see.
Same here! Apple has shown me very few reasons to upgrade from my 2018 and it definitely seems like the M2 model won’t bring anything big either. Apple seriously put the 11” pro in an odd spot after updating the iPad Air… The rumors about the 11” not getting mini LED makes things even worse.
At this point it looks like I’ll be holding onto my 2018 for another year and hopefully the M3 iPad Pro will have a new design and OLED display.
What do you want in an Apple TV update? (Except maybe a cheaper version?) The current Apple TV is super fast and supports all current formats. Not sure what else there is left to do? I mean they barely touched the software this year…
A cheaper version for sure. While I still have a 2015 HD in the kitchen, and it serves well, it's seven years old, and due for an update of some kind.
Problemo grande, if you've been waiting on the Apple Silicon Mac Pro for what seems like an eternity.
Agreed. I don't need all the pomp and circumstance. Just let me order the M2 Mini. They can could have easily done the same with this year's iPhone refresh.
While M2 is more like M1.5 and probably could've been skipped entirely. I would still love to see M2 Pro/Max in 14"/16" with at least HDMI 2.1 ports support. I'm still not sure what's up with their unused HDMI 2.1 features on Apple TV.
(In case anyone asks, a lot of folks now have 42/48" OLED TVs but they only come with HDMI 2.1 port, Apple blocks 4k@120hz with an active converter, HDMI > USBC, which worked fine on Windows laptops).

I don't care much about the MBP upgrade and I certainly won't be selling my M1 Max MBP for M2 (a.k.a. M1.5), that said, why have they taken so long to update the Mac Mini, especially the higher-end Intel one? Mac Mini needs that M2 Pro (maybe the Pro/Max versions weren't ready until now and they wanted to wait to update all Mac Mini models?)
Disappointing no rumors for the 24" iMac. I guess they're skipping M2 with that and will update it with M3 in the spring.

In this newsletter Gurman did say there is possible update to Apple TV this year (more RAM). So a spec bump like the other products. Next year he’s looking for a possible combined Apple TV/HomePod/FaceTime product launch.
I could since maybe 1200 people in the USA will be able to afford to buy it.
I have M1 ipp 11. Definitely no reason. Not that really should but no display changes means, no way.
