New MacBook Pros Likely to Launch at Apple Event This Month, Says Gurman
- Thread starter MacRumors

I don't know if they'll replace the current MBP immediately, but I think the 13" MacBook Pro size will be eventually discontinued and after that all MBPs will be at least 14". Perhaps something like this:
2020 - M1: 13" MacBook Air, 13" MacBook Pro, Mac mini, 24" iMac
2021 - M1X: 14" & 16" MacBook Pro, Mac mini (new design), 30" iMac (wishful thinking?). M1 models would continue to be sold.
2022 - M2: 13" MacBook Air, 14" MacBook Pro, Mac mini (new design), 24" iMac. Old M1 models discontinued.
Personally, I just want a Mac mini with more ports and a new design. I don't need an M1X. My friends and relatives want the 29/30" iMac though. Alternatively, I could get a 29/30" iMac and use my 30" Cinema HD Display as a second monitor and don't bother with a Mac mini at all. Right now I use a 2017 iMac beside a Mac Pro with that 30" Cinema Display, but Apple is offering me over CAD$900 to buy back my used iMac.

Gurman and Kuo desperately need to drop a big rumor like DylanDK’s iPad M1 rumor to let us know they actually have an inside source and not just guessing. Lol
Apple is renown for plentiful ports with convenient placement. Your desire will surely be fulfilled this product cycle!
I heard we will need to link a vaccine passport to our Appleid to be authorized to turn on a new M1 MacBook.
I just want to keep something dope like the Touch Bar. I want a professional specked portable with interesting, creative features, not just another high-end standard laptop
According to Apple Track Mark Gurman scores 87.3% accuracy with his predictions. Sorry, you were saying before I interrupted you?

This month when? How does this leaker not know the exact date?
Gurnan is always stating the obvious.

My mid-2014 MBP is feeling long in the tooth. While she still pumps, I’m ready to step into the freezer* - I mean, future.

Only enthusiasts who follow news will be doing that. You forget we are the outliers, not the norm.
The average Apple customer doesn’t even know they shouldn’t buy the regular 16” these days. I have family friends asking all the time if they should, or the 4 port 13”. When I tell them the base Air is typically a better buy they think I’m insane.
shocking news! I am taken by total surprise on this one 
Cannot get here soon enough but I am sure delivery windows will be very long after lunch. I am currently still using the first retina MacBook Pro from 2012 and I was waiting for a redesign to finally upgrade
Really? I just need a new MBP that is more powerful than the current M1 and can do dual monitor from Thunderbolt port. slim design, 4x thunderbolt ports. that's it.
People, you do realize these Macs are not gonna change anybody’s life. The pandemic will still rage on, Monterrey will likely come preloaded and buggy, requiring several .0 updates before the .1 arrives. Reviewers and early adopters will conclude it’s really a negligible performance upgrade over the first gen M1. Most of us will just buy it to continue posting and discussion on Macrumors about the larger iMac and M2 silicon.
The conclusion is, technology has plateaued. As seen with the woefully underwhelming iPhone 13. In fact, I think Apple has kinda bitten off more than they could chew with Apple silicon development and chip shortage just makes things worse.
If you were not desperate to get your current machine replaced, wait 6 months first.
Then again I did buy the M1 MacBook Pro out the gate.
What’s wrong with me??????

I get the fact that this website is named MacRumors, and after all "rumors" is a big part of the name, but come on MR, show some restraint with quoting these guessers and click-bait artists who have been consistently wrong over the past several events.
I think all of us with functioning grey matter can figure out that updates are due for Macs, and we can figure out that those updates will likely be incremental, and we can even figure out that they will soon be discovered to have many little, perhaps some big, flaws. We are talking about Apple here, the company that no longer innovates on the scale it once did. They are predictable. We don't need has been old hacks trying to tell us what we already can figure out on our own.

Where is the 27" iMac (30"?) Update? That's what I'm waiting on.
Q2/2022 is the earliest you’re going to see a revised 27”+ iMac.
I’m predicting an announcement on Tuesday for the event on the following Tuesday, October 12.
Tim will open the show, but then I just want to see Johny, Fed, Joz, and Kevin — nobody else. Enough of the slick diversity promotion videos — just geek the f out.

It'll be this month or next month or neither.
Apple won’t be able to meet demand for the 14” and 16” MBP models, so I would let go of any thoughts of a revised Mac mini this year.
Who's listening to him?
He's making a guess about something almost everyone thinks will happen, gurman or not, so thats what the chatter is really about. All this story did was ignite more chatter about what we already figured was obvious.
And as far as Gurman specifically, many here are saying what an inaccurate douche he is - so not sure where you got the idea people are 'listening' to him.

At this point, I don't care what leakers say. I will wait until Apple confirms it.
