No need to choose - get both! The emoji will offer you new ways to express your joy when the new Mini arrives, and the colorful watchbands will cheer you up if it doesn’t.
Or you could order an emoji watchband for your Apple watch.

You said TVOS, not iOS...did you mean iOS?
For me, personally, I would like two new desktop computers - a revised Mac mini in the same chassis, outfitted with 28w 4-core Coffee Lake U-Series CPUs, Iris Plus 655, Thunderbolt 3, same ports and arrangement as the 2014 Mac mini. I would prefer the SO-DIMM slots be put back in, but I am fine with one 2.5" HDD bay and one PCIe slot for NVMe storage arrangement that the 2014 min currently uses.
I would then like a new Mac, simply called Mac, that is in a larger chassis, with better cooling that contains either a Core i5-8305G Processor with Radeon Pro WX Vega M GL graphics and a BTO option to the Core i7-8706G Processor with Radeon Pro WX Vega M GL graphics OR a choice between the Core i7-8750H/Radeon Pro 555x/655 and a BTO to the Core i7-8850H/Radeon Pro 560X/660 depending on AMD's release schedule, along with the usual goodies of two TB3 ports, 802.11ac/BT 5.0, 4 USB 3.0, HDMI 2.0 out (needs LSPCON), SDXC slot, Audio In/Out, 4K/5K support. The HDMI 2.0 port would be for VR development for those that need that.
However, if I was to get my wish and this actually became reality, I want them running macOS, not iOS, nothing else but macOS Mojave.
OMG thank you! My life just got real real good!Or you could order an emoji watchband for your Apple watch.
Just received an extensive survey from Apple about the Mac mini. This confirms that new Mac mini is almost certainly coming. And soon.
Oh yes, that is a must have!Sounds like you are an excellent candidate for the new Apple Headband

Or, maybe it means that the survey, which was supposed to go out 3 years ago, was accidentally sent when they were actually instructed to put it in the trash folder. Because the new mini is never coming. Ever.
I have details on the October Surprise from an unimpeachable source hiding in Redmond: a fashion-updated iMac Pro (your choice of emoji on the "chin" in place of the Apple logo), an even thinner MacBook Pro with one (virtual) port and two touch bars (one for showing marching emojis), and an ATV repackaged in the no-longer-needed Mac Mini cases left over from the 2014 debacle soldered shut for your protection. The keynote speech will be given by a holographic Daffy Duck (or was that holistic?).
I think we're all getting punch-drunk from the waiting.

No, I made it clear in the comments section that I expected it to be released soon. So the new Mac mini is almost certainly coming.
But the point is it's not officially supported.

Given that the Q4 results call is on a Thursday this year (November 1), we could be seeing the hardware event as late as Tuesday 30th. This fits with the normal practice of Apple leaving it quite late in October for the hardware release and it's unheard of for Apple to put events on in November (so forget a November 5 date).
Therefore we're accepting that Apple will have *some* sales in the current quarter but how near?
We only have to wait for news of the invites to world Mac press to get the hype started properly. And the lead time of invites lets us narrow things down.
We can rule out Tuesday October 9 unless it's a press release update because it's too short notice for the event.
October 16 is a happy medium date, it gives a week for first impressions and column inches from the Mac press before they turn their attention to the Q4 results call on November 1 (little over 2 weeks later). We would probably hear about a full event within the week (as invites go out).
We may see invites go out as late as October 23 for an event on the 30th. That's under 3 weeks to go at the outside but the two events would be just a couple of days apart but not unheard of.
Nah. Again, for a work phone I just can't be arsed with it.
I used to have a jailbroken iPad Mini 4 I used to cheat at Pokemon Go with though.
Actually, that might be a bad sign. A number of forum members reported receiving a Mini survey a year ago, and we know how that worked out.
I bought one. Nice little Windows machine - 4 core/8 threads. Only issue is that I have to use an adapter for everything. TB3 and HDMI.
since I will be moving on and going windows and linux . I started looking at a tablet for replacing my iPad mini 3. I found a Huawei Mediapad M5 8.4 inches ordered it for 300 on sale at newegg and I am now using it. So far I like it . Its sad that apple and I don't have the same needs. I now own 3 samsung phones no iPhones
I own the Huawei tablet. About a dozen pcs and a few mac minis 2012 and 2014. I am typing on a base 2014 with 4gb ram and an external 4tb boot drive.

Guess the new Mac Mini ain’t coming... It’s all about the iPhone, watch bands, and those dumb emojis...
Maybe the new “mini” will merely be a glorified docking station for an iPhone?! Best of both worlds - even more iPhones sold and the folks shouting for a new desktop get some breadcrumbs that should shut ‘em up for another year or two ...
Not me. A docking iPhone ain't even close to what a desktop computer can do.
Should’ve been more obvious with some sarcasm tags ...
