'Unleashed' Apple Event Focusing on New Macs to Take Place on October 18

I'm going to be holding out for M2X but I'm glad this is finally happening.
I just sold my M1 MacBook Pro for $250 less than I paid for it (not bad) but I replaced it with a 13” iPad Pro + Keyboard so I plan on skipping the first generation of the 14” MBP w/ M1X and assessing my needs when the M2 comes out in a year. I’m very happy with the iPad Pro as my mobile computer at the moment but I also have an iMac at home that I use 90% of the time.
I would like to see a new AirPods Pro alongside the gen 3 and a surprise MagSafe charging Mat for AirPods, Watch (with faster charging) and iPhones 12/13. I know AirPower is dead but with MagSafe, they could have cracked a combo charger.

You can get a M3 from BMW
I am just not convinced that Apple will use the “x” nomenclature but we’ll find out next week
It's not a redemption but
im still rocking a late 2012 MacBook pro that's nearly on its last leg. still usable but really starting to show its age. can't wait to upgrade!#maxedoutmacbookplease
For only $4.99/mo, your subscription to the Touch Bar Pro will continue to bring you value year-over-year as we bring you new enhancements to the service.
I may be in the minority here, but I hope that MagSafe does not make a return. As much as I liked MagSafe, I much prefer the USB type C charging port over any proprietary ditto.
I would expect USB-C charging to still work. Too convenient for docking to get rid of.
Excited for this though, most important thing for me will be multiple monitor support.

A magnificent middle finger to Google for choosing the same release schedule as them, lol
Worst case scenario, unleashed means MagSafe is back, m1 with two more cores unlocked at low end and the real upgraded chip on only the $3k and up high end.
Best case scenario, every Mac they introduce with the Pro label definitely gets a much faster chip than last years and the prices don't go up.
What we will probably end up with is how they did the iMacs, the low end one to keep the starting price the same as before (but it doesn't perform as well because its been crippled by something). The real upgrades start at a new higher price point than before but look, it comes with a colorful keyboard, maybe you won't notice. The high end will always be great, just at a price point non business users should think twice about spending for non critical, not for profit work.
We do not yet know what a Mac Pro will have in it. These chips are the middle of the road speed as far as apple silicon goes. And if they are breaking out warp effects for these, hopefully that means they are faster than we anticipated.

New Mac over anything! That’s the top priority! So over due for an upgrade!
The entire keyboard is a Touch Bar! Say goodbye to mechanical keys that can fail.
Yeah...Google's Pixel event will be in the shadows while everyone keeps talking about the MBP redesign for at least the next week....
Apple, please provide more colours for the MacBook Pro like the recently released iMac!
Nope! Its referring to the power. Ie. Unleash the power
It will be all about the next 'pro' chip. Lets see how many products we get with it

YES! I can finally use my 1100$ gift cards that I've been collecting. 😃👍🏼
Will be interesting to see what's announced. Will a new Mac Mini make an appearance? Or bigger iMac? Or will it just be laptops?
I'm actually more keen though to see if Google announce a new WiFi 6 Nest Mesh WiFi system the following day, don't think they will but you never know.
