Apple is set to introduce a new MacBook Pro with a touchscreen and an updated iPad Mini “on or around” October 27th, Bloomberg reports. If true, that would put the event just two weeks after the October 13th event Apple announced today, which is rumored to focus on smart home products.
Bloomberg says that the late October event will include an “online video presentation” and an “in-person component for the press,” which it reports is similar to what Apple is planning for the October 13th event.
At this Mac and iPad event, Bloomberg reports that Apple will announce new MacBook Pros that are lighter than what’s available now, have touchscreen OLED displays, and iPhone-like Dynamic Island interfaces. Apple is also apparently planning to announce MacBook Pros that retain the current design but have the M6 chip introduced with the new Mac Mini. And the iPad Mini, which was last refreshed in 2024, will be updated to shift the front-facing camera onto the landscape side of the tablet and to add a “revamped speaker system,” Bloomberg says.
