Apple analyst, Ross Young on Twitter claimed that the new M1X MacBook Pro models might feature a 120Hz Mini-LED display. Ross Young also claimed this is possible because Apple is using the same suppliers that delivered the iPad Pro panels for the M1X MacBook Pro. Apple launched an iPad Pro model with a 120Hz Mini-LED display back in April, so there’s a possibility of the display coming to the new MacBook Pro. We have heard about the new MacBook Pro featuring a Mini-LED display for a while now. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman and Apple Analyst Ming Chi Kuo both said that Apple plans to bring a Mini-LED Display to the new MacBook Pro to replace the current LCD display. Just last month Apple announced that it will bring a 120Hz Pro Motion display to the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max. Perhaps they’re trying to bring it to different product categories. The new M1X MacBook Pro is expected to launch at the Apple event next Monday at 10am PDT.

Today Apple announced their next event called “Unleashed” which will be a virtual event. The event will be on Monday October 18 at 10:00am PDT. It will be broadcasted live from Apple Park like all other Apple events. This Apple event is rumored to only focus on the new Macs and the new Apple Silicon chips. Previous rumors suggested that Apple is planning to launch the all new redesigned MacBook Pro which will come in two new sizes, 14-inch and 16-inch. Apple is also planning to unveil the new Mac Mini. The new MacBook Pro models are expected to have a completely new design. They will also have more I/O ports like the HDMI port and SD Card Slot. There are also rumors of the MagSafe charger returning to the MacBook. The new MacBook Pro will also have thinner bezels with large displays. The resolutions of these displays have been leaked in Xcode. 3024 x 1964 for the 14-inch and 3456 x 2234 for the 16-inch. The new MacBook Pro is also rumored to include the new M1X chip which will be more powerful than the M1 chip. The name for the new chip was leaked when Apple included M1XMacBook Pro in their tags for the WWDC 21 keynote. AirPods 3 might also make an appearance at this event. AirPods 3 has been rumored to come out for a long time now and we even saw leaked hands on images of the product from factories. It’s possible that it might come but it’s probably more likely to come in a press release down the road. The new AirPods 3 are rumored to have shorter stems and a new design similar to the AirPods Pro. They will also have a new wireless charging case. Finally, Apple will give us a release date for macOS Monterey which was unveiled at WWDC 2021 with a ton of new features. You can watch the Apple event live on Monday October 18th at 10am PDT on YouTube or apple.com.

Apple CEO, Tim Cook in a new interview with Bustle said he’s worried about how social media apps inspire people to endlessly scroll through their phone. Cook is also worried about people using Apple products for things other than creativity. Cook in the interview kept talking about how addiction to technology is a problem and how there should be a limit. He said technology was built to serve humans and it shouldn’t be the other way around. He also claims, Apple is trying in many ways to help people stop this addiction. Tim Cook continued by saying that social media apps that inspire endless scrolling are always surrounding their users with negative things. He claims that Apple products are made for people to enjoy them and not use them for endless scrolling. Cook also showed his support for the Shine App which was created to help people with mental health issues. Cook talks about how mental health is affecting a bunch of people around the world today. Cook also talks about how he tackles stress of being the CEO of Apple by meditation and being out in nature. Tim Cook doesn’t want social media apps which inspire endless scrolling to affect people and create mental health issues as well as surround them with negativity, that’s why he’s focused on helping people stop this addiction.

Today Apple released the new firmware update 4A400 for the AirPods 2, AirPods Pro, and AirPods Max. There’s also a new firmware, 4A394, for the Beats Solo Pro, PowerBeats Pro, and PowerBeats 4. The last firmware update for AirPods was 3E751 for the AirPods 2 and AirPods Pro and 3E756 for the AirPods Max. The new firmware has a variety of features, like allowing you to track your AirPods from the Find My App. The tracking process works very similar to how AirTags work. You hold up your phone and it will direct you to the precise location of where you left your AirPods by coming into contact with other Apple products. The new firmware also gives AirPods a new Conversation Boost feature. This feature is designed to allow people who have trouble hearing hear better by having the microphones on the AirPods increase the volume of a person who is talking in front of you. This makes it easier for people to hear and understand what is being said to them by other people who are talking to them. Other than these features, there isn’t any other feature we know about. Apple didn’t release any notes about the new firmware so we have to check it out for ourselves.

Apple is planning to launch the new M1X MacBook Pro sometime this month according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. This new MacBook model has been rumored to launch for a while now.

There will also be MagSafe on the MacBook Pro which will replace USB C for charging. The new M1X chip will be more powerful than the M1 chip and it will be more faster. There are also rumors of the chip having more GPU cores along with more CPU cores. The M1X chip will be able to handle more graphics oriented tasks. Previous rumors suggested that the next Apple event will be on Tuesday October 12th and if this is true, then we should be recieving invites tomorrow.

Image: Macrumors A new image shared by Macrumors gives us a first look at the new Apple Watch Series 7. It shows the new design along with the new larger user interface. There’s also an image of it with the new keyboard. The image let’s us see the new curved display with the smaller bezels. We can see the new user interface because of the larger screen. Everything looks really well on the new Apple Watch Series 7 model. The Apple Watch Series 7 will be available for pre order this Friday and you can will start shipping on October 15.

The Apple Watch Series 7 is finally going to hit stores on October 15. You can pre order them this Friday October 8th at 5 a.m. PDT. The Apple Watch Series 7 was unveiled at the Apple September event but Apple didn’t gives us a date for when to expect the new models. They just said “Available Later this Fall. The Apple Watch Series 7 has a new display with smaller bezels and more curves on the edges. They also come in two sizes including the 41mm and 45mm. Rumors for the Apple Watch Series 7 suggested a more boxy edge design like the new iPhone models, but it didn’t happen. Besides the changes to the design, Apple also added a few new features like the new larger watch faces along with a larger UI. There’s also a keyboard now which allows you to text directly from the watch without having to draw out the letters. You can pre order the Apple Watch Series 7 on apple.com or get it in store on release day on October 15th.

Image: RendersbyIan According to a new report by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is planning to completely redesign the iPhone 14 lineup. The designs will be new for the entry level iPhones and the Pro model iPhones. The new design next year will also break Apple’s three year cycle of updating the iPhone with a new design. Jon Prosser before the Apple September event showed us images of what the iPhone 14 could possibly look like. He claims it looks a lot like the iPhone 4 with the glass on the front and back with a titanium band wrapping around it on the side. Even if these rumors are true, the iPhone 14 is still a year away from launch to a lot of things can change afterwards.

A new image shared on Twitter by DuanRui gives us a better understanding of how Apple plans to remove the plastic wrap from the iPhone 13 box. At the Apple September event, Apple said that they will ship iPhones in boxes without the plastic wrap from now on. But it was hard for us to understand how this will work. A lot of questions popped up like how can we differentiate between an opened and unopened iPhone box. Apple’s solution for this was to seal the box up on the ends with a paper type sticker that can be ripped off to open the iPhone box. This is just one of Apple’s ways of trying to save the environment. Last year with the iPhone 12 lineup, the iPhones had a Paper sticker on the screen protecting them while in the box. Apple claims that removing the plastic wrapping from the iPhone 13 box will make them avoid using 600 metric tons of plastic.

Image: Apple and RendersbyIan Apple leaker Jon Prosser gave us the first look of the new Apple Watch design back in May with the flat edges similar to the iPhone 12 lineup. This new design was later backed up by other leakers like Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman and Apple Analyst Ming Chi Kuo. 91mobiles even shared images of the leaked CAD files for the new Apple Watch Series 7 with the flat edge design. All the reliable leakers were agreeing on the new flat edge design for the Apple Watch Series 7 and it led many of us to believe it’s guaranteed to happen. Unfortunately we got nothing close to what the leaks suggested. Just a couple of weeks before the event, Apple ran into a ton of problems trying to mass produce the Apple Watch Series 7. According to Nikkei the new significant design change of the Apple Watch Series 7 caused these issues. A couple of days before the event, Apple analyst Ming Chi Kuo said Apple was able to come up with a solution to fix the mass production issues. Apparently that solution was to get rid of the new design entirely and use the old one from the Series 6. Apple had to create a new Apple Watch design very quickly. All the display panels for the initial Series 7 design were already made so Apple had to manufacture a larger display that will slightly be raised up to fit the new display panel. They also had to give the Apple Watch chassis more rounded edges so the display panel will fit. At the Apple Keynote, Apple didn’t mention the new chip on the Apple Watch Series 7 at all. This is because the chip inside the new Series 7 is the old S6 chip from the Series 6 just disguised as the S7 chip. The real S7 chip was rumored to be double sided and was only able to fit the chassis of the new design with flat edges so Apple wasn’t able to include that with the Series 7. This solution was made so fast that Apple didn’t even give the Apple Watch Series 7 a new model number. The image shown above shows the Apple Watch Series 7 models with the exact same model number as the Apple Watch Series 6 models. Also at the event, Apple didn’t mention when the Apple Watch Series 7 will exactly be available like all the other devices they unveiled at the event. They just said “Later this Fall”. This is because mass production of the Apple Watch Series 7 hasn’t even started yet and Apple has no idea when they can start rolling them out to customers. The Apple Watch always launched in stores alongside the iPhone so it’s very unlikely for Apple to just release the Apple Watch at a later date. To summarize, Apple had a lot of issues with manufacturing the initial design of the Apple Watch Series 7 so in order to fix these issues, their solution was to completely scrap the new design all together for the old design with a few modifications. This is why the Apple Watch Series 7 has almost little to no hardware features at all and mostly all of the new features are software related. It’s unclear if Apple will bring the new flat edge design to the Apple Watch Series 8 next year or if they will just stick to the current design of the Apple Watch Series 7 with the slimmer bezels.

Today Apple unveiled the long awaited iPad mini 6 with a fresh new design and a ton of new features. The iPad mini 6 comes in four colors which include purple, pink, space gray, and starlight. The iPad mini 6 has a new 8.3 inch display with no home button and it has Touch I embedded into the power button. The volume buttons are also on the top. You can now use the Apple Pencil 2 on the iPad mini 6 and charge it on the side. There’s also a new USB-C port like most of the iPad models in the lineup. The iPad mini has the A15 Bionic chip inside and has faster performance. It also has 5G capability which allows for faster download speeds and better connectivity. The iPad mini 6 has a new 12MP camera in the rear with True Tone flash. There’s also a front facing 12MP ultra wide camera with center stage. You can order the new iPad mini 6 today and it will be available next week.

The iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro max was unveiled today at the Apple September event with more features. The iPhone 13 has a new 120Hz OLED LTPO display with a smaller notch and comes in 4 colors including the new Sierra Blue color. The A15 Bionic chip allows for faster performance and the iPhone 13 Pro has better 5G connectivity which allows for 5G support in many areas that wasn’t possible before. The iPhone 13 Pro also has a better camera quality with 3x optical zoom with the telephoto lens. There are also updates to the ultra wide and wide lenses on the iPhone. There’s better low light for images. There’s a new macrophotography feature that allows for better Pro resolution video and better optical zoom. The iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max has better battery life with 1.5 hours more on the Pro and 2.5 hours more on the Pro Max. You can order the new iPhone 13 Pro for $999 and Pro Max for $1099 this Friday and it will be available next week.
