Apple will hold a conference on October 27 to present new models to the whole world MacBook Pro and MacBook Air, according to sources close to the company. Although no one expected such an event during this month, considering that it had not been announced until now, Apple still intends to organize it.
Considering that almost a week separates us from the event, those from Apple should officially announce it during this day, otherwise there are quite small chances that it will take place, if it is not announced this week. Apart from MacBook Pro 2016 and MacBook Air 2016, no other products are expected, but Apple can always surprise us.
The Apple conference is going to take place in the Cupertino campus, or near it, because we are talking about an event of low importance. In this idea, we are probably talking about a duration of only one hour for the conference, the Apple company not having so many important things to announce about its Macs.
Apple presents MacBook Pro 2016 on October 27
For the MacBook Pro, we expect the implementation of an OLED screen above the keyboard and a USB-C port, the modification of the design to make it thinner and the implementation of more powerful hardware. Separately, Touch ID support would be implemented, and the MagSafe port would be excluded, Apple also reducing the weight of this laptop.
Regarding the MacBook Air 2016, we can only expect the inclusion of a USB-C port at the expense of others and an improvement in general performance. The Apple company also intends to give up the 11-inch model of the MacBook Air in order to keep the 12-inch MacBook on sale.
Although there are no rumors in this regard, Apple could also launch an updated version of the iMac, those from Cupertino preparing a slightly more powerful processor, but also AMD graphics cards with superior performances. Finally, there is the possibility that a new external Thunderbolt 5K screen will be launched, it will have a resolution of 5120 x 2880 pixels.
Having said that, we are waiting for Apple to officially announce the event and to see what the American company will reveal through the invitation for it.
