Apple had a big September, but it’s set to keep momentum going in October with several rumored product unveilings soon that we’ve waited a long time for.
The Mac is a long-time touchscreen holdout, but that’s finally set to change with a new MacBook Pro (or MacBook Ultra ) product expected to launch in October.
But they ramped up in 2024 when Mark Gurman offered an in-depth report on what’s commonly called the ‘HomePad. Apple’s next-gen MacBook Pro will introduce a brand new industrial design—the first such overhaul in five years. And in addition to touch support, it will boast an OLED display, Dynamic Island, and possibly a C2 cellular modem option. Rumors indicate we’ll finally get a new Apple TV 4K in October, headlined by a powerful A19 or A19 Pro chip and Siri AI support. Rumors of a HomePod with a display have been around for nearly as long as the HomePod’s existence. HomePad is a smart display with built-in speaker that will reportedly spearhead Apple’s renewed push into home products. It will have a new OS that resembles parts of iOS, tvOS, and watchOS, including a StandBy-like mode. Siri AI is expected to be central to the product, which will also feature a camera, customizable widgets, and built-in Apple apps like Photos, Notes, Music, Calendar, and more.
