2021 is an eventful year for Apple. The company has released many defined categories of products, including the M1-powered iPad Pro, the new iPad mini, the new MacBook Pro series, the iPhone 13 series, and more. It seems that 2022 will be even more exciting for Apple fans, because the Cupertino giant has several promising products under development, including the new Mac Pro, redesigned MacBook Air, VR headsets, etc. . According to reliable Apple Twitter Mark Gullman (via Bloomberg), Apple is developing some new Mac Pro models equipped with the new M1 Pro and M1 Max chips, which made their debut in the MacBook Pro product line last year. The lineup includes a smaller Mac Pro with up to 40 CPU cores and 128 GPU cores, a large-screen iMac Pro and a new Mac mini. Apple is said to complete the transition from Intel to its own silicone as early as June.
Next, the report talked about “the largest MacBook Air redesign in product history”, the updated entry-level MacBook Pro and the redesigned iPad Pro that supports wireless charging. Previous reports said that the 2022 MacBook Air will be equipped with a white keyboard, more ports, and provide a variety of color options similar to the M1-driven iMac.
In terms of smartphones, Gulman believes that Apple will launch the 5G version of the iPhone SE in the first half of this year, and the new iPhone 14 series will be available in the fall as usual. At the same time, Apple Watch Series 8, the new Watch SE, and a robust version for extreme sports enthusiasts are also under development. Last year’s Apple Watch Series 7 seemed a bit mediocre in terms of design and features, so it will be interesting to see what Apple has prepared for us in terms of smart watches this year.
In other respects, Gullman said that Apple plans to launch a new external display at about half the price of the current Pro Display XDR.
Finally, the report pointed out that Apple may also launch its first virtual reality headset code-named N301 this year. Apple was originally scheduled to launch in 2020, but it was postponed to WWDC 2021-this also did not happen. According to reports, the company’s goal is now WWDC 2022 to finally unveil the rumored VR headset. It is said that this headset also supports some AR functions and runs on rOS code-named Okay
