In all likelihood, we will only have to wait a few more weeks to see a whole collection of new Apple devices arrive. However, no information about them is official until the brand confirms these rumors during its traditional fall conference. The analysts therefore have a field day and each make their own predictions, the agreement of which continues to be refined as the event approaches.
ChezBloomberg, the specialist on the subject is called Mark Gurman. Considered relatively reliable by most of its peers,the American journalist had correctly guessed the arrival of the iPad Pro equipped with a mini-LED screen. His pedigree has since continued to grow, so much so that he now publishes his estimates every week. Here is a summary of the mid-August batch, which above all confirms other information published upstream without breaking new ground. At least when it comes to the technical characteristics of the different devices.
iPhone 2021
- as many have already announced, the mobile should be callediPhone 13although the minor nature of its update has caused some experts to lean towards the suffix12S
- same screen sizes: 5.4 inches for the mini edition versus 6.1″ for the classic model and the Pro or 6.7″ for the Pro Max
- more discreet notch, but still no punch or retractable camera
- enhanced photo capabilities and Portrait mode for videos
- A15 processor, of course faster than the current generation
- ProMotion display with 120Hz refresh rate
iPads
- presentation of the iPad mini 6, with narrower edges as on the latest tablets unveiled by Apple in 2020
- the ninth generation iPad would also be in the pipeline, more efficient and more compact
Third generation of AirPods
- in-ear format like on AirPods Pro
- smaller tails
Apple Watch Series 7
- revisited design, probably contrasting with most of the watches released to date by Apple
- change in screen technology
- Faster CPU
- additional content for the paid sports platform Fitness+ (not available in France at the moment)
Mac
According to Gurman, the new sixteen- and fourteen-inch MacBook Pros should go on sale as soon as the current large model turns two years old. See you in the last quarter of this year maximum, then. With of course an Apple Silicon chip under the hood.
Departures
More employees would leave the health, cloud and AI departments of the Apple brand. The explanations are confused, but it is likely that the return to the office following the advent of teleworking has a lot to do with it. Indeed,Apple executives are reportedly becoming increasingly vocal about vaccinating their teams against the coronavirus, even though the subject continues to be debated... This would also be a factor responsible for a lack of optimism among the latter, without us really knowing whether potential financial forecasts are also there. for something.
Among the high-ranking deserters, we can notably cite Emily Fox for artificial intelligence, or even Ruslan Meshenberg. The former Netflix company would have abandoned Cupertino for one of its major competitors in California and internationally, namely Alphabet.
