Amid the uncertainties and fears of the COVID-19 outbreak, Apple maintains its optimistic stand. The Cupertino tech juggernaut is anticipated to launch its products this year including the entry-level iPhone SE 2 this month, and the flagship iPhone 12 series in Sept. A recent research note from a reputable Apple tipster reveals that Apple is also preparing to launch six new MacBook Pro models including the 14.1-inch MacBook Pro with interesting new feature.
Upcoming Apple Products With Mini-LED
The latest information comes from the research note of TFI Securities Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. It reveals that the Cupertino tech giant is gearing to launch not one but six Apple products that would feature the rumored mini-LED display. These products include the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, 10.2-inch iPad Pro, 7.9-inch iPad Mini, 27-inch iMac, 14.1-inch MacBook Pro, and the 16-inch MacBook Pro.
The 14.1-inch MacBook Pro is anticipated to replace the 13.3-inch MacBook model, similar to how Apple introduced the 16-inch model to replace the 15-inch MacBook Pro. Apart from these details, Kuo's research note also claims that the COVID-19 outbreak would not affect its supply of mini-LED. The Taiwan-based analyst earlier predicted that the 12.9-inch iPad Pro with mini-LED would launch sometime in the fall of 2020 while the 14.1-inch MacBook Pro might be announced at the end of 2020.
The recent note of the analyst mentions the 7.9-inch iPad mini. This is the first time that we hear details about the Apple product after it was refreshed last year with an Apple Pencil support and more powerful chips. Along with the alleged mini-LED display, the 7.9-inch iPad mini might this year feature a new set of upgraded specs and features.
Upcoming Apple Event
Several reports earlier claimed that the Cupertino tech giant might hold an event this month where it would launch its products. However, Apple fans should not expect that the event would be open to the public. The COVID-19 outbreak might threaten the safety of the attendees, and Apple might do the event online.
Among the Apple products anticipated to launch this month includes the affordable iPhone 9 or iPhone SE 2. iPad Pro fans are also expecting that Apple might launch a new model this month. While these details seem interesting, these are not official. In this case, we recommend taking this information with a considerable measure of skepticism. We will keep you posted on the latest news and update about Apple products as soon as we stumble upon interesting information.
