Everything Apple Still Has Coming in October

Apple unveiled three fresh home products today, but the October announcements are far from finished. The upcoming event on October 27, along with speculation around the iPhone Duo, is keeping us on edge. Here's what we're expecting to see launched or announced in October:

On October 16, pre-orders for the iPhone Duo will begin. Following that, the iPhone Duo will go live on October 23. Then, on October 27, we'll be treated to the launch of the OLED touchscreen MacBook Pro, the M6 14-inch MacBook Pro, the M6 iMac, and the OLED iPad mini. The updates for iOS 27.2, iPadOS 27.2, macOS 27.2, and other 27.2 updates are anticipated to roll out on or before October 30.

Additionally, in late October, Apple is rumored to introduce the HomePod mini 2 and Apple's iPhone Duo in more countries. Apple is also believed to be organizing content creator sessions in Los Angeles on October 27 and October 28, to showcase the new Macs and OLED iPad mini. The new Macs won't be shipped to customers until November, but with an announcement on October 27, pre-orders could start the same day and the launch could unfold as early as November 6.

The OLED MacBook Pro is the product to watch, as it's Apple's first touchscreen Mac and the first redesign of the MacBook Pro since 2021. The new MacBook Pro will be lighter than the current version and will utilize M5 Pro and M5 Max chips.
