Apple’s ‘Pro and Tell’ Event: Everything Announced So Far This Week
A new iPad Mini and possible upgrades to the MacBook Pro and iMac are coming. Here’s what we’re anticipating in another big week for Apple.
Apple's "Pro and Tell" event week kicked off on Monday with the unveiling of the new iPad Mini. This device, available for preorder on Wednesday, will launch on November 6. It boasts an 8.5-inch OLED screen, IP67 water and dust resistance, an Apple A20 processor, a repositioned front-facing camera, Acoustic Display through-screen speakers, and is thinner and lighter than its predecessor.
Priced starting at $699 for 128GB, $799 for 256GB, and $999 for 512GB storage, the new mini tablet is a marked improvement over its last iteration.
The event is also anticipated to bring updates to the iMac and MacBook Pro lineups. Rumors suggest a refreshed iMac could be unveiled on Tuesday, potentially with an M6 chip, similar to the Mac Mini, which was last updated in 2024. Several updates for the MacBook Pro are also expected, including an OLED touchscreen version. While the 16-inch model may not receive the M6 Pro/Max chip, the 14-inch variant is likely to receive this upgrade.
These anticipated MacBook Pro updates could be announced early Tuesday morning, according to CNET Managing Editor Josh Goldman.
The iPhone Duo, launched last week, will be subjected to an extensive folding test during the event, following its debut. The new HomePod Mini 2, Apple HomeView, Apple TV 4K, and Apple Home Collection products will be available starting December 1. The HomePod Mini 2 is set to launch on Friday, while the other products will be released on November 13.
