There are many possibilities in terms of new products waiting for an update. Apple could release a new Mac, a new iPad, a new HomePod, AirPods Lite, and even second-generation AirPods Max.
But a recent leak in a Canadian database could have revealed which device Apple will introduce today.
Apple has registered a new MacBook Pro model in a Canadian database
A Canadian “radio equipment” database very recently recorded a model of MacBook Pro with Wi-Fi 6E support with certificate number 579C-A2779, as reported by a user named Wade Penner in Twitter.

“A new Apple MacBook Pro model A2779 has been listed in the Radio Equipment Database of Canada. Approved January 11, 2023. Likely the new M2 Max or M2 Pro. Device will be supported by Wi-Fi band 6E / 6GHz.”
Current MacBook Pro models support the Wi-Fi 6 standard, which is limited to 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. This would mean that the device registered in the database will be new. This news follows another similar leak in the Steam database about a month ago.
Therefore, everything seems to indicate that Apple will introduce two new MacBook Pro models with 14-inch and 16-inch screens. These two notebooks should include M2 Pro and M2 Max chips. The last time Apple refreshed its MacBook Pros was in October 2021.
It would also be possible for Apple to present a new MacBook Air with a 15-inch screen since its launch is scheduled for this year 2023, although it is less likely.
