Rumors strongly point to the arrival of new products in October. Although we don’t know if we will finally have a special Apple event, we do know that within Cupertino the machinery is moving to present new products and bring them to market in a short period of time. On other occasions, October has always been a month dedicated to the iPad and it is very likely that we will see new generations of some of these models. That’s why some of these products that may be upgraded in the coming weeks are not recommended for your current purchase
Apple could launch new products in October
It is very likely that the main novelties of a possible event in October focus on iPad. It’s been a year now since we’ve heard from some models and this month could be the right one to launch the new generation. The arrival of Black Friday kicks off Christmas shopping for the month of December and this could trigger sales.
Rumors point to The 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro will be updated. Therefore, the purchase of the current generation is not recommended. The new generation will not bring design innovations but it is very likely that we will see the incorporation of the M2 chip, also introduced in the last generation of MacBook Air, which would improve performance and anticipate the arrival of Stage Manager in iPadOS 16.

If you are considering buying a 10.2-inch “low-cost” iPad, we also do not recommend it. Apple is also likely to introduce a new standard iPad with a new 10.5-inch screen. This new generation would retain Touch ID, like the current one, although some rumors also point to the permanent removal of the Home button, bringing the design of the Pro back to the standard model and incorporating Touch ID into the lock button. The introduction of USB-C as a charging and data transfer connector is also expected, like the rest of the models.
If we talk about mac, our recommendations, and those of the rest of the experts, is to postpone the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro purchases before the imminent renovation of these devices in October, with the incorporation of the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips. The renewal of the mac mini with the arrival also of the M2 and M2 Pro chip. And finally, we will also postpone the purchase of the Mac Pro who could receive M1 Ultra chip already introduced in Mac Studio.
