You must have noticed that Apple is one of the most-talked company right now even during this COVID-19 crisis and it is because of the fact that there are just too many products going to be released from the company this year. As far as the products we have seen so far from Apple, they have released the iPhone SE 2020 being the latest addition. Apart from that, we have seen a new Macbook Air with updated keyboard as well as upgraded to the Mac Mini and wheels for the Mac Pro.
However, if you thought that we now have only the iPhone 12 series to look forward then you are wrong because there is a lot more coming from the Cupertino-based company. According to a new report, it is now revealed that the company has been working on products such as a new 23-inch iMac which is Apple’s all-in-one desktop computer along with an 11-inch version of the iPad Air. Currently, the iPad Air comes in 10.5-inch variant so we are likely to see smaller bezels on the device like the iPad Pro 11-inch version.
Also, the 23-inch iMac is likely to come with reduced bezels as well because the current iMac comes with a 21.5-inch display. Also, these are said to be affordable products from Apple meaning that they will start at a lower price. There is also the report that “mass production will ramp up in the third quarter” for these products meaning that they will be launched during the fall event when the latest iPhones are usually announced.
Another major report, however, claims that new AirPods named as the AirPods 3 are coming really soon and they might be announced by next month or so. Now, keep in mind that these will not be the successors to AirPods Pro but rather the next generation AirPods after the AirPods 2. It is also said that the AirPods 3 will not noise cancellation as it is reserved for the AirPods Pro models.
Having said that, the report mentions that these AirPods 3 could look a lot similar to the AirPods Pro meaning that they might have the same silicone tips as we have seen on the Pro models. It is also certain that the AirPods 3 will be cheaper than the AirPods Pro which starts at $249 and we might see the AirPods 3 getting launched at $199 price tag. Some sources also report that while the original plan for AirPods 3 launch was to announce them in May, Apple might delay the release citing supply chain issues.
As for the next version of Apple AirPods Pro, MacRumors have been spotted saying that “Apple may have to defer the launch of its new AirPods Pro to the second half of 2020 or even 2021, according to sources at related suppliers,”. The publication adds that “Apple originally planned to unveil the new AirPods Pro in May 2020, but the schedule may be pushed back, as Apple has been unable to send staff to the production lines in Asia to inspect the status of the TWS earbuds due to the coronavirus outbreak,”
