Here’s a look at what Apple may reveal at its upcoming media event Apple Event.

The “peak performance” preview for tomorrow, March 8, is now only hours away from the next major Apple event.

New iPhone SE and iPad Air 5 models are anticipated, as well as one or more new Macs, the latter of which may use the rumoured Apple M2 processor.

A revamped iPad Pro 2022 or Mac mini 2022 might also be announced at the same time. It’s possible that Apple may also unveil a new colour for the iPhone 13, as well as new features for its most popular services.

The MacBook Pro 2022 might also be unveiled during the event. With an older design but better silicon, it’s projected to be a cheaper version of the current MacBook Pro line. If the rumours so far come to fulfilment, some may be dissatisfied.

Apple is holding an event today, and we’ve covered all you need to know about what’s expected.

It will be aired live on Apple’s website and YouTube. The Apple event will be streamed live on Apple’s website.

The iPhone SE 3 is expected to be unveiled during Apple’s March presentation, which will also include

If the iPhone SE 3 (or the iPhone SE Plus) is introduced in 2022, it might include two major advancements over the current model. We anticipate the iPhone SE 3 will include 5G connection, since many of the finest 5G phones cost less than $500 and even less than $400.

For the iPhone SE 3, the A15 Bionic processor from the iPhone 13 should be used. This would make the next low-cost iPhone speedier than the previous one. It might also assist to extend the battery life of the iPhone SE over time.

iPhone SE 3 rumours offer the same design as the iPhone 8, replete with Touch ID and a large forehead, for the third iteration. The new phone might use the iPhone XR’s chassis, but thus yet, only concept art depicts a device with a more streamlined appearance.

We haven’t heard anything about the iPhone SE 3’s cameras yet, but all indications are that Apple will remain with a single lens. If possible, we’d want a night mode and a better selfie camera on the phone. Interested in learning more? Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has disclosed the final iPhone SE colours and specifications ahead of the company’s event, which you can read about here.

According to recent rumours, Apple is expected to name this gadget the iPhone SE Plus 5G, which would retain the present design of the iPhone SE while boosting its specifications to incorporate 5G connection. Apple has yet to release a really revolutionary iPhone design.

Competition from Google’s inexpensive phones will be fierce when the iPhone SE 3 launches. Even while a comparison between the iPhone SE 3 and the Google Pixel 5a would be greatly anticipated, a more appropriate comparison may be the iPhone SE 3 vs. the Google Pixel 6a, given the latter phone is expected in May.

The iPad Air 5 will be unveiled during Apple’s March presentation.

We didn’t put the iPad Air 5 on a list of possible surprises at a Spring 2022 Apple event, but there are indications that the tablet might be on its way shortly.” According to the Eurasian Economic Commission, several Apple tablets that sound a lot like the iPad Air 5 have been given regulatory certification. A new iPad Air is notably mentioned in Bloomberg’s expected March event.

Apple’s A15 Bionic processor and 5G connection are expected to be included in this next iPad Air model. Furthermore, the tablet’s front camera might need some enhancements from Apple. OLED was previously said to be an option for the iPad Air 5, but more recently, experts have said that the tablet would remain OLED.

Event: Apple’s iMac Pro

When Apple released its 24-inch M1 version of the 21.5-inch iMac last spring, it marked the beginning of a new era for the desktop computer. Updates to the 27-inch model are long overdue.

When the big-screen iMac is refreshed in 2022, we should anticipate it to be renamed the iMac Pro, according to a reliable leaker (Dylandkt). However, the Pro designation hints that further enhancements are being kept under wraps. This should separate it from the 24-inch iMac.

The iMac Pro is expected to use the M1 Pro and M1 Max CPUs that are found in the new MacBook Pros, according to rumour. It may have HDMI, SD Card, USB-C, and maybe Face ID connectors available. Starting at or over $2,000 was Dylandkt’s estimate.

Alleged regulatory documentation for new Mac computers support the existence of a brand-new Mac. This year’s annual Spring event will most certainly see the introduction of brand-new Macs, since Apple has to submit new product releases with the government ahead of any announcements.

A new prediction from an expert, Ming-Chi Kuo, says that the speculated Mac Pro and the new iMac Pro won’t be released until 2023.

Apple’s March event will include an iPad Pro that will be released in 2022.

Even though we haven’t heard anything about the iPad, it does not rule out a spring redesign for the Pro model. At the latest spring event, Apple introduced the iPad Pro (2021).

The M1 Pro processor seen in the newest MacBook Pro laptops might power the iPad Pro 2022, while another theory claims that the next iPad will use the first 3-nanometer semiconductor ever made. Other than the possibility of improved performance and efficiency, we don’t know much about this brand-new microprocessor yet.

In addition to a bigger battery and wireless MagSafe charging made possible by an Apple logo magnet on the tablet, an iPad Pro 2022 rumour backs up some of these claims. For your consideration, we’ve picked together the most popular iPad Pro 2022 rumours to far. Time will tell whether they are accurate.

The Mac mini will be unveiled during the Apple March event.

There have been whispers about a new Mac mini with an M1X CPU and maybe a different design floating around. Whether this item will be shown out during the next Apple event is still up in the air.

According to iDrop News, Apple had previously intended to debut a new Mac mini with the impending MacBook Pros, but has now decided to postpone the introduction in order to allow the laptop to “shine,” according to an insider.

It’s claimed in the same report that the manufacture of a new Mac mini is ramping up, based on supply chain insider knowledge. A new Mac mini might be announced shortly, although no specific date has been set.

Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has now projected that the upgraded Mac mini would actually be released in 2022, although he did not provide any clue as to precisely when it will be released.

Apple’s March event: Mac Studio

Despite the fact that it’s very doubtful that Apple will reveal any new desktop Macs during Tuesday’s presentation, we’ve heard several reports that the company is working on two new desktop Macs that would lie between the Mac mini and Mac Pro (pictured).

An M1 Max chip and a more powerful M1 version are said to have been spotted by 9to5Mac, according to the most current speculations. Reputable Apple tipster Mark Gurman has before reported that Apple was creating an M1-powered ‘Half-sized Mac Pro.’

Even while we’re expecting for a surprise from Apple on Tuesday, the likelihood is that the reported products won’t come until later this year, assuming they’re true at all. Still, I’m keeping my fingers crossed.

What did Apple unveil at their most recent event?

iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro: The greatest iPhone series yet, the iPhone 13 range has a brighter display, longer battery life, and stronger cameras. Even the display on the iPhone 13 Pro is impressive.

Apple Watch 7: Compared to last year’s model, the Apple Watch 7 boasts a brighter screen and a curvier body.

As an incremental advance to the current iPad, the Pad 2021 is an excellent tablet with a brilliant screen, fluid performance and long battery life at an affordable price. It’s also solidly manufactured.

The iPad mini 6 2021 is the small-but-powerful iPad we’ve been looking for, with an incredibly compact, light design and a quick A15 Bionic CPU.

What’s next for Apple’s upcoming events?

Other rumoured goods include the AirPods Pro 2, which may be ready for a revamp. Apple Glasses, an Apple VR headset, and a mixed reality headgear are all possibilities in the near future. And it’s possible that an Apple Car will be released at some time in the future.

Apple CEO Tim Cook is expected to leave the company in 2025 or 2028 after “one more” major product launch, so at least one of these advancements might be years away.
