Gurman made these claims in his 'Power On' newsletter, while also stating that the fall is going to be very busy in terms of Apple tree product news. And that makes sense, considering September is typically when Apple announces its new lineup of iPhones.

Rumor is that the iPhone 13 launch result volition have identify in the third week of September, alongside the Apple Sentinel 7, an pedagogy-focussed entry-level iPad, and potentially the so-called AirPods 3. Though whether this result volition as well see the launch of new MacBook Pros, including the rumored MacBook Pro 16-inch 2021, is another matter.

Last year, Apple had multiple events during the Fall, and kept the iPhone and Mac announcements firmly separate. The launch of the Apple M1 chip, aslope refreshed versions of the MacBook Air, Mac Mini, and MacBook Pro M1 happened roughly a month after the big iPhone 12 launch outcome.

Apple had a very successful Q4 in 2020, and it'southward logical that it may want to replicate that success with a like release schedule in 2021. Of class, none of this is confirmed, and Apple is nothing if non unpredictable when non-iPhone product launches are concerned.

Regardless of the timing with the new MacBook Pros, we're expecting to see a 14-inch model, likely replacing the current 13-inch laptop, as well every bit a redesigned xvi-inch car with a boosted selection of ports, rather than a quartet of USB-C sockets.

These MacBook Pros are tipped to run what's expected to exist the Apple M2 chip or M1X scrap, the follow upwardly to the powerful M1 scrap. The return of the SD carte reader and the classic MacBook Pro version of MagSafe are also rumored to be in the cards.
