Apple
Not content with dominating the news cycle for a entire month, Apple’s at it again. The company sent out official invitations to its upcoming October 16th media event on Wednesday morning. The event kicks off at 10 AM next Thursday at Apple’s Cupertino campus.
Just last month Apple held a huge, action-packed media event where it announced the iPhone 6, 6 Plus, and the Apple Watch. Today’s invitation features the tagline “It’s been too long,” which seems to play on the fact that they just held an event. This one will likely be a smaller affair, however, since it’s being held at Apple headquarters.
Among other things, we’re expecting Apple to spend some more time detailing OS X Yosemite, which the company previewed at WWDC in June. We’re also expecting an array of new iPads, perhaps a larger 12.9-inch model aimed at the enterprise market, and a follow-up to last year’s ultra thin iPad Air. These iPads are expected to have Touch ID this time around, and will reportedly come in the same colors as the iPhone: space gray, silver, and gold. New MacBook Airs, also in these hues, have been rumored, but we probably won’t see them until later in 2015.
The other big thing we could see October 16th is a 27-inch retina iMac. Apple last refreshed the iMac in 2012. We could also get a spec bump on the MacBook Air, Retina MacBook Pros, Mac mini, and new Cinema Displays.
Whatever gets unveiled, we’ll be there October 16th to share the news live.
