Two Apple events in two months may be the end of 2021 But it looks like we won't have to wait several months for new Apple products to be announced
Mark Gurman, a well-connected Bloomberg reporter, claims in the latest issue of his newsletter, Power On, that "we don't expect a third event this year or any other major announcement"
"There is nothing substantial left on the roadmap that will be ready for 2021" Instead, look for a larger Apple Silicon iMac, a new Mac mini, a new iPhone SE, and a new iPad Pro after 2022 starts"
Very good, but when will that be, according to LeaksApplePro, we are looking at March
Unlike the September event that Apple has held like clockwork to unveil a new iPhone every year since 2012 (one-time pandemic delays aside), a spring reveal is less set in stone The company last held a March event in 2019, when it announced services such as Apple News Plus, Apple Arcade, and the introduction of Apple Card
However, if you've been following the form book here, it's worth noting that another March reveal - a 2016 "Let us loop you in" event - saw the announcement of the first iPhone SE, one of the items said to be refreshed this time
Even though LeaksApplePro's tweet is without context, the leaker goes into more detail elsewhere: in an article contributed to iDropNews, the leaker describes the new and improved Mac mini, along with the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips, mini- LED technology, and a 120Hz ProMotion display, he writes that the long-awaited upgrade of the 27-inch iMac can be expected
The iPhone SE 3 is not mentioned, but analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes it will appear in early 2022, and a March event seems likely
However, a refreshed and colorful 2022 MacBook Air seems unlikely, with leakers claiming a release date "between Q2 and Q3"
As with all leaks, this should be taken with a pinch of salt And even if these claims were correct at the time of this writing, circumstances can change As a lesson learned, the usually accurate Jon Prosser was convinced that there would be an Apple event on March 23 this year and vowed to shave his eyebrows if he was wrong As it turned out, he did shave his eyebrows
