BUZZ BEAT MEDIA

After much anticipation, Siri, the virtual assistant of the iOS, has finally revealed that Apple will be holding its first product launch of the year next week, specifically on the 20th of April.

Invites to the media have also been given out. It’s safe to say that many are gearing up for a lot of things, which include updates on much-beloved devices such as iPad Pros, iPad Minis, AirPods, and perhaps even the appearance of the rumored AirTags

The event will be livestreamed on Apple’s website, which is in line with the company’s decision to make its Worldwide Developers Conference an online-only event since 2020. It is apparent that fans have high expectations for the launch, especially with the following rumors regarding what’s to be expected on Apple’s latest products.

One of the most anticipated gadgets from the launch is a new iPad Pro. According to Bloomberg, the newest version from the lineup will be 12.9 inches, and will have a super-bright LED display. Based on the report, the company’s suppliers have encountered issues, with at least one mini-led maker causing a delay in production.

This update is said to improve the contrast ratio and brightness of the device. Fans are also hoping to see the new iPad model with a A14X chip and a M1-like performance.

Another update that many will expect to see is an iPad Mini with smaller bezels while having a wider display. The iOS 14.5 will also be an interesting update, as it is said to better aspects of the products with regard to privacy matters.

Rumored new devices are also being brought up, such as “AirTags”, which are trackers that can be placed on things like bags and other handy items. While Apple recently discontinued its iMac Pro line, fans are hoping for a newer version of Apple’s MacBook Pro and MacBook Air, but there is no certainty to such rumors so far. With many expectations circling around, Apple users are certainly looking forward to the launch.
