Early this morning, at 2:00 on March 9, Apple will hold a “Peek Performance” conference to announce their new products for the first quarter of 2022. The time of the Apple conference is getting closer and closer. Basically, what will be released at the conference, there is almost a general idea, and in this article, I will integrate the rumors with you, and count the key predictions of the N conferences with you!
001: 3rd Generation iPhone SE (2022)
To be honest, this is one of the items that I am looking forward to at the press conference. After the second generation is updated in 2020, I believe that after two years, the third generation will come again. It is rumored that it may be equipped with an A15 Bionic processor and will support 5G. , but the mobile phone design is similar to the iPhone SE, which is the same as the iPhone 8. Of course, there are other rumors about using the iPhone 13 mini. If it is true, I will be happy. However, if the iPhone SE 3 is the same as the previous generation, I would expect Apple to keep the second generation, but it sold well. In fact, some people who broke the news before estimated that Apple may sell it for about HK$2000. , targeting developing markets such as India. If so, the old generation seems to be able to get in a few times.
002: Upgraded iPad Air
The iPad Air has been redesigned in 2020, becoming a style similar to the iPad Pro, with thin bezels, Apple Pencil 2 support, USB-C support, and a Touch ID power button. There are rumors that Apple may update the iPad Air series with an A15 processor and a 5G option, but I believe the design will not change much.
003: Mac mini
One of the highlights of this conference should be the Mac mini. It is rumored that the new Mac mini will be equipped with the M1 Pro / M1 Max processor, that is, the new generation of MacBook Pro uses a tight-grained processor to replace the current M1 processor Mac mini , which means that the GPU performance will be greatly improved regardless of whether the performance is fixed. The new Mac mini may be thinner in appearance, and is expected to be equipped with four Thunderbolt, two USB Type-A, HDMI slots, and more.
004: M2 processor MacBook Air / 13-inch MacBook Pro
One of the most rumored rumors is Apple’s new-generation M2 processor, and it may be announced at this conference to announce the MacBook Air using the M2 processor, but the M2 processor is second to none. generation, but it is rumored that M2 processor performance is not stronger than M1 Pro / M1 Max. In addition, rumors also indicate that the new MacBook Air may be equipped with a better screen and a better lens. As for whether MacBook Pro will use M2, because MacBook Pro 14 / 16-inch upgrade to M1 Pro / M1 Max is only a matter of time before, so I believe that there may not be an update at this conference, but there are It is rumored that the existing 13-inch MacBook Pro with Touch Bar design will be upgraded to the M2 processor. If it is true, what should I expect?
005: Mac Studio / Studio Display
The day before the Apple conference, some foreign media reported that Apple would release a new product, called Mac Studio. The positioning is estimated to be between the Mac mini and the Mac Pro. It looks like a thicker version of the Mac mini. It should be a high-end Mac mini, but it can also be described as a smaller Mac Pro. As for specifications, it is rumored that the higher-performance M1 Pro / M1 Max processors will be used. In addition, it is rumored that Apple will also release a studio called Studio Display, which will have a 27-inch 5K resolution. Interestingly, though, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman said he would run iOS and use an A-series processor. It’s weird to use iOS, and it seems to be a lot of fake news, but if Apple really comes out with this kind of iOS in the end, I’ll expect him to explain what the next solution is to do, and what practical use it has.
