The rumoured Apple M3 CPU is expected to take the front stage during the announcement. It is the main feature of these new Macs and other Apple products. Apple’s usage of the tagline “Scary Fast” implies some big performance gains that the M3 chip is likely to provide. Along with that a follow-up model for the 24-inch iMac is one of the most anticipated products at the event.
The previous 24-inch iMac was powered by an M1 CPU. It made a splash with its seven colour combinations and a 4.5K retina display with 500 nits of peak brightness. While the specifics of the new 24 iMac upgrades are yet kept under wraps, Apple’s drive to innovation ensures that it will be a compelling update for those looking for a powerful and visually vivid desktop experience.
Significant improvements are also planned for the MacBook Pro family. Users can expect a boost in the processing power with the new M3 chip powering these laptops. It is surely to make them appropriate for demanding jobs ranging from content creation to software development. The addition of the M3 chip continues Apple’s practice of improving the performance of the devices with each successive generation.
Note that the supply chain for certain products may suffer complexities. According to several reports, both iMac and MacBook Pro variants are currently in short supply and are experiencing shipment delays. The high-end MacBook Pro combinations and other iMac models and colours have had a severe supply issue. The “Scary Fast” event may not only demonstrate upgraded products but hopefully shall provide insight into Apple’s efforts to address supply concerns.
