Where are the new Macs?

Yesterday we talked about the next generation of Apple Watch. Today we mention a new device which is the "Mac" personal computer. Usually Apple releases at least one Mac update every year. And we are close to entering the last quarter of 2016 and we have only seen a semi-update of the new MacBook, which came to add the pink color and the battery works for 10 hours. Strong rumors speak that the iPhone 7 conference next month will also include the update of Mac devices. So what does Apple have in store for us?

A year and a half ago, specifically 17 months ago, the MacBook family was added to the Apple masterpiece, which is the new MacBook. At the same conference, the 13-inch MacBook Pro was updated to support Force Touch, and two MacBook Air devices were also updated, and two months later, the MacBook Pro 15 inch was updated for the Force Touch feature. Also, her new iMac family with a 5K display, worth $ 1999. Many did not buy any Mac device waiting for the Apple update that they expected in March, as Apple usually does, then they waited for June expecting that Apple will update them at the WWDC conference, but we did not find any of this, so where are you Apple about Mac?

This is our analysis of what we expect according to the leaked news and rumors, and it is not certain that all this will happen from Apple.

MacBook devices

Apple provides 3 categories of its Macbook computers, the MacBook Pro, which comes in 13 and 15 inches, MacBook Air in 11 and 13 inches, and the new MacBook 12 inches. In general, Apple pays special attention to the new MacBook, a device that has taken the place of the MacBook Air as "the thinnest MacBook". Therefore, if Apple provides the new MacBook at a lower price, this will lead to a loss for the MacBook Air if you do not update the device completely.

According to many analysts, this gives us two possibilities for the MacBook family, that Apple will add another size for the new MacBook, which is 14 inches, and update the MacBook Air to support Force Touch with updating the processor and adding colors to it. Also, many expect that the MacBook Pro will be updated to support a control screen above the keyboard, which was designed by an Apple fan.

So now we have 3 expectations about the MacBook family:

• MacBook Pro: Control screen above the control panel.
• MacBook AirForce Touch: Update processor and add the feature of Force Touch.
• MacBook: Add a new size of 14 inches.

Mac desktops

Uber also provides 3 categories of desktop devices, the Mac Pro, Mac Mini and iMac, and the latest update made by Apple for office devices was for the iMac, in which Apple introduced Retina technology for both its 21.5 and 27-inch screens in October of 2015.

The Mac Mini has not received any update since 2014 and is still powered by Intel Haswell processors, which is an old processor that Apple uses two generations of processors after. Generally, Apple updates the Mac Mini every two years, in 2012 it updated it and again in 2014, so it may be in the list of Apple updates.

The new Mac Pro was announced at WWDC 2013 for the first time, and after that, Apple did not talk about it at all, as the device is very expensive and not intended for the average user, as it was made only for a certain class of designers and programmers who need devices that work with high efficiency, the price of the device starts from 2999 dollars, which makes it Its refurbishment cycle is longer than other devices, so we place a simple possibility to update Mac Pro, which is the processor update because it is also running on Intel Haswell processor and is expected to upgrade to Xeon Broadwell processor.

This year we have witnessed a decline in Apple's sales of all its devices, in the iPhone its sales have decreased significantly, and the iPad has continued to decline for more than two years now, and the Mac devices are also beginning to witness a decrease in sales and revenues, in the results of the second quarter of Apple's fiscal year (October - November - December) always witnesses an increase in its sales and revenues because of the conference date is always in March and this is what many expected. And whoever wants to acquire a Mac, wait for the WWDC conference and this is what the rumors said, but Apple did not announce any updates, and after several days it will be a conference IPhone, so we do not expect Apple to announce new Mac devices, but some rumors say that Apple will launch the new devices in October, either at a conference or without.
