Apple May Not Hold Event in October

Bloomberg insider Mark Gurman in his latest weekly Power On newsletter has reported that Apple is working on new iPad Pro, Mac and Apple TV models. He believes that some of these products will be released in October, however the company is unlikely to hold an event this month.

Gurman stated that "the big iPhone 14 unveiling last month was probably it for Apple in 2022 in terms of major presentations," suggesting that Apple would announce the new iPad, Mac and Apple TV products in press releases, media briefings and updates to the Apple online shop.

Gurman previously said that the company would introduce new 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro, 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro, and Mac mini with M2 series chips are "highly likely to launch" by the end of 2022. Meanwhile, an updated Apple TV with an A14 chip and 4GB more RAM is "getting closer and could potentially launch this year."

Gurman also revealed that Apple has been testing Touch ID under the screen in recent years, but he doesn't see the possibility of it returning to the iPhone 15 or other flagship  models in the foreseeable future. Speaking of the new iPhone SE, he said a model with Touch ID on the side is possible, but he hasn't "heard anything about that actually being in the pipeline."
