The year 2021 was especially busy for Apple when it came to product launches. Over the last few months, we have seen the continuation of the transition to Apple Silicon with the launch of the 24-inch iMac and the new generation of MacBooks Pro, new iPhones, iPads, AirPods and even a completely new product for the company : the AirTag.
It is not an exaggeration to say that this sequence of news in recent months has considerably increased the expectations of Apple customers for what the company will launch in 2022 ? which is now just a few days away.
In any case, there is no shortage of rumors about possible releases scheduled for next year.
Let's meet them?
New Macs and ?M2? chip
Although rumors are still uncertain whether the new Notebook will be called MacBook Air or just MacBook, it is expected that the company will present the new generation next year of your laptopinput, which should feature a design inspired by the visual identity of the 24? iMac M1.
The MacBook Air would count, as would the all-in-one< /span>, with white borders on the front and several vibrant color options to choose from. Furthermore, like the new MacBooks Pro, the new device would also adopt a notch as a way to increase the usable area of ??your display, probably going from the current 13? to a 14? screen.
However, the main novelty will be the chip that will equip the new machine, the supposed ?M2?. According to rumors, the new generation of chip that will equip Apple computers should have the same number of cores as the M1, but with significant performance gains compared to what we currently have.
Apple also appears to be working on a new design for the popular Mac mini, which should gain an even more compact body than the one seen in the current generation, in addition to possible new configurations with the powerful M1 Pro/Max chips, now exclusive to Apple's professional notebooks.
The 27? iMac, which is currently one of the few computer options in Apple's product line that still has Intel chips in its guts, should also undergo a redesign. The desktop will possibly have a similar look to the 24? iMac, but with a Mini-LED screen with support for ProMotion technology (120Hz). This new model may be called the iMac Pro, and will also have new configurations equipped with the M1 Pro/Max chips.
Finally, if Apple manages to meet its goal of switching all Macs to its own chips by the end of 2022, another one that should gain a new generation this coming year It's the Mac Pro.
New iPads [Pro] and 15? model
In 2021, the iPad Pro received a substantial update by being powered by the powerful M1 chip and gaining a Mini-LED screen (in the larger model), which gave it much higher contrast and brightness levels than the previous generation.
This year, Apple is expected to also bring the technology to the most compact 11? model - by updating the range with a new design - which should feature with a glass back similar to that of iPhones. This change allows wireless charging to arrive on iPads, which currently only rely on wired connections to be powered.
Additionally, according to Mark Gurman, Apple also appears to be working on a 15? version of its professional iPad, which could be launched alongside a new innovative generation of the product.
Finally, a model that was not updated in 2021 and will probably be updated in 2022 is the iPad Air ? which, by the way, is now even outdated in some aspects in terms of compared to its smaller brother, the iPad mini.
?iPhone 14? and the end of the mini model
According to the leaker Jon Prosser, the ?iPhone 14? will feature a design largely inspired by the late iPhone 4, with sides flat made of titanium and two glass plates closing the whole. Furthermore, the smartphone may abandon the controversial notch and adopt a front camera like hole-punch, like competing devices in the Android world.
It is also expected that the range of iPhones will no longer include the mini model, a compact version of the cell phone originally launched in 2020, with the iPhone 12. This way , both the ?common? Apple smartphone models and the Pro would only come in two size options: 6.1? and 6.7?.
In parallel to this, who knows, perhaps in the first half of 2022, we should see the arrival of a new iPhone SE ? possibly with the same current design, but incorporating the A15 Bionic chip and 5G connectivity.
New AirPods Pro
AirPods got an upgrade in October, with the launch of the third generation of the world's most popular fully wireless headphones. And now, it seems to be the Pro version's turn to get an update.
According to rumors, the AirPods Pro are expected to be updated in 2022 with a new design and a new focus on health, while new fitness sensors could be added to the headphones.
?2nd generation Apple Watch Series 8? and SE
Finally, the Apple Watch could gain not just one, but three new models in 2022, including a more ?robust? version for more intense physical activities. In addition, we should also see an update to the popular Apple Watch SE, which has remained untouched since 2020; and, of course, an ?Apple Watch Series 8?, which will possibly gain new body temperature sensors.
Despite the news, none of the steps that Apple may take in 2022 are yet official, and the work carried out in previous years must be considered a tremendous success!
