Tomorrow’s iPhone 16 launch won’t be the final Apple event of the year, as the company plans to debut some M4 Macs and new iPads with another showing in October, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman in today’s Power On newsletter.

Apple could be announcing a new iPad Mini for the first time since 2021 in October, as well as a Mac Mini with an M4 chip, packed into a box about the size of an Apple TV, making that the first real redesign of the diminutive desktop in over a decade. So it’s about time for both! The event will include new versions of the iMac and MacBook Pro, both with M4 chips, as well, Gurman writes.

Between that and updated iPhones, Apple Watches, and AirPods expected at tomorrow’s “Glowtime” event, only a handful of Apple products haven’t been touched this year. That includes the AirPods Max, which Gurman wrote Friday are still well-stocked at Apple retail, making an update unlikely, at least for tomorrow. Guess they’ll be helping to keep the Lightning port dream alive just a little longer.
