Apple is reportedly planning to unveil new products on October 13, potentially including its long-rumored smart home hub, a new generation of the Home Pod mini, and a new Siri AI-powered Apple TV 4K, according to a recent Bloomberg report. However, the company has not confirmed whether it will hold an event to announce these products. Apple's October event history since 2010 is less predictable than its September events, with only 10 October events held so far. The most recent was the Halloween-themed "Scary Fast" event on October 30, 2023. Historically, Apple has announced October events anywhere from a few days to over a week in advance. If the October 13 date holds true, Apple could announce the event as early as October 5, but likely no later than October 7. Beyond the rumored October products, Apple is also expected to announce an OLED i Pad mini, new i Macs, and several new Mac Book Pros, including touchscreen models, in 2026. The company may unveil these at the same event, a separate event, or through press releases. In October 2024, Apple announced new Macs through press releases over three consecutive days, while in October 2025, it introduced the M5 chip alongside new i Pad Pro, Mac Book Pro, and Apple Vision Pro models without holding an event. Apple has only held a November event once, in 2020, with its "One More Thing" event that introduced the first Macs powered by the M1 Apple silicon chip.

Which new products do you think Apple will announce at the rumored October event? Let us know in the comments.
