Apple is planning to invite content creators to a two-day product showcase in Los Angeles on October 27 and October 28, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. Unlike a traditional Apple Event, there will be no live-streamed video on either day. Gurman said these will be "experiences" for content creators, similar to the one Apple is holding in New York this Tuesday, October 13.
The following four products are expected to be announced on or around Tuesday, October 27: 14" and 16" MacBook Pro models with OLED displays, a major redesign featuring touchscreen support, M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, a Dynamic Island, a "significantly lighter" design, and potentially Apple's C1X or C2 modem for built-in cellular connectivity. A 24" iMac is expected with an M6 chip and new color options, alongside a 14" MacBook Pro with an M6 chip. The iPad mini 8 is also expected, with an OLED display, A20 Pro chip, landscape front camera, redesigned speaker system, and water-resistant design.
Apple previously announced a Mac Studio with 512GB of RAM due in "late October," so it may arrive around the same time. Gurman says this will likely be Apple's final major launch of 2026.
On Tuesday, October 13, Apple is also expected to unveil an all-new HomeView smart home hub, a HomePod mini 2, and an updated Apple TV 4K.
