Apple is holding its second launch event this fall on Tuesday in Brooklyn, New York.
In September, Apple debuted new iPhones and Apple Watch models. So most analysts and observers expect this event to focus on high-end iPad Pro models, faster MacBooks and Mac desktops, and potentially even a surprise.
Thanks to a series of reports, we have a good idea what Apple could launch on Tuesday.
Here’s what we’re expecting:

These updated iPads could have Apple’s Face ID sensor, a USB-C charging port, and a screen that goes from edge-to-edge. You can also expect the new iPads to have powerful A-series chips with custom graphics processors. Bloomberg reports that its look will include “squared-off sides” like the iPhone 5S.
The current version of the iPad Pro starts at $649.

It currently starts at $499, but the price could go up, considering rumors say that Apple’s going to add a lot of pro-focused power to the mini desktop.

AirPower is different from other wireless charging pads because it can charge multiple devices at once — like an iPhone, Apple Watch, and even AirPods, if Apple releases a wireless charging case.

Adobe announced a full version of Photoshop for iPads last month, and each invite to the event came with a unique illustrated Apple logo, suggesting a focus on drawing as well.

The biggest question is if Apple will announce an external monitor for its desktop computers. After all, users would need a screen for the Mac Mini, which doesn’t come with one.
Apple said last year it was working on a “modular” high-end Mac Pro, which would come with a high-resolution screen, potentially with a 5k or 8k resolution. Apple could preview its new most-expensive desktop, which would also give it a chance to announce its new pro display — and some Apple observers are even speculating that a USB-C monitor could work with the new iPad Pros.
