Apple will update most of its products in 2023 and release some exciting new devices.

Just Released

  • 14″ and 16″ MacBook Pro with M2 Pro or M2 Max chip.
  • Mac Mini with M2 or M2 Pro chip.
  • New full-size HomePod (Speaker with Siri voice control)
M2 Macbook Pro

New Products

After years of rumors and speculation, Apple are finally gearing up to release a Virtual Reality/Augmented Reality Headset this spring.

Expected features include:

  • 2 micro OLED 4K displays (one for each eye)
  • Biometric sensors for eye and face tracking.
  • Up to 15 cameras for environmental detection and other biometrics (body and hand movement, etc.).
  • Apple Silicon M2 Processor.
  • Spatial audio.
  • Discrete battery pack.
  • New Operating System called xrOS.

The predicted price is in the $3,000 range.

The key to success here is compelling software and right now, it doesn’t exist. Meta, Sony, and Microsoft currently produce VR goggles and they have completely failed to create games or Apps that interest most consumers. If Apple fails to resolve this dilemma, there’s a possibility the whole thing will end in tears.

Spring should also see the arrival of a 27-inch 5K external display with a mini-LED panel that supports a wider dynamic range than the current Apple Studio Display. Expect a price in the $2,500 to $3,500 range.
