as to what will actually be revealed at the \u2018Unleashed\u2019 event, with rumours suggesting that the MacBook Pro could be getting a redesign for both the 14 and 16-inch formats.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"\/\/www.macrumors.com\/2021\/10\/12\/apple-event-unleashed-october-18\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener noopener noreferrer\" noreferrer=\"\">MacRumours<\/a>, the new MacBook Pro designs feature thinner bezels, larger displays and higher resolutions, providing crisp images. Also, rumours have suggested that the previous model\u2019s M1 chip could be replaced with a faster M1X chip to speed things up and support up to 32GB of RAM.<\/p>\n<p>HDMI and SD card slots both return according to the rumour mill, and \u2013 design-wise \u2013 we can expect something that looks more like the older, pre-2016 MacBook shapes.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to stress that these are all unconfirmed rumours at this stage and should be taken with a pinch of salt. Thankfully we don\u2019t have to wait too long to find out what Apple has in store for us.<\/p>\n<p>The other rumour worth noting is the possible reveal of AirPods 3. This announcement would certainly make sense at this point in the product calendar, as AirPods always attract a lot of interest around the seasonal sales. In fact, they were the top-rated product for website traffic during Black Friday 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Many commentators expected the AirPods 3 to be unveiled during Apple\u2019s September event, so seeing them revealed now would not be a surprise. Some design leaks have surfaced along the way, suggesting the case of the AirPods 3 will be more like that of the AirPods Pro, and they are likely to pack tips like the AirPods Pro too. However, some rumours suggested they would lack the AirPods Pro\u2019s ANC, which would likely be a cost-saving measure.<\/p>\n<p>For more on AirPods \u2013 and how you can get a pair for less \u2013 take a look at our <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/black-friday\/black-friday-airpods-deals\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">Black Friday AirPods deals<\/a> page, or visit our rundown of the <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/technology-guides\/apple-airpods-vs-airpods-pro\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">AirPods vs AirPods Pro<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How to watch Apple\u2019s October event<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>You can tune in via Apple\u2019s website or on YouTube using the link below.
