According to a newsletter by Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, Apple is expected to launch a new product in October. The tech-giant is also expected to launch its most-hyped product, iPhone 15 in September, according to the usual cycle. But the reports are also suggesting more interesting products this year from Apple. The company might also launch the all new iMac powered by M3 chipset by the end of the year.
It’s not clear if there will be any significant changes in the all new iMac. However, Gurman wrote in his last newsletter that this year we’ll only be seeing the M3 chip upgrade in the current 24-inch model and the new 34-inch will not be available until late 2024.
Although Gurman is not certain about his prediction, the last time Apple made changes in iMac was more than two years ago. So this time the company could really launch the M3 powered iMac.

It is also suggested by Gurman that Apple may update its 13-inch MacBooks i.e. the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, with the M3 chip. Talking about the iPad, he also suggests that a version of the iPad Pro could come next year with an OLED screen and the M3 chip. In the meantime, Apple is also working on a faster version of iPad air which aims to return the midrange iPad to a yearly update cycle.
Some time ago, Gurman suggested that the M3 powered iMacs and 13-inch Macbook air might arrive this year or next which will be the first to use the rumoured 3nm Apple Silicon chips. A supply chain analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo, had also stated that new M3 Pro/Max chips were expected in the first half of 2024.

Now we just have to wait for October to see if these rumours would be true because it seems a little odd for Apple to switch the iMac directly to their rumoured M3 chip instead of switching it to M2 chip.
