Apple’s WWDC 23 will start on June 5 as an on-site event at Apple Park. The company professes this World Wide Developer Conference will be the “biggest and most exciting yet.” We expect the following 4 things from WWDC 2023.
1. iOS 17 and other Apple software announcements
Apple could unveil new operating systems for its leading products like iOS 17, iPadOS 17, tvOS 17, watchOS 10, and macOS 14. Recently, Mark Gurman from Bloomberg claimed this iOS release will be bringing the "most requested features" by users. Due to pressure from regulatory bodies in Europe, the company could allow for sideloading and alternate app stores on the iPhone software.
2. Apple AR/VR headset
Since the WWDC announcement image appears to look like an eye, we suspect the event could be where the long-awaited Apple augmented reality or virtual reality glasses/headset debuts. This seems more possible as Apple reportedly demoed the device to its top 100 executives the other week.
3. Apple Mac Pro with M-series chip
As its 2-year Intel to in-house silicon transition deadline is overdue, we think we could see more of its Mac hardware getting the Apple Silicon. One contender in the queue could be the Apple Mac Pro. It was last updated in 2019. So, we surmise it’s time.
4. 15-inch MacBook Air
The 15-inch MacBook laptop may not be even named an Air but whatever the name it gets, it is rumoured to ship with a 30W adapter. Besides that, the details are scant.
