As expected, the Cupertino company presented this year's product line of its iPhones, two new iPads, as well as the new Apple Watch Series 7. However, many users and experts expected a little more from this autumn's Keynote. What news, which was not presented in the end, was talked about in connection with the recently held conference?

AirPods 3

Although many users and experts - including the well-known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo - expected this year's autumn Keynote to also introduce the third-generation wireless AirPods headphones, this did not happen in the end. The third-generation AirPods were supposed to be more similar to the AirPods Pro headphones in terms of design, but without the silicone plug. There has also been speculation about improved controls, with some sources even talking about health features.

New MacBook Pro

Apple usually does not have the habit of introducing new computers at its autumn Keynotes, but in connection with this year's keynote, there was talk of a possible introduction of a new MacBook Pro equipped with an Apple Silicon chip. The new MacBook Pros were to offer 14″ and 16″ display sizes, and were to be equipped, for example, with a MagSafe charging connector, or perhaps a memory card reader.

New Mac mini

According to available reports, it was also supposed to be equipped with an M1X processor, it was supposed to offer better performance, Mark Gurman from the Bloomberg agency made it known in August this year that this year's Mac mini should be equipped with four USB4 / Thunderbolt 3 ports, two USB-A ports, and that it should also have an Ethernet and HDMI port. Similar to the MacBook Pro, the Mac mini was also rumored to have a memory card reader.

AirPods Pro 2

According to some sources, Apple was also supposed to introduce the second-generation AirPods Pro wireless headphones at its autumn Keynote this year. It was supposed to boast a slightly changed design, a different control method, but also health and fitness functions along with a handful of new sensors. Interestingly, many analysts agreed that Apple should not increase the price of this model despite the improvements.
