Apple has enlisted three upcoming Macs with the Russian Eurasian Economic Commission, with the model numbers A2681, A2615, and A2686. The first is described as a portable computer, while the other two simply as computers. This means we could be looking at the redesigned MacBook Air, possibly the new M1 Pro/Max-powered Mac mini, and the anticipated Mac Pro.
Apple filed the upcoming iPhone SE+ 5G and
iPad Air with the EEC last month, and the general expectation is that Apple
will unveil both on March 8. The new-look MacBook Air could piggyback on the
same event. Rumor has it the Air will get an M2 processor, a new 13-inch
display, and will conform to the recent design, established by the MacBook Pro
14 and 16.
We could also see the redesigned Mac mini
with an M1 Pro (possibly with M1 Max as well) in March. Apple will most
certainly keep the uber-powerful Mac Pro for its WWDC conference in the fall. That
cmputer could arrive with a higher-specced M1 Pro and M1 Max chip than any
Apple computer we've seen.
