Rumors suggest that Apple will showcase a range of Mac computers powered by its latest M4 chips. Anticipated products include a budget-friendly 14-inch MacBook Pro, alongside upgraded 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros that will feature the more potent M4 processors. Additionally, there’s chatter about a new iteration of the all-in-one iMac incorporating the M4 chip.

One of the more intriguing rumors revolves around a revamped Mac mini. Unverified sources suggest this model might become the most compact Mac ever, potentially resembling the size of the Apple TV set-top box.

The expected refresh of the Mac mini is said to come in two variants: one equipped with a standard M4 chip and another featuring a more robust version of the same chip, designed to accommodate extra RAM and enhanced GPU performance.

This month, Apple already rolled out a fresh version of the iPad mini tablet. Next week, however, appears focused solely on introducing the new Mac lineup.
