Apple is rumored to launch a new MacBook Pro at its upcoming event. A leaked image of the box for the MacBook Pro was shared on Twitter by a well-known Apple leaker, ShrimpApplePro. The box features a picture of the laptop, and its design appears to be consistent with the current MacBook Pro chassis. However, the leaked image also shows a new wallpaper on the screen, which could indicate a refreshed model with the M3 chip.
While the authenticity of the leaked image is uncertain, some users on Twitter believe it to be genuine. It’s worth noting that the image was leaked on Weibo, a Chinese forum known for unreliable rumors. There is a possibility that the image has been manipulated to create a false impression of the new MacBook Pro.
An analysis of the leaked image raises questions about the design of the wallpaper. Some users argue that the glow effect around the lines looks slightly off. However, it cannot be completely ruled out that the leaked image is legitimate.
Industry analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who previously predicted a 2024 release for the MacBook Pro M3, has changed his prediction to an October reveal. This is believed to be a result of Apple’s desire to boost sales and make up for the disappointment of the M2 upgrade. Despite potential production challenges, Apple is reportedly pushing ahead with the release of the MacBook Pro M3, even if it means limited stock initially. A December launch is considered likely to ensure an adequate supply of units.
The October event is expected to unveil not only the new MacBook Pro but also a revamped iMac, possibly a 24-inch model. The tagline for the event, “Scary fast,” suggests that some Macs will be powered by the M3 chip. The event promises to be significant for Apple enthusiasts.
