Additionally, you can also get an entry-level 14-inch MacBook Pro.
Also, the tech giant could bring a fresh model of Mac Mini with M4 Pro and M4 variants. You can also expect an iMac with the M4 processor. The Mac Mini could get a size just like the Apple TV. These updates have the potential to boost Apple’s existing laptop and desktop lineup.
Other updates

You can also get a new MacBook Pro model which could get 16GB of RAM for the first time. Also, it can include three Thunderbolt 4 ports, which is an update from the three ports on the earlier M3 model.The updated MacBook Pro could also have a 10-core GPU and 10-core CPU. This is an upgrade from the existing M3 chip’s 8-core CPU design.
In other news, Apple also plans to bring a business Id feature to help you identify the true ID of any business caller. This feature is just like the Truecaller app. Basically, with this feature you can see the original ID of any caller. Currently, the feature is in the testing phase and will roll out to all by next year. Apple confirmed this announcement in a blog post. It said that next year businesses will be able to differentiate between potential customers and spam callers.
