A prominent leaker has seemingly hinted that Apple will introduce a variety of color options for an updated iMac model at its "Spring Loaded" event, meanwhile, another pundit strongly points to it being an Apple Silicon launch.
Apple's forthcoming range of iPhone 12 silicone cases is now expected to include three more colors than the previously leaked four.
Apple goes far to make its devices seamless and attractive, but it wants to go further and create controls that are invisible until you need them.
Apple has confirmed it will be holding a April release event on April 20, called "Spring Loaded," expected to feature the long-awaited "AirTags," an iPad Pro refresh, and perhaps other surprises.
Apple AR could feature Spatial Audio, as already used in the HomePod, HomePod mini, or AirPods Pro — but also recorded on compact devices.
Renders claimed to depict the "iPhone 13" give another chance to see what the 2021 iPhone could look like, complete with the rumored smaller notch.
An LG and Magna partnership is claimed to be "very near to signing contracts" to produce an "Apple Car," although similar leaks allegedly scuttled previous deals between Apple and other car companies.
Apple is researching new types of user interaction methods, including a system that could trigger certain features if it detects a user is present — including marking a notification as read.
Apple is continuing to research how to ensure the identity of someone presenting an iPhone to a passport official, or using any other digital ID document.
A purported image of forthcoming iPad mini dummy cases shows the same design as the iPad mini 5, while ones for the 12.9-inch iPad Pro appear to feature a reduced camera bump.
Apple's augmented reality plans could involve creating a 3D model of a user's fingers for interacting with virtual touchscreens, while the use of infrared optical markers may make it easier for AR systems to adjust what is seen on an iPhone or iPad's screen.
In the constant battle to provide consumers the best smartphone camera, one area that Apple has yet to innovate is optical zoom, which could use a so-called "periscope lens." We explain what the technology does, and how it could potentially increase the zoom range on the iPhone and other products with imaging capabilities.
The notch of the "iPhone 13" could shrink down considerably, a mockup of what the smartphone may look like proposes, accomplished by moving the top speaker to the edge of the front glass panel.
A refresh of the iMac line to include Apple Silicon could also bring with it a new display size, a prominent leaker predicts, with at least one model potentially having a larger screen than the existing 27-inch model.
A third-generation iPhone SE model said to launch in 2022 could retain a 4.7-inch LCD display but may have 5G support, according to a source familiar with Apple's display supply chain.

While Apple is not expected to significantly upgrade the rear-facing cameras in its next-generation iPhone series, the largest-screened model will get a slight performance bump thanks in part to a larger effective aperture, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
A future MacBook Pro keyboard may eliminate the switches of the keyboard in favor of a giant touch-sensitive surface that uses force detection and metal deformation to manage text entry.
