Apple expected to unveil new MacBooks
CNN
Apple is about to kick off its second big product event of the fall.
At a virtual event on Monday at 1 pm ET, the company is expected to show off two high-end MacBook Pro laptops powered by its next-generation silicon chip, the M1X. The line is rumored to come in two sizes and feature thinner bezels, improved displays, longer-lasting batteries and more memory options. Apple may also do away with the touch bar -- a divisive feature that replaced the row of function keys at the top of the keyboard with text prediction and shortcuts.
The company may also introduce an update to its entry-level AirPods that's more in line with the features of the AirPods Pro line.
