Apple’s online store has gone down hours before the company’s big October 2018 event – and there’s no prizes for guessing it means new hardware is coming.
For regular followers of Apple’s events this will come as no surprise, as the company always tends to shut off access to the Apple Store ahead of new iPhone or iPad launches, only to boot the site back up again with pre-orders of the newly announced device ready and waiting for keen Apple fans.
Which is exactly what appears to be happening right now.
As well as the new iPad Pro, we’re expecting to see a 2018 Mac Mini update and a new MacBook Air break cover over in the States. Other possibilities include Apple AirPods 2 and hopefully a surprise or two.
And remember, as ever, you’ll be able to tune into all of the action online, but this time around, Apple is finally bringing to an end to the complicated song and dance that live streaming iPhone launch events on non-Apple devices normally involves.
