New Products announced by Apple - including new MacBook Pro

I know there are several clients who have spoken to me in the past few months about whether to upgrade their current MacBook Pro - and I suggested that it might be worth waiting until Apple releases the M2 version of the MacBook Pro range (as Apple has already releases new MacBook Airs with the latest greatest M2 chip, so it seemed likely they would soon offer the same in the MacBook Pro).

It is frustrating to have just purchased the 'latest', only to find that a new 'latest' arrives just after your purchase.

Normally, new Apple product announcements in the first half of the year occur around March - and this is when I was expecting news of the new MacBook Pros.

But in a break from their normal timing, Apple has announced some new products during the past week - including the new M2 MacBook Pros.

iOS 13 is here - but don't rush to install

Apple launched its latest upgrade to the operating system for our iPhones on Friday September 20th. iOS 13 is now available for all iPhones from iPhone 6s and newer. (iPhone 6, 5 series and 4 series can not be upgraded to iOS 13.)

You will notice that I am only mentioning the iPhones here - as there will be a new separate operating system for iPads, called iPadOS, launched on September 30th (or Oct 1 in Australia).

So, should you upgrade your iPhone to iOS 13 straight away?

New iPhone announcement this week - and a warning if you are thinking of switching to a new device

This coming week will see announcement from Apple of the latest (and I'm sure greatest) iPhone range, as well as the launch of the new iOS 13, macOS Catalina and other news.

In the lead-up to these announcements on September 10th (or early morning September 11th Australian time), it would be an excellent time to bring all those Apple devices up to date - so that you have the most recent iOS 12 and macOS version. This then allows you 'hold fire' for a little while on installing the latest operating systems.

We always suggest that it is a good idea to wait for a while so that others can find any teething problems.
