What are History Archiveswe expecting to see at the Apple October event? Billed "Scary Fast", new iDevices are reportedly on the way. What throws us off, however, is that the Cupertino-based tech giant will be holding the pre-recorded livestream at 5 p.m. PDT.

This means that I, on the East Coast, will have to tune in at 8 p.m. for an Apple event. During my tenure as a tech journalist, I've never attended a nighttime Apple event. This is a first!

Adding to the spooky vibes of this Halloween-themed event is the mysteriousness shrouding the iDevices Apple will drop on Monday. With the Finder icon being on Apple's official invite, there's a hint that new Macs will be in our future, but the question is, which ones?

The 4 Macs rumored to be revealed at the 'Scary Fast' event

According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman and Ming-Chi Kuo, two reliable Apple leakers, here are the iDevices we may see on Monday:

• 16-inch MacBook Pro with new M3 Pro and M3 Pro chips

• 13-inch MacBook Pro with new M3 chip

We haven't seen an update of the iMac since 2021 when Apple revealed colorful 24-inch variants packed with the M1 chip. The 13-inch MacBook Pro, released in June 2022 with the M2 chip, is also due for an upgrade.

However, the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros just got upgraded in January of this year, which is why many – including myself – are skeptical of Gurman and Kuo's claims. However, Gurman is refusing to back down.

"While rare, Apple has refreshed a Mac twice in one year. I’ll never forget Apple announced the iMac G5 with a built-in iSight camera in Oct. ’05 and then hilariously updated it to Intel in Jan. ’06 - only 3 months later," Gurman said in a tweet.

If you've been crossing your fingers for some new iPads, don't hold your breath. Gurman says new iPads are coming in March. Kuo also mentioned that he doesn't expect to see iPads this year whatsoever.
