As 2022 begins, there is much discussion about Apple's 2022 spring conference. Last year, Apple's spring launch was held on April 20, when the AirTag, M1 iPad Pro, 24-inch iMac, Apple TV 4K, and purple iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini were launched.
Among the new products this year, the hottest include the third-generation iPhone SE, the redesigned 27-inch iMac, and the higher Mac mini.
01 Probably the cheapest 5G iPhone (Apple iPhone SE)
Several analysts have mentioned the existence of a third-generation iPhone SE. The SE is Apple's smallest size model and the lowest-priced phone series, and with the iPhone SE supporting 5G, users will usher in the cheapest 5G iPhone.
The new iPhone SE looks similar to the existing model, with a 4.7-inch display with touch ID solid buttons. It is reported that the A15 chip is expected to be installed on the iPhone SE, and the price of the phone is lower than the existing model. But how many people would still choose a 4.7-inch phone? I'm afraid there's a question mark here.
02 27-inch iMac with self-developed chip (Apple iMac 24-inch)
Apple redesigned the iMac in 2021, only with some reservations in configuration. At present, Apple favors the mini-LED panel, the M series chips have also been upgraded, and the new configuration is expected to be assembled on the iMac.
According to existing revelations, Apple's 27-inch iMac looks similar to 24-inch, but the color scheme will be more low-key, may be equipped with a mini-LED display, support variable refresh rates of up to 120Hz, and the chip will have M1 Pro and M1 Max.
03 High-end Apple Mac mini
Along with the new 27-inch iMac, there was also the Mac mini. The Mac mini conference of the M1 chip has been welcomed by many users, and the price of more than 4,000 perennial price guarantees a very high cost performance.
However, the biggest advantage of the M1 chip is the power consumption control, which is the most compatible with mobile portable devices, and there is still room for performance improvement for professional users who need to deal with complex tasks. If the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips come to the Mac mini, they can solve this problem perfectly. However, the price may be doubled.
As for the long-rumored VR/AR headset, the latest report said it had been postponed until the end of the year. However, the emergence of one more thing as a spring conference is still possible.
