Apple Announces October 13, 2020 Online Media Event

As tweeted by Federico, Apple has announced a media event for October 13, 2020, at 10:00 am Pacific. The event will be held online only.

Based on widespread speculation, Apple is expected to introduce its new lineup of iPhones. Rumors point to the possibility of over-ear headphones and, perhaps, the long-rumored AirTag location trackers too.

Apple may also take the opportunity to release macOS 11.0 Big Sur and preview upcoming Apple Silicon-based Macs, which the company said at WWDC are coming before the end of the year. If Apple’s September Apple Watch and iPad event is any indication, the final 11.0 version of macOS Big Sur could be released to the public shortly after the event.
