Apple's Touchscreen MacBooks and OLED iPad mini Date Set

Apple appears to be planning a second October launch following its smart home event, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. He reports that some media have been invited to an all-day product launch experience on October 28 in Los Angeles.

The reported lineup is notable: touchscreen MacBooks, an OLED iPad mini, and a 14-inch MacBook Pro and iMac powered by the M6 chip. Gurman had previously pointed to October 27, which suggests Apple could announce the products that day and give press hands-on time a day later.

For the industry, a touchscreen MacBook would be a meaningful shift in how Apple approaches its laptop line, and an OLED iPad mini would bring a premium display to a compact tablet. Both are worth watching for developers, accessories makers and anyone planning upgrades.

These details are based on reporting and have not been confirmed by Apple. What product category do you think will see the biggest change this fall?
