Headlining the event should be a totally redesigned MacBook Pro, which has existed in its current form for a good four years now. Rumors point to a touch-capable OLED strip on the keyboard above the number row that can adapt to whatever app you're using. Touch ID might be making its way to the Mac for the first time, as well. Of course, the computers will likely be thinner and lighter and will probably see many of the innovations Apple first rolled out in the MacBook in 2015. The butterfly keyboard mechanism, tiered battery design and reliance on USB-C all seem likely to come on board at this point. We're hoping the MacBook Pro will be available in a variety of colors for the first time, too.

Beyond that, spec bumps for the iMac and MacBook Air seem like good bets, as does the inclusion of USB-C on those models as well. Looking beyond the Mac line, it's also possible the iPad will get some love. The iPad Air 2, while still a very capable tablet, is now two years old. And the 12.9-inch iPad Pro is just about a year old and lags behind the smaller iPad Pro in a few key ways. It wouldn't surprise us to see both of those devices get some updates.

Whatever Apple has to show off, we'll be there live to bring you all the news as it happens when the event starts at 10AM PT/ 1PM ET.

Apple will finally update its Mac lineup on October 27th

I gave up waiting and copped a 15" last month. I want to switch to 13" for portability though but will have to take a hit selling my 15" at a loss:francis:

If you bought it from Apple direct you can make use of their open box returns policy. Check the policy in your area but here in the UK you can return it within 14 days of receiving it even if you have used it.

Same thing happened to me last year fam. Don't sweat it, this year's model is great. Upgrades likely won't be anything earth-shattering. You'll be good to go for years.

Only a week out it's foolish to keep it. Just refuse delivery and wait. The updates should be significant as the MacBooks are due for a chassis refresh.
