Apple holds its first meeting of the year on March 23, according to information released by a trusted Chinese leak (via DuanRui). Apple is expected to launch AirTags, new iPads and possibly updated AirPods during a spring event, and the fun “Kang” believes the date will be March 23rd.
The initial speculation points to an event taking place on March 16; however, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman turned down the possibility and opened the door for an event later in the month. Kang says Apple’s event will be held on the same date as the unveiling of the OnePlus 9, scheduled for Tuesday, March 23.
Due to the global health crisis, Apple’s event is expected to be held digitally and can be held live via its website and the official YouTube channel. March 23 and 30 are both reasonable guesses for when Apple will hold an event. Apple tends to hold events on Tuesday and is also expected to hold an opportunity in the ‘early spring’ to coincide with the launch of App Tracking Transparency in iOS 14.5.
Official details of Apple’s event remain unknown. However, growing evidence of the impending release of ‘AirTags’ suggests that Apple’s Tile-like tracker may debut on the rumored event on March 23. DigiTimes, and others, also suggested that Apple release updated iPad models with mini-LED screens and faster processors in the first half of the year.
Shortly after Kang suggested the date of March 23, YouTube personality and Apple leak Jon Prosser, who he or she missed tweeted “23,” in an apparent proof of support for Kang and his prediction of the date.
Last year, Kang first accurately announced that Apple was planning to revive the MagSafe brand for iPhone 12, and also leaked exact details and launch dates for the full iphone 12 die series and the rumored HomePod mini before it was officially announced. .
