Apple treated itself to keynotes for its new products this fall.
There will probably not be a fourth video conference, but new products may.
Apple
usually presents its most important products in carefully choreographed keynotes.
This autumn, the group kept its fans in suspense with three
events
.
But the Californians may have other
products
in the pipeline
for December
.
Munich -
Apple
* is starting the Christmas business with a completely renewed product portfolio.
In addition to new models of the popular
Apple Watch
* and the drilled-out
iPad Air
, the group has presented the
iPhone 12
in four new versions.
There are also new speakers and, for the first time, new MacBooks with the
processor developed
by
Apple
itself.
The new
MacBook Pro
and
MacBook Air
were celebrated
in the trade press
for their speed and unusually long battery life.
It looks like the Californians could saddle up again now.
At least that is what an internal circular to service providers suggests.
Thereafter, there will be changes to AppleCare offerings on Tuesday (December 8th) at 5:30 p.m. West Coast time and companies will be asked to prepare for "new items, new revised product descriptions and new / revised product prices," writes the US website MacRumours, citing the corresponding
Apple
memo.
AppleCare
is a kind of supplementary insurance for the Group's hardware offerings and also includes the corresponding technical support.
For the iPhone 12 Mini, for example, AppleCare costs 169 euros.
If the iPhone breaks during the warranty period of twelve months, it will be repaired with a deductible of 29 or 99 euros.
In the past,
Apple
had announced several new products at 5:30 p.m. West Coast time via press release, including the second
AirPod
generation and the 16-inch MacBook.
Apple: New speculation about luxury headphones
Now observers are speculating about further innovations.
The hottest candidates include the headphone headphones (
AirPods Studio
) and the
AirTags
.
They are a type of digital tag that is supposed to help you find lost keys or bags.
Apple
applied for a patent to this
effect
last year.
These patents of an #AirTags keychain that were filed a year ago now seem extremely likely. @ Jon_prosser previously announced that a leather carrying case would be sold separately.

The presentation of the new
Apple
search aids was originally
expected
for the first
Apple
keynote in October and the third keynote in November, but then did not take place.
With an estimated price of 25 to 30 euros, the AirTags could become the cheapest entry into the
Apple
world to
date
.
In addition, many observers are also betting on the announcement of the AirPods Studio headphones.
They are likely to be equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology and have active noise suppression on board.
Apple
experts
expect the new high-end headphones to cost between 350 and 600 dollars, depending on the features
.
However, there have been reports of an allegedly imminent market launch of the AirPods Studio for over two years, without anything having happened so far.
