After three events over the past three months, Apple apparently has one more launch event in store for the last month of the year. However, all that is rumored concerns AppleCare-related changes planned to take place on Tuesday. These changes involve new product SKUs, product descriptions, as well as product pricing.
This week, Apple sent an internal memo that somehow ended up in the hands of a certain individual that forwarded the info to MacRumors. According to this document, next Tuesday will come with AppleCare changes that involve new product SKUs, as well as new/updated product descriptions and pricing.
While the above has not been confirmed by Apple, nearly identical memos have leaked in the past a few times. For example, Apple advised technicians to get ready for similar AppleCare-related changes on October 13, at the time when the iPhone 12 launch event began.
The time mentioned for the Tuesday, December 8 event, is 5:30 AM Pacific Time. In the past, this was usually the hour when new products were introduced via press releases. Considering this, it would not be surprising to see a soft launch of a few updated hardware products, maybe some new service as well.
While the introduction of a new/updated Mac seems quite likely, there are quite a few rumors to keep an eye on: AirTags, AirPods-branded over-ear headphones, as well as a new Apple TV with a gaming controller. Would you bet on any of them? We will probably find out in just a few days, so stay tuned.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I've been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
