He even suggested that the company is aiming to introduce upgraded M2-based versions of its 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models. It is suggested to run on macOS Ventura 13.3 and iOS 16.3, in the first quarter of 2023.
He mentions, “Those software updates (macOS Ventura 13.3 and iOS 16.3) are expected to debut between early February and the beginning of March”.
He previously predicted that the company would skip hosting its October Event for the year. As the company reportedly only has routine incremental announcements that do not justify a full-fledged digital or physical event. The company mostly launches new iPad and MacBook models during its October event.
Last month, it released the iOS 16.1 updates to users. Along with updates to iPadOS 16.1, macOS Ventura, tvOS 16.1, and watchOS 9.1. The company hinted that this version includes a patch to address a previously reported zero-day vulnerability in the operating system. That the company admit may be actively exploited.
