Apple is purportedly planning to unveil a new 16-inch MacBook Pro at a September press event, according to IHS Markit via Forbes.

"We foresee that Apple will release a new product [at the] Sep’19 Apple event if there’s no unexpected development issue," said Jeff Lin, Associate Director, Consumer Electronics.

IHS Markit believes Apple will use a 3072x1920 LCD display from LG for the new notebook and Intel's 9th generation H series mobile processors. Additionally, Lin says Apple could update the 13.3-inch MacBook Pro and the Retina MacBook Air with new processors.

A redesigned 16-inch MacBook Pro was first predicted by TF Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. Since then we've heard rumors that its release has been pushed back to 2021 and that Samsung could supply OLED displays for the notebook.

Earlier this month, Apple registered seven new MacBook models with the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC). It's possible that a 16-inch MacBook Pro could be among the new models.
