Apple to Announce New Magic Mouse, Trackpad, Keyboard With USB-C Alongside New Macs [Report]

Apple will announce a new Magic Mouse, Magic Trackpad, and Magic Keyboard with USB-C alongside new Macs next week, according to a new Bloomberg report. The new products will likely be shown off during the company's 'Scary Fast' special event on October 30.

As part of a broader shift to USB-C connectors, the company will likely roll out updated versions of accessories — including its trackpad, mouse and keyboard — that ditch the old Lightning ports.

Apple is now widely expected to unveil new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros on Monday that are codenamed J514 and J516.


Allegedly, there have been two versions of the M3 Pro in testing. One has 12 main processor cores (6 high performance, 6 high efficiency) and 18 graphics cores. The other has 14 main processor cores (10 high performance, 4 high efficiency) and 30 graphics cores. Similarly, there are multiple M3 Max chips in testing including a top-end version with 16 main cores (12 high performance, 4 high efficiency) and 40 graphics cores. It's also rumored that Apple could introduce new configurations that have 24GB and 48GB of RAM.

For the iMac, the design is expected to stay the same but there could be a revamped stand. Codenamed J433 and J434, the desktop could feature an M3 chip with 8 main cores (4 high performance, 4 high efficiency) and 10 graphics cores.

Bloomberg notes that Apple has been working on a 13-inch MacBook Pro (codenamed J504) with an M3 chip, but it doesn't expect that device to debut on Monday. Neither are new MacBook Airs expected.
