Hoping for new MacBooks at WWDC 2021? Perhaps prepare for disappointment

Apple won’t be displaying off any new MacBooks imminently at WWDC 2021, heading by a fresh rumor that could foretell a disappointing blow for lots of hopefuls.

Observe that this really considerably runs from the grain of the rumor mill of late, which has been rather considerably awash with speculation about a MacBook launch of some form getting about to take place. But that is, of class, the thing about rumors – you just can’t depend on them.

And equally that’s genuine with this hottest nugget shipped by perfectly-identified leaker l0vetodream, who on Twitter (as spotted by MacRumors) declared that the purported new MacBook Pro fourteen-inch and MacBook Pro sixteen-inch models might not be revealed any time soon (so obviously which means not at WWDC).

Now, first of all, the (translated) tweet does not seem particular on this, so this does not experience like the firmest ground for ruling out a MacBook launch in any case. As mentioned, there have been a lot of rumors insisting that some form of Apple laptop computer refreshing will take place later now, with speculation built primarily all around one or two new MacBook Pro versions.

These rumors include things like a Morgan Stanley analyst (predicting that we might even see a new M2 chip within the devices), an analyst from Wedbush, and Jon Prosser (another authoritative Apple leaker) between others.

Specified all that, it would arguably be relatively astonishing if Apple did not reveal a MacBook at WWDC – but certainly practically nothing is confirmed either way, and we’ll understand the fact soon plenty of.

Teaser time?

Maybe a center-ground could be some form of teaser from Apple, as opposed to a total reveal of any form. Curiously, the most latest rumor we noted on – from the Morgan Stanley analyst, Katy Huberty – observed that there could be an unveiling at WWDC, but the components itself might not launch till considerably later in 2021.

That ties up with other latest chatter on the grapevine of the excellent part scarcity probably influencing MacBook production, not to mention discuss of likely delays to 2022 for Mini LED-toting MacBooks (which these new versions will purportedly be).

Anyhow, as we said – not long to wait around now, and fingers crossed we get more than just a transient glimpse or teaser of any revamped MacBooks at WWDC.
