![]() But it has reached such a fever pitch this year, everyone is sure it must be finally coming true. What will actually be announced at this most unusual event is all just rumour and speculation, some of which (most notably, the headset) has been circling Apple for several years. Here in California, the new era is scheduled to begin at 10am on Monday.)Īpple has also confirmed that the keynote will be held outdoors with little or no shade for attendees again this year, which could be a challenge if it does run long. Perhaps the only thing normal about this year’s WWDC is that Apple, which historically never discusses yet-to-be-announced products, has not discussed any of it, other than to tweet cryptically that “a new era begins” with the Tuesday-morning conference. In addition to the new headset and software, rumours are rife that there might be a long-awaited update to the MacBook Air, in the form of a second, 15-inch model to accompany the 13.6-inch model the company released last year.Īn update to the Mac Studio workstation might also be on the cards.Īll those announcements, plus an exposition of the new operating system that will be required to run the mixed-reality headsets, mean the opening keynote address by Apple CEO Tim Cook looks set to be one of the most important (and possibly longest) in recent Apple history. It kicks off on Tuesday morning Australian time at the company’s headquarters in Cupertino, California. Larger than life: Apple CEO Tim Cook presents (via video) at last year’s WWDC. The conference, which has historically catered to software developers building apps for Apple’s iPhone, iPad, Watch, TV and Mac platforms, is expected to include announcements of big software updates, including one for the iPhone that may mean Apple reverses its long-held policy of not allowing apps to be installed from anywhere but the App Store. A raft of changes are expected across its sprawling range. Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference this week is not just expected to be the first time in almost a decade it has introduced a major new product category, a mixed-reality headset thought to be called the Reality Pro.
