Apple's upcoming "Scary Fast" event, scheduled for October 30, promises new Mac models, with a release date for these devices set for Wednesday, November 8, according to information obtained by MacRumors.
Renowned analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has suggested that the star of the event will be the M3 series MacBook Pro, possibly accompanied by the unveiling of an Apple M3 iMac.
I believe M3 series MacBook Pro will be Oct 30th media event's focus. I previously predicted a launch this year is unlikely due to limited 4Q23 shipments (less than 400-500k units in total). If new MBPs launch in Nov-Dec, tight supply will last into 1Q24 unless demand weakens. pic.twitter.com/R6tVIYyQop

It's clear that Apple is sharpening in on its all-new M3 models, explaining the event's emphasis on speed.
While the specifics of the hardware to be unveiled remain somewhat veiled in mystery, it's likely that we'll see a range of MacBook Pro options, potentially in 13-inch, 14-inch, or 16-inch configurations.
One intriguing aspect of the M3 MacBook Pro is the possibility of enhanced graphical capabilities, including hardware ray tracing.
This feature, which was introduced in the iPhone 15 Pro with the A17 Pro chip, could be a game-changer for MacBook users, aligning the laptops with the capabilities of their mobile counterparts.
