Get ready for a very busy technical week starting next Monday (Oct 18) Over 3 days, 3 of the biggest players in consumer technology - Apple, Google and Samsung - have held product launch events By the middle of next week, we expect to have a host of new gear and gadgets from these companies to sort out, just as holiday shopping is ratcheting up

Struggling to sort out your Unlasheds from your Unlasheds Don't worry - we have a brief summary of each of the 3 big tech events happening on consecutive days We can tell you when each event is taking place, what the rumored factories say about each and what we want to see

Here we take a closer look at Apple Unleashed, the launch of Google Pixel Fall, and the latest Samsung Unpacked event

What the company said to everyone: Apple doesn't say anything to anyone about its plans, so there's no official guidance on what to expect All we have is the official announcement that Apple's fall event, called Unleashed, will be held on Monday (10/10) 18) 10am PT/1am ET We also know that just 1 month ago, Apple was showing off its iPhone13, iPad9, iPad mini6 and Apple Watch7 It really narrows the guesswork to figure out what's on Monday's tap You will have to assume that it is something related to Mac

What is Rumored: Here's where rumored factories can help us We know that Apple is moving from Intel's chip to Mac silicon Rumors have pointed out that both the 14-inch MacBook Pro and the 16-inch MacBook Pro are locked and loaded to boot with apple's new M1X chip It's a variation of the original M1 chipset, with a boost to the GPU and CPU, and more Thunderbolt channels

The rumored MacBook Pro model has more than just an updated chipset Reportedly, the laptop will be equipped with a fast refresh rate and a new design mini LED display

There are also rumors of an update to the Mac mini lineup, and that desktop also comes with an M1X chipset And if we didn't mention that AirPods3 is still waiting for a moment in the limelight after being left out of Apple's May 9 launch event, we'd be negligent

What we expect: The new Macbook looks naturally suited to an event called Unleashed — especially for Apple to talk about There is no less certainty about the Mac mini, which feels like an improved chip "while paying attention" style announcement

The big wildcard is AirPods3: Not very good for laptop-focused events, but the new AirPods that Apple spends time re-launching the iPhone13 are certainly the kind that Apple wants to go out on holiday, and in fact, these fall events are all That is not to say

What the company said to everyone: It might be faster to just say what Google hasn't revealed yet When it comes to Pixel6, Google is especially in the spotlight

First of all, we already know that there will be two phones: the 64-inch Pixel6 and the 671-inch Pixel6Pro 2 The larger phone has a 120Hz refresh rate and 3 rear cameras, 1 of which will be a telephoto lens The smaller Pixel6 holds the Pixel5's 2 rear cameras and provides a refresh rate of 90Hz Both phones will feature Google's new Tensor silicon instead of the Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset

There are some details left to announce — pricing Chief among them But in most cases, when Google announces Pixel6, there should be little surprise

We are pleased to announce that this Tuesday (Oct 19) As the fall launch event for the Google Pixel gets underway at 10 am PT/ 1 PM ET

What's Rumored: Apart from the price, there are a few things about Pixel6 that are just rumors at the moment We expect Pixel6 and Pixel6Pro to charge faster, and it sounds like Google is increasing the battery size even on new phones The main camera of each phone is reportedly also equipped with a 50MP sensor

The biggest issue surrounding Google's Pixel Fall launch event is whether other products will be included We've probably heard persistent rumors around the Pixel Fold, a foldable phone that is reported to be working on google But since these rumors don't have specific specifications, I wonder how far they are along the phone The Pixel Watch has been rumored for years, but I believe Google is actually making a slap-on-the-wrist moment There's also potential for new Pixelbooks and Pixel tablets

What we're Expecting: Obviously, Pixel6 and Pixel6Pro will get a moment in the sun and a new Pixel stand that will support those faster charging speeds, as the rumors assume solid If not a full announcement, we'll go out on a limb and anticipate a teaser for Pixel Fold, but we hope another foldable phone will challenge Samsung's dominance

What the company said to everyone: Instead of announcing the event, Samsung may have just jumped out from behind a tree shouting "surprise""No one really expected yet another unpacked event, so soon after one in May introduced us to Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Gala

But another unpacked event is what we're getting, Part 2 being held on Wednesday (Oct 20) これは10AmET/7AmPTでストリーミングされます You can see it on the Samsung website, and we expect that the YouTube feed will also spring

What's Rumored: The surprise event makes little sense in the rumored way that it leads us about what can be cooked with Samsung and Galaxy Unpacked Part 2 The most frequent rumors revolve around the galaxy S21fe, which is reportedly a low-cost version of the Galaxy S21 flagship and is under development However, rumors of this Galaxy S20FE successor are still circulating about whether the S21FE launch is imminent, or whether Samsung will bring it back to next year, when it can launch alongside the Galaxy S22 as a budget alternative, so if Wednesday's Unpacked event isn't about the Galaxy S21FE, what can it cover? Speculation online is focused on the event's teaser itself It shows a multicolored box with different apps The latter could be a reference to Samsung's ONE UI21 update, which is currently in beta with Galaxy S4 users With Android12 likely to be officially launched at Google's event the day before, Samsung is likely to show off its own take on the interface Speculation is also increasing the possibility of new color options for more than 1 of Samsung's current phones

What we expect: We are honestly perplexed It does not help that last year's unpacked event introduced us to smartphones, smartwatches and laptops, Samsung could have planned to announce almost anything, and it does not surprise us We certainly hpe electronics giants do exactly that
