Apple Store is down ahead of WWDC

We expect new MacBooks, maybe a few new Macs, and definitely a new mixed reality headset.

It's an exciting day for Apple fans: New Apple gadgets are coming.

If you needed any more proof beyond the mountain of rumors and reports ahead of the company's Worldwide Developers Conference, which starts at 1p.m. ET later today, consider this: Apple Store is down, and that typically means new Apple products are coming.

If you visit the Apple Store now, you'll see that the page features an unusual, warped, animated Apple logo, which is likely another last-minute hint that something related to virtual/augmented/mixed reality is coming.

That would likely be the Reality Pro, a long-expected mixed reality headset, with the accompanying new xrOS, and a bunch of new apps an experiences for Apple's new mixed reality ecosystem.

We also expect to see a new MacBook Air today, alongside with (possibly) new Mac Studio desktop computers.

On top of all that, Apple will surely announce the next major versions of its software platforms: iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, and watchOS.

Check out our detailed preview of what to expect at the event here.
