The tablets may also have USB-C connectivity, as well as updated Apple Pencil styluses. The company might finally redesign its popular but outdated $999 MacBook Air.

In September, Apple unveiled its new "iPhone XS", "XS Max" and "XR" phones during a launch at the Steve Jobs Theater on its new campus in Cupertino, California. The company also updated its Apple Watch with a slimmer design. The tech powerhouse has been soaring over the past few years and in August became the US' first trillion-dollar company.
