Imminent Arrival of 24-inch iMac Refresh with M2 and M2 Pro Chips Sparks Rumors

Rumors suggest that Apple may be planning to refresh the 24-inch iMac with upgraded M2 and M2 Pro options, as higher configurations of the current M1 iMac are experiencing delayed shipments. The M2 chip, released last year, would potentially allow for more RAM in the iMac. It was previously expected that the iMac would skip the M2 generation and wait for the M3 chip, but now it seems that M3 Macs are not expected until 2023. It remains to be seen if Apple will prioritize the M2 chip for the iMac or if there will be other changes such as new colors and USB-C accessories.

Steam Deck Refresh: The First Proof of WiFi 6E Upgrade

Valve has submitted a new Steam Deck for certification with the FCC, indicating that a hardware refresh may be on the horizon. The device, identified as "Valve 1030," was filed under the name Quectel, the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chip vendor used by Valve. The certification process suggests that the new Steam Deck may be close to release. While it is unclear if the refresh will only include Wi-Fi 6E support, Valve has the ability to hide new features behind the Wi-Fi chip certification. Additionally, there are hints that a wireless PC VR headset may also be in the works.
