Apple’sPeek Performance eventon March 8 could see the company launch a brand-new external monitor. That’s according to reporter Mark Gurman, who believes the product will be unveiled alongside a newhigh-end Mac Mini.
Gurman describes how, alongside theiPhone SE, iPad Air, and Mac Mini, Apple could also announce a “wild card” product at the show. While this might indeed be the new monitor, Gurman cautions that it could instead be an updatediMac Proor a new, smaller Mac Pro. While those devices could be shown off at the event, Gurman says they are probably not ready to be launched yet — which could explain the “Peek” element of the event’s name.
It comes after 9to5Mac alleged its sources had told it that Apple is working on a new“Studio Display”monitor with a 7K resolution that could sit alongside the company’s Pro Display XDR. It’s unclear whether this device is the same one Gurman says Apple might unveil at the Peek Performance show or something else, but we wouldn’t totally rule it out.
Multiple monitors ahead
Interestingly, Gurman and 9to5Mac are not the only sources claiming Apple is working on a new display. Renowned Apple analystMing-Chi Kuo has saidApple’s Mac outlook for 2022 includes a “more powerful Mac Mini and more affordable external display (27-inch without Mini-LED).”
Predictions for Apple's new desktop products:1. 2022: More powerful Mac mini and more affordable external display (27-inch without mini-LED).2. 2023: Mac Pro and iMac Pro.

That lines up with a previous prediction from Twitter leaker Dylandkt, who stated Apple is working onseveral new monitors, including a 27-inch model with a 120Hz ProMotion refresh rate. However, Dylandkt argued the 27-inch monitor would have a Mini-LED panel, while Kuo does not believe that will be the case. That muddies the water a little but suggests Apple might have several monitors up its sleeve for 2022.
