Apple is gearing up to release a new version of its iMac with a vastly improved 4K display, according to reports.

The computer could be released as soon as next week, though initial supplies might be constrained until November. And then the much-anticipated iPad Pro will be released early next month.

The company will announce the new computer next week and they could start appearing in stores as soon as 13 October, according to 9to5mac. They will mostly feature a redesigned display and new graphics cards, and apart from the screen will look identical to the existing iMac line.

The iPad Pro is set to be released in early November, according to the same report. Apple didn’t announce a release date for the huge new laptop at its launch event last month.

Apple has also been preparing a new Magic Mouse that features Force Touch, its pressure-sensitive technology that can trigger extra events by pressing hard. That has already been rolled out to other Apple computers, such as the MacBook laptops.
