Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) is just hours away from bringing its festivities online, and the public is getting excited for what the Cupertino giant has in store for its fans and enthusiasts. One of the largest rumors to be unveiled is the MacBook Pro 2021 redesign, which was speculated to be with a new M2 chip and the announcement of the iOS 15.

It also talked about the macOS 11 Big Sur, along with the iPhone and iPad's iOS 14, which were released in September's Fall event.
