My Apple wishlist for 2021:

A new low-cost Apple-Silicon MacBook. Imagine this: iPad and MacBook, iPad Air and MacBook Air, iPad Pro and MacBook Pro. There is a certain level of satisfaction with that line up, don't you think? (I can't imagine a MacBook mini though.)

A new iPhone 13 mini. And the iPhone 12 mini becomes the new iPhone SE. With new colors. Maybe even with two options: iPhone SE with FaceID and iPhone SE with TouchID.

A much better and more complete Mac Catalyst.
