In the spirit of the spooky season, today’s newsletter is full of tips and treats -- the sweetest of which is Apple’s unveiling of three new Macs at its [“Scary Fast” event]( Monday night. If, like me, you were too busy painting pumpkins and missed the event, here’s what you need to know. Apple unveiled the newest generations of the [iMac, MacBook Pro 14 and MacBook Pro 16](. The real improvements are inside these systems, with Apple’s new line of M3 chips. To understand why these chips are a big deal, CNET computing expert Lori Grunin breaks it down for us. Essentially, these chips are faster, especially if you upgrade from a machine with an M1 chip. Grunin reports that the processors also have some of the advancements Apple displayed in the [A17 Pro chip]( in its new [iPhone 15 Pro and Max]( models. On a less technical note, the new iMacs will come in the usual range of rainbow colors, and the MacBooks with M3 Pro and Pro Max chips will be available in a new Space Black. You can preorder the devices now, and they will officially go on sale Nov. 7. Until Thursday, happy reading and a happy Halloween to you! -- Katelyn Chedraoui, writer INSIDER ESSENTIALS display:%20block;%20max-width:%20116px;%20%20max-height:%2015px; display:%20block;%20max-width:%2069px;%20%20max-height:%2015px; [Apple's M3 Chips Power Refreshed iMac, MacBook Pro 14 and 16]( [Apple's M3 Chips Power Refreshed iMac, MacBook Pro 14 and 16]( [The M3, M3 Pro and M3 Max bring the biggest enhancements.]( [See this]( [Review: Monokei Standard Keyboard 'Is Hard Not to Like']( [Review: Monokei Standard Keyboard 'Is Hard Not to Like']( [See this]( [Xreal Air vs. Viture XR: Which Display Glasses Are Right for You?]( [Xreal Air vs. Viture XR: Which Display Glasses Are Right for You?]( [See this]( [Google Maps' AI-Powered Features Are Rolling Out]( [Google Maps' AI-Powered Features Are Rolling Out]( [See this]( [I Drank the Nothing Beer So You Don't Have To]( [I Drank the Nothing Beer So You Don't Have To]( [See this]( [Here's Everything to Know About NameDrop on iPhone]( [Here's Everything to Know About NameDrop on iPhone]( [See this]( [More Eye Drops Are Recalled.
