For All Mankind
We got a preview of a new Apple TV Plus show called For All Mankind, which explores an alternate universe where the Soviets made it to the moon before the US.
Mac Pro and Pro Display XDR
A redesigned return to the cheese-grater Mac Pro can house some of the most powerful desktop components on the market and the new monitor is the brightest wide-gamut model at a peak 1,600 nits.
MPX module
The Mac Pro supports up to two MPX modules which support Thunderbolt up to 500 watts of power draw.
Afterburner
Apple developed its own video accelerator to handle high-res professional video real-time rendering.
1.4 kilowatt power supply
That's ... a lot.
Pro Display XDR
Apple's new 32-inch display is intended to replace both reference and working displays for video editors. It's a true HDR 10-bit panel at 6K resolution that can hit 1,600 nits at peak brightness and sustained 1,000 nits. Because it must be named, the 6,016x2,284 resolution version is now "6K Retina." It's still about 215 ppi, though.
Pro Display XDR
Apple increases the brightness by boosting the blue backlight and using local dimming.
Pro Display XDR stand
Apple also made an overdesigned stand that you can buy for $1,000, but at least you can raise, lower, swivel and rotate the display.
Bye-bye, iTunes
In MacOS Catalina Apple has split iTunes' capabilities into Podcasts, Music and Apple TV apps.
Project Catalyst
Sort of like the earlier project called "Marzipan," Catalyst is a far more built-out interface for porting iPadOS apps to MacOS.
Expanded controller support for Apple TV
PS4 and Xbox One controller support finally arrived in Apple's TVOS.
Maps
Apple Maps also incorporates more personalization.

Features such as real-time transit and flight status info beef up Apple's navigation tools.
Sign in with Apple
Instead of logging in to accounts via third parties, you can now sign on to them via Apple using your Face or Touch ID.
Anonymous random email addresses
Now you don't have to create fake email addresses for everything -- Apple can now do it for you and forward them to your active email account.

You have tons more options for making your Memoji look more like you -- or less.

iPadOS
Apple split its mobile operating systems into iOS (iPhone) and iPadOS so that it could take better advantage of the extra screen real estate on the iPad.

Apple significantly beefed up Files capabilities, turning it into a more standard file system, which enabled features like a download manager.

Another capability made possible by beefing up Files.
