The very reliable KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has published (via 9to5mac)his expectations of the products in Apple’s pipeline in 2014.

According to the report, here are Kuo’s predictions:

12-inch MacBook with new design + Retina Display:

• Smaller MacBook with entirely new design
• Launching in either Q2 or Q3 of 2014
• 12-inch screen, but as portable as current 11-inch MacBook Air and productive as 13-inch MacBook Air
• Higher-resolution display (Retina)
• Will “redefine laptop computing” once again just like the current MacBook Air design
• Thinner/lighter than MacBook Air, new clamshell structure
• Will run on Intel chip, not Apple-based A8 processor
• Potentially lower-cost than current Apple notebooks

Lower-cost iMac:

• Apple could ship a cheaper iMac next-year
• Current iMac did not ship as many units as expected
• Lower-cost model could help combat Windows desktops
• Kuo expects this iMac model to boost iMac sales by 10-20%
• Ship in Q2 or Q3 2014

Sixth-generation full-sized iPad:

• Would carry same 9.7-inch screen size as current iPad and upcoming iPad 5
• Display would be higher-resolution with a PPI (pixels-per-inch) of 30-40% higher than the current Retina iPad
• Third-generation iPad mini would retain the 2048×1536 Retina display of the upcoming iPad mini 2

Interestingly, Kuo is not expecting an iPad with a larger display as suggested by DisplaySearch recently.
