Apple is known for its amazing products that shape the future of consumer technology. In 2025, the Cupertino-based tech giant already launched iPhone 16e. Also, several products are in the pipeline expected to launch. Based on the most current rumors, I have created a list of upcoming Apple products for 2025. Let’s take a look!
What can we expect from Apple in 2025?
Apple’s next roundup has started circulating. So, we have gathered all the predictions from analysts and industry-leading leakers to let you know about every Apple product coming in 2025.
1. MacBook Air M4
Mark Gurman states that Apple is preparing to update its MacBook Air lineup with new models featuring M4 processors sometime between January and March 2025. We can still count on its design to look like existing Liquid Retina displays. Improvements like nano-texture display option and 3 monitor external display support could also be announced by Apple.
At the heart of the new MacBook Air rests the M4 chip, expected to provide a 20% performance increase over its predecessor. Apple debuted the M4 chipset alongside the iPad Pro. The base model of MacBook Air M4 can have 16GB of unified memory — and upgrade up to 32GB — to enhance Apple Intelligence processing.
The new MacBook Air is likely to support Wi-Fi 7, offering ultra-fast wireless speeds and improved performance in crowded environments. Thunderbolt/USB 4 ports will likely remain, offering flexible high-speed connections with external devices. Additionally, Apple may include a 12MP Center Stage front camera similar to the M4 MacBook Pro.
The M4 chip’s efficiency is expected to result in excellent battery time on the MacBook Air, with up to 20-24 hours of use on a single charge. So, users can rely on the device for extended periods, making it ideal for students, professionals, and travelers.
2. 11th-gen iPad
A refreshed 11th-generation iPad is also on the way. We will perhaps not see drastic design changes but rather expect better internal specifications, such as more storage options.
Analysts predict that Apple is currently focusing on cost-effective production methods for this entry-level tablet. So, it may result in a more competitive price point while still delivering solid performance.
As of this writing, it is unclear what version of this chip the 11th-generation iPad will use. If we see the traditional releases, the A16 Bionic should be the one. However, Apple may jump to the AI bandwagon and include an A17 Pro processor and 8GB RAM in the next iPad 11. Moreover, rumors suggest the iPad 11th generation may get Wi-Fi 6E support.
The announcement for the 11th-gen iPad is expected to coincide with the iPad mini release, likely in the first quarter of 2025, shared by Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
3. iPad Air M3
The iPad Air M3 will likely arrive in early 2025 equipped with Apple’s M3 chip. So, it is expected to provide a 30% performance improvement compared to the previous generation. The tablet could feature 16GB RAM for handling complex tasks.
While the rumors are scarce, it is tipped that the device could sport an 11-inch Liquid Retina display with the same visual quality as previous generations and a refresh rate of 60Hz. You may also see a USB-C port with USB 3 speeds for speedy data transfers, which will support Wi-Fi 6E connectivity.
4. Mac Studio and Mac Pro
The Mac Studio is also anticipated to receive an update in 2025. However, according to Mark Gurman, M4 Mac Studio and Mac Pro may be available in mid-to-late 2025. The new model is set to come with more powerful higher-end M4 chips, including the M4 Max and Ultra chip.
A few insiders highlighted that Apple intends to significantly raise the maximum unified memory in high-end M4 Mac computers to 512GB. This may be due to Apple’s focus on AI development features. Also, the update is likely to introduce Thunderbolt 5.
5. iPhone 17 and 17 Pro lineup
Apple has already made headlines with the launch of the iPhone 16 lineup. However, rumors of iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro models are already brewing. Various leaks hint at substantial changes in Apple’s flagship lineup, where the Plus model may be replaced with an iPhone 17 Slim or iPhone 17 Air.
As reported by Ming-Chi Kuo, the ultra-thin iPhone 17 model may have a 6.6-inch screen size with a titanium-aluminum alloy metal frame to make the device lightweight. Also, an insider from Jeff Pu captured by 9to5Mac suggests the iPhone 17 Pro Max is expected to feature a smaller Dynamic Island due to the proximity sensor’s metalens technology.
This may also mean the Face ID sensor will be potentially embedded under the display, as noted by Ross Young. Moreover, the iPhone 17 series is anticipated to feature LTPO displays across all models.
The iPhone 17 series is likely to be powered by the A19 chip, with the Pro models possibly featuring an A19 Pro variant. This new processor is expected to be built on a 2nm process, promising improved performance and energy efficiency. There are also rumors from HotHardwire that Apple may integrate Wi-Fi 7 support in the chip.
Additionally, MacRumors highlighted the iPhone 17 Pro Max model is expected to include a triple-camera system with three 48-megapixel lenses (wide, ultra-wide, and telephoto). On the other hand, all iPhone 17 models are anticipated to have a new 24-megapixel tetraprism front-facing camera, known from Kuo’s survey. So, the selfie qualities will be drastically enhanced in various lighting conditions. Additionally, the iPhone 17 Air may include a single rear camera to reduce cost.
6. Apple Watch Series 11
Apple’s upcoming Apple Watch Series 11, expected to launch in September 2025, is poised to introduce several notable features and enhancements. Rumors indicate the introduction of a microLED display. However, we are estimating an LTPO panel offering higher brightness, better color accuracy, and improved energy efficiency.
In terms of health monitoring, Mark Gurman speculated the Series 11 would be able to monitor blood glucose levels non-invasively and blood pressure tracking. Additionally, improvements to existing features like ECG and blood oxygen monitoring are anticipated, providing more accurate and comprehensive health data.
Equipped with a new S12 chip, the Apple Watch Series 11 is projected to deliver faster performance and improved efficiency. The Series 11 will run on watchOS 12, expected to introduce Apple Intelligence features such as Notification Summary.
7. Apple Watch Ultra 3 and SE upgraded version
Experts are anticipating a slew of new Apple Watch models in 2025, including the Apple Watch SE and Apple Watch Ultra 3. The Apple Watch SE is expected to feature a major design overhaul and be announced with the iPhone SE 4 in the spring event.
However, Gurman stated that the Apple Watch Ultra 3 will likely have a nominal hardware upgrade. Apple may focus more on integrating the AI features. Also, it won’t be around until September 2025 because Apple needs “more time to develop innovative health management features,” as noted by Ming-Chi Kuo.
Meanwhile, now deleted reports from Omdia suggest that the Apple Watch SE 4 could borrow the design from Apple Watch Series 9. They even say that it may get the S9 SiP and Apple Watch Series 4’s ECG feature.
Mark Gurman previously anticipated that Apple may release an Apple Watch Series X this year, which would replace the existing band attachment mechanism with a magnetic one. However, Apple did not use the term in the September launch event and unveiled the Series 10 as usual. Therefore, it’s unclear if there will be a Series X or not.
8. AirPods Pro 3
Apple is anticipated to unveil the AirPods Pro 3 in September 2025 with enhanced design, performance, and health monitoring capabilities. According to Bloomberg, the AirPods Pro 3 is expected to feature a sleeker design, offering improved comfort and a more compact charging case for enhanced portability.
Powered by the new H3 chip, Apple aims to deliver superior audio quality and extended battery life compared to its predecessors. Moreover, users are expected to enjoy advanced Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) as per a credible leaker Kosutami.
On the other hand, the AirPods Pro 3 may include innovative features such as a built-in temperature sensor and heart rate monitoring. Mark Gurman has backed up this rumor in his newsletter.
9. MacBook Pro M5
According to the previous launches, the MacBook Pro M5 will be in late 2025 in the October product cycle. It is likely to introduce the M5 series chips, including M5 and M5 Pro variants.
The MacBook Pro M5 is expected to maintain the current design, featuring mini-LED displays. However, significant design changes, including a shift to OLED displays, are projected for the MacBook Pro M6 in 2026.
Reports from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suggest that the MacBook Pro M5 may incorporate a new compact camera module, potentially contributing to a thinner laptop design.
10. HomePod mini 2
The HomePod mini 2 may launch in late 2025 and will be the first major upgrade to the original HomePod mini since the original model was released in 2020.
The HomePod mini 2 is expected to retain a similar design to its predecessor, but it may come with new color options to suit a variety of home decors. Apple might add a second-generation Ultra Wideband chip for a lower-latency Handoff experience as well, MacRumors claimed.
Moreover, the device may incorporate Apple’s combined Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chip, potentially supporting Wi-Fi 6E, according to a Bloomberg report. That being said, there may be a new “S” chip for improved audio performance. These enhancements are designed to offer a fuller listening experience, as well as improved recognition of Siri commands.
11. AirTag 2
Apple is reportedly developing the second generation of its item tracker, the AirTag 2. According to Mark Gurman, the planned release may be held in mid-2025.
One expected improvement is the integration of Apple’s second-generation Ultra Wideband (UWB) chip, which debuted in the iPhone 15 lineup. This upgraded chip is anticipated to offer up to three times the range of the original. So, users would be able to locate items over greater distances with Precision Finding.
Moreover, Apple is expected to implement measures to make the AirTag 2’s built-in speaker more difficult to remove. It is aimed to prevent disabling the audible alerts that notify individuals of nearby unknown AirTags.
Analyst Ming Chi Kuo also shared that the AirTag 2 is rumored to feature improved integration with Apple’s Vision Pro headset. While specific details remain scarce, this integration could provide users with innovative ways to interact with and locate their items in a mixed-reality environment.
12. New HomePod with a touchscreen display
Apple could finally release a HomePod with a display to compete with Google and Amazon’s existing smart home devices. According to reports from Ming Chi Kuo, the new HomePod would feature a 7-inch display.
Not only that, earlier reports from Mark Gurman have also suggested that Apple is working on a high-end speaker with a touch screen, which could possibly combine an Apple TV set-top box with a camera for video calling.
To add fuel to the fire, code seen by 9to5Mac in tvOS 17.4 beta 3 reveals the existence of a new device capable of running tvOS. This device, identified as “Z314,” seems to be powered by an A15 Bionic chip.
The code also reveals that prototype and production versions of this device are already under test, suggesting that the new HomePod has reached an advanced stage of development. However, the probable launch date has not yet been anticipated.
