Apple to Launch These 15+ New Products Later This Year

[MacRumors]

March has been an incredibly busy month for Apple, with the company unveiling more than 10 new products and accessories. We said hello to the MacBook Neo at the start of the month, and we bid farewell to the Mac Pro at the end of it.

Nevertheless, there is still a lot more to come this year.

Beyond the usual annual updates to iPhones and Apple Watches, Apple's all-new smart home hub is finally expected to launch later this year, once the more personalized version of Siri arrives. We are also expecting a foldable iPhone, a MacBook Pro with an OLED display, and long-awaited updates to the Apple TV and HomePods this year.

Here is what to expect from Apple later this year, according to rumors. Where there are arrows shown, it refers to a device's current chip → next chip.

iPhones

• iPhone 18 Pro: A20 Pro chip, a smaller Dynamic Island, a simplified Camera Control button, a red color option, variable aperture for at least one rear camera, web browsing via satellite, Apple-designed C2 modem for 5G, and more.
• iPhone 18 Pro Max: The same features rumored for the iPhone 18 Pro, but the Pro Max model might be slightly thicker.
• Foldable iPhone: 7.7-inch inner display with a reduced crease, 5.3-inch outer display, two rear cameras, one front camera, a Touch ID power button instead of Face ID, and more. iOS 27 is expected to be tailored for the foldable iPhone, allowing for side-by-side apps and other iPad-like multitasking functionality.

Apple Watches

• Apple Watch Series 12: A new chip, design changes (or not), and potentially Touch ID.
• Apple Watch Ultra 4: A new chip and potentially Touch ID.

iPads

• iPad 12: A16 chip → A18 chip or A19 chip with Apple Intelligence support.
• iPad mini: A17 Pro chip → A19 Pro or A20 Pro chip, an OLED display, a vibration-based speaker system, and a water-resistant design.

Macs

• Mac Studio: M4 Max and M3 Ultra chips → M5 Max and M5 Ultra chips.
• Mac mini: M4 and M4 Pro chips → M5 and M5 Pro chips.
• iMac: M4 chip → M5 chip, plus new color options.
• MacBook Pro with OLED display: A major redesign towards the end of 2026, with M6 Pro and M6 Max chips, an OLED display, a touch screen, a Dynamic Island, and a thinner design. On this device, which could also be named MacBook Ultra, macOS 27 is expected to offer a touch-friendly interface.

If iPhone pro has better camera than fold, than Im sticking with pro.

 

[Schizoid]

New iPads when are we thinking?

 

[hajime]

So the redesign MacBook Pro will certainly be out at the end of this year?

Waiting see the new iMacs. Hope the colors will remain bright. Also eager to see the first foldable from Apple. Don't think I will get one if it lacks FaceID and telephoto lens. A bright red color for the Pro iPhone will be great and hopefully Apple will continue to have bright options like the Orange on the 17 Pro. Love my Orange 17 Pro Max. Also waiting to see cellular connectivity on MacBooks.

Looking forward to see what will come as a some kind of replacement for us mini users?
Not in a hurry now 😀

My 13 min is still great, the only thing that can be a trouble was that my phone only has 128GB.
But I found out that what most took up space was YouTube cash.
Easiest is just to delete the YouTube app when it takes up to much GB, and reinstall it.
Now I have 77GB available of my 128GB.

Give me a small iPhone Flip Apple 🙏
Otherwise I’m all good with my Apple gears,

I really can't see an Apple TV with a 'built in" camera. The best place for an ATV is very likely not the best place for a camera. Now a USB port that can be used for a camera (as well as other things) sounds realistic.

Very excited to see how the foldable iphone or iFold will look

Apple hate ports. It’ll be wireless. a seperate product with a seperate price to match.

Wireless doesn't make sense because it would have to be plugged into power of some sort so there's a wire anyway.

 

[HouseLannister]

Now for my pessimist predictions:
No MacBook Ultra this year
Security cam and doorbell are canceled
iMac is discontinued
If the folding phone even launches this year, it is instantly sold out — super supply constrained

My Apple TVs have always been hidden in cabinets. They are not designed to be seen, or to watch people.
I would be very surprised.
I think Apple should focus on products that would make... sense. They just need to read online forums to find what people actually want, or need ! It would be a good starting point...

yeah, on some of my TVs the ATV is zip tied to the mount behind the TV. I think Apple by and large DOES listen people and know what makes sense which is why I doubt they will put a camera IN the ATV box.

Apple, I ask you please just give me 8 more emojis

 

[JohnC1959]

Apple, please just give me 8 more emojis

There are now exactly 10 zillion emojis. I use about 10 🙂

 

[Daws]

Where is the iCloth 2?

 

[VineRider]

OLED iPad mini with pro motion and I'm in!!!

 

[ry-guy]

I’m just here for the IPad mini update. Cmon apple!

 

[Mac Fly (film)]

No one knows for sure. This is the current timeline.

Apple branded home exercise equipment would be appreciated. If they don't want to do it all by themselves, then they should partner with other companies to co-brand it. It can sync with apple watch, iPhone, iPad, apple music + homepod etc. Exercise should be fun. Apple can work with industry partners to add some more fun to home exercise equipment. Infuse the marketing with music, apps and games. And feel free to market it *with* regular outdoor exercise. It doesn't have to stand completely on its own. But for many people in certain climates, home exercise equipment can help people to more easily reach their health and fitness goals. And apple should be more of a direct part of that.

And for people who don't have space at home for it, it should also be marketed to gyms and fitness chains so everyone can experience the new equipment.

One more vote for a better iPad mini. Please Apple. I know you can do it!

 

[Rinoa]

Why is the iPad mini still a thing, considering the iPhone Fold is coming out with the same form factor?
I want it so much, but I’m starting to lose hope.

 

[jz0309]

So the redesign MacBook Pro will certainly be out at the end of this year?

Even Gurman would answer that question with yes ...

OLED iPad mini with pro motion and I'm in!!!

I am not sure about pro motion. They keep it only for pro models.

One can dream! 😊
