from priority to less priority

iPhone 6S plus - MUST
apple watch - semi MUST
iPad mini 4??? - it has to be a complete redesign for me to even consider.
iPad Pro - way down the priority list

Nothing except probably an iPad Air 3, assuming it gets the iP6 design which will be hot. Every one of my iDevices is actually current (iPhone 6, iPad Air 2, iPod nano 7G, iPod touch 5G, iPod classic 7G), and my mid-2010 MBP turd and 2008 24" LED ACD are working just fine, Time Capsule 2G too after breathing new life into it with a new HDD last year.
 
If I had the money, iPad Air 2 or possibly the 3. Don't have the money at the moment though, so it's a no. I'm pretty content where I am right now anyway, so no huge need to upgrade. This mini 2 just feels so underpowered with the A7 chip and I wanna get away from it fast. Plus Touch ID and better screen would be lovely. UI lag with iOS 8 on it is kinda annoying.

my ipad mini 2 is fine. the problem is that the mini 3 was such a joke of an update. that's the only reason why i skipped it. like i said, i will only consider if they do a complete redesign.
 
I spent too much money on a 6 and an iPad Air 2 back in November along with applecare for both devices, so maybe an :apple:Watch. Maybe.
 
if the rumors are true that the ipad mini 4 will get the air treatment, which is exact same form factor just thinner.. then I think i'll pass. I want a new form factor ala iphone 6.
 
iPhone 6S for my wife for sure
Probably iPhone 6s for me (I'll be selling off my old iPhones and should be able to afford an early upgrade)
Gonna let the watch thing play out to see if I will have a use for one of those in the future.
 
Maybe an iPad Mini 2 or 4 if it's enough of an upgrade. My mini 1 is getting long in the tooth. I'm not sure about an iPhone upgrade since I still like my 5, and it's running fine on 8.2. Apple Watch is a no for sure. No need for any Mac upgrades either.
 
Depending on how good a jump Apple provides from my current iPhone 5; I can see myself purchasing an iPhone 6S+/ 6+S.

If there is an updated Apple TV, that could get into my shopping list.
 
I plan to get a "Rev B" 5k iMac (current Mac is from 2011), assuming that the mythical xMac still doesn't appear. I already have an iPhone 6 so I'm not in the phone market, I don't use tablets, and I have no interest in a watch.
 
I have no definitive plans to buy any upgrades this year. My iPhone 5 is in pretty good shape and runs iOS 8 quite well, so I'm not feeling the need to run out and get the latest devices.

I'll be keeping an eye on iPhone 6S as a possible upgrade in 2016.
 
My Verizon contract will be up on Sep 25th of this year. Hopefully, by then Apple will unveil the new iPhones. I am hoping to get the bigger one whatever that will be called.
I am also waiting on an update to iMac 21.5"; however, I am not in rush as my custom built Windows PC still rocks and Windows 10 is shaping to be a great OS, so I might skip Mac desktop in favor of keeping my Windows machine.
 
Iphone 6s since my 3rd line will be up for subsidized upgrade. Macbook 12. Apple watch for my child. 2nd gen apple watch for myself, probably next year.
