13 Products Apple Will Launch in 2025
Now that 2025 is underway, that means one thing: new Apple products are coming our way. Even if the company hasn't confirmed anything yet, we can assume that there are a bunch of Apple products in the works that we'll see this year.
Not only that, but thanks to many rumors and leaks, we already have a pretty solid idea of all the products Apple will upgrade in 2025. If those rumors are true, we're in for a treat.
Over a dozen Apple products might launch in 2025. Some of them are already expected, but there are a few surprises that you might not even know about.
Prepare your wallets and read on for 13 products Apple will launch in 2025.
iPhone 17
This one is a given at this point; we're all sure that Apple will launch a brand new iPhone 17 lineup near the end of the year that's better than last year's iPhones but worse than next year's.
That said, there might be a surprise for the iPhone 17 this year. Instead of having a regular iPhone 17 Plus, which tends to be the lowest-selling iPhone, Apple might introduce a new iPhone 17 "Air" model.
This new model will be the thinnest iPhone yet, rumored to be only 6mm thick. Besides its thin body, the iPhone 17 Air is expected to feature a 6.6-inch display, slightly smaller than the 6.7-inch current iPhone 16 Plus display, although it might only get a single-lens camera. On the inside, the iPhone 17 Air will feature the same A19 chip as the iPhone 17.
This iPhone Air is said to replace the iPhone Plus, which means it should cost around the same price as the current iPhone 16 Plus.
For the iPhone 17 Pro models, it is rumored that Apple will change the camera design and might use both glass and titanium for the body.
Apple Watch Series 11
This is another product that we're entirely sure Apple will launch in 2025. We'll likely see the new Apple Watch Series 11 arrive alongside the new iPhone 17 models.
We're not exactly sure that this Apple Watch will bring many changes on the outside. Unfortunately for Apple Watch fans who have waited for a redesign, this might not be our year either.
The good news is that we might see a new health feature that will be extremely useful for most of us. Apple is rumored to add a high blood pressure sensor to the Apple Watch Series 11, making it a must-have upgrade for many of us. Of course, this is still in the air, as Apple needs to get the feature to work correctly before adding it.
Apple Watch Ultra 3
If you watched the iPhone event in September 2024, you would have noticed that Apple didn't upgrade the Apple Watch Ultra last year. Instead, it only added a new color to the Apple Watch Ultra 2.
Fortunately, that might change in 2025, as many rumors suggest that Apple will launch the Apple Watch Ultra 3 this year.
We know of only a couple of new features. First, we expect Apple to use the same new health features the Apple Watch Series 11 will have. This means we hope to see a blood pressure monitor.
Second, there have been rumors that the Apple Watch Ultra 3 will support messages via satellite, like the iPhone 16. This will allow you to text even if you don't have a strong cellular connection nearby.
iPhone SE 4
If the rumors are correct, the iPhone SE 4 will be the Apple product with the most significant changes of the year. We might even see it really soon.
Rumor has it that Apple will redesign the iPhone SE's body to resemble the iPhone 14. This means that instead of the usual 4.7-inch display, we might get a much bigger 6.1-inch screen. Alongside the bigger body, we'll also see a larger battery, which is one of the biggest complaints about the current iPhone SE models.
That also means that Touch ID will be gone for good. Instead, Apple will use Face ID, which means that the notch will make a comeback.
The iPhone SE will continue to feature a single 48-megapixel camera lens on the back. Its camera will not be as good as the iPhone 16's, but it will be a more significant upgrade from the current model.
Last but not least, on the inside, the new iPhone SE is rumored to feature the A18 chip, which is the same as the iPhone 16. This is to help the iPhone SE support Apple Intelligence. For the same reason, the iPhone SE is said to feature 8GB of RAM. Additionally, this new budget-friendly iPhone is said to feature Apple's first-ever 5G chip.
As for the release date, the new iPhone SE 4 is rumored to launch early in 2025. Previous iPhone SE models have come out in March, so we expect a similar release date.
Apple Watch SE
Another budget-friendly product rumored to be upgraded in 2025 is the Apple Watch SE. Unfortunately, the more affordable Apple Watch won't see many changes.
The most significant change rumored is that this new Apple Watch SE could feature a plastic casing. Besides that, it seems Apple won't make any substantial changes to this model. It will continue to be a good entry-level Apple Watch, but you'll need to spend more money if you want all the premium health features.
This Apple Watch model is rumored to launch alongside the regular Apple Watch Series 11 during Apple's September event.
M4 MacBook Air Models
This year, it is rumored that Apple will boost the new MacBook Air models with the M4 chip.
Design-wise, the MacBook Air isn't getting many new features, so expect the same design on both the 13-inch and 15-inch models but with the more powerful M4 chips.
M5 MacBook Pro
Apple is also planning on upgrading the current MacBook Pro models, albeit it will be a small upgrade that many current MacBook Pro users won't bother getting.
Rumor has it that Apple will keep the design and all other hardware features the same on the new MacBook Pros. Instead, it will focus on upgrading the processor to the M5 chip.
That said, if you're willing to wait, there are already rumors about the 2026 upgrade, which could feature an OLED display.
11th Generation iPad
The base iPad hasn't seen much love lately, especially since the more powerful iPads are getting more attention.
Fortunately, that might change in 2025, as Apple is getting ready to release the 11th-generation iPad.
Rumor has it that Apple will likely focus only on upgrading the internals of the base iPad while keeping its design the same, similar to what the company did with the iPad mini in 2024.
If this is true, we expect Apple to change the processor to an A17 Pro chip (or a souped-up A16) and bump the RAM to 8GB, which is the minimum requirement for the iPad to support Apple Intelligence.
While we don't have a precise date for this launch, we expect to see it in the first half of 2025.
Mac Pro
The Mac Pro isn't Apple's most popular product — mainly because of its price. Hence, the company doesn't upgrade it as often as other products.
However, it seems that Apple will launch a new Mac Pro in 2025 and make it as powerful as possible.
Like other Mac upgrades this year, the Mac Pro's upgrade is rumored to focus on its internals. More specifically, we expect this new Mac to feature the highest-end M4 chip, likely an M4 Ultra chip, or possibly even a newer and more powerful M4 "Hidra" chip we've heard rumors about.
Moreover, the new Mac Pro will likely support up to 512GB of Unified Memory.
Mac Studio
Alongside the new Mac Pro, Apple is also rumored to launch a new Mac Studio. However, unlike the other Mac upgrades of 2025, this one won't focus on design or hardware changes.
Instead, Apple is expected to also give it a boost to the latest M4 chips, with the possibility of using the M4 Ultra chip that Apple will most likely announce with this Mac or the Mac Pro. Additionally, this Mac will almost certainly gain Thunderbolt 5 ports, considering Apple already brought those to its higher-end Mac mini and MacBook Pro models last fall.
HomePod mini
It's been a while since Apple showed some love to the HomePod mini, but that might change in 2025.
According to rumors, Apple might launch the next-generation HomePod mini in 2025. The design will remain the same, but Apple will likely add new colors. On the inside, Apple might add the S9 chip from the Apple Watch Series 9, which will make the HomePod mini a lot faster. It's also expected to get the first-ever Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chips designed by Apple.
We don't have a specific release date for the HomePod mini at the time of this writing. However, the current HomePod mini launched in November so we might see a similar release date this time around.
AirPods Pro 3
Even though the AirPods Pro 2 have had many cool software updates, we haven't seen even a minor refresh since 2023 — and that was primarily to switch to USB-C.
So, the time is right for Apple to give us a new pair of AirPods Pro in 2025. According to some rumors, the third-generation AirPods Pro might get a new design. However, we don't know exactly what that design might look like.
We also expect better sound quality and an upgrade to Active Noise Cancellation and Adaptive Audio.
Last but not least, there have been rumors that Apple might add some health features to the AirPods Pro this time. If that's true, the AirPods Pro could theoretically keep track of your body temperature and heart rate.
AirTags 2
It's been quite a few years since Apple did something with the AirTags. Even though they're a useful product, it hasn't seen an upgrade since it first came out.
Fortunately, that might change in 2025. According to rumors, Apple might launch the second generation AirTags this year.
Unfortunately, we don't have many rumors about this new product yet. It seems like Apple will keep the same design, so you'll still need to buy a separate keychain.
But the good news is that Apple is said to add a new Ultra Wideband chip that will let you locate and track your AirTag at farther distances, as well as some improvements to the safety features that will hopefully prevent the AirTags from being used for illegal purposes.
