No More 2024 Releases
Apple refreshed the iMac, Mac mini, and MacBook Pro in late October, and no additional products are set to debut in 2024. The next new Apple devices will be released in the spring of 2025.
2025 Product Refreshes
M4 Mac updates will continue into 2025, and will be spread out throughout the year. We'll also see new iPhones and Apple Watch models in 2024.
- MacBook Air - Apple plans to refresh the 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air models sometime in spring 2025, updating them with M4 chips. Design changes are not expected, with the focus to be on the chip refresh. Spring 2025 ranges from March 20 to June 20.
- Low-cost iPad - Apple is working on an 11th-generation iPad with a faster chip and support for Wi-Fi 6E. It is expected in 2025.
- Mac Studio - The Mac Studio was updated with M2 Max and M2 Ultra chips in June 2023, and it sounds like Apple will skip the M3 chips in the desktop machine. Current rumors suggest the Mac Studio will be updated in early 2025. The Mac Studio will likely get M4 Max and M4 Ultra chips, keeping in line with the current options.
- Mac Pro - Apple plans to update the Mac Pro sometime in late 2025. It will be equipped with the highest-end version of the M4 chip, which is codenamed "Hidra," and it could be either an "Ultra" or "Extreme" M4 chip. The Mac Pro is also expected to support up to 512GB Unified Memory.
- Apple Watch SE - Apple didn't refresh the Apple Watch SE in 2024, and a new model won't be coming until 2025. The next Apple Watch SE is expected to feature a plastic casing.
- iPhone SE - The iPhone SE will see an update in 2025, and it is expected to feature a 6.1-inch OLED display and an iPhone 14-like design. It may be the first Apple device with an Apple 5G modem.
- iPhone 17 - There are four new iPhones coming in 2025, but the Plus is going away. Instead, Apple will debut a new model that is more of an iPhone 17 "Slim" or "Air."
- Apple Watch Series 11 - Apple will refresh the Apple Watch in 2025, but what's coming isn't yet known.
Products With Unknown Release Dates
There are several new products in the works that don't yet have specific release dates associated with them at this time.
- Apple TV 4K - A new Apple TV 4K with a faster A16 processor was originally said to be coming in the first half of 2024, but more recent rumors have indicated a launch is not imminent.
- Home Hub Device - Rumors suggest Apple is working on a smart home display that would serve as a central hub for controlling smart home products, and it could launch as soon as 2024.
- New Display - There have been multiple rumors of a Pro Display XDR successor, but there's no word on when an update might come.
Further in the Future
- iMac Pro - Apple could introduce a larger 32-inch iMac, replacing the previously discontinued 27-inch iMac and iMac Pro at some point. Apple's plans continue to be unclear, and it's not clear if and when a larger iMac will see a launch.
- Foldable iPhone - Apple is allegedly working on a foldable iPhone that might be between 7.5 and 8 inches, with a launch date slated for 2027 at the earliest.
- Foldable iPad/Mac - Before we ever get a foldable iPhone, Apple will introduce some kind of foldable notebook and perhaps a foldable iPad. Current rumors suggest that Apple is working on a 17-to-20-inch MacBook that has a foldable display, but it won't come out for several years yet.
- Vision Pro 2 - Apple is working on a new Vision Pro, or multiple new models. Rumors are a little mixed right now, but Apple seems to want a successor for the current model and also a lower-cost version that would be closer in price to the iPhone.
What's Already Been Announced in 2024
This is everything that Apple has released in 2024 to date.
February 2024 Vision Pro Debut
In February 2024, Apple released the Vision Pro headset in the United States, marking the company's entrance into its first new product category since 2015 when the Apple Watch came out.
