Over the past five years, Apple has overhauled its entire product range, including transitioning the Mac from Intel to its own processors, introducing the tough Apple Watch Ultra, adding a new Plus model to the iPhone lineup and then dropping it to introduced the iPhone Air. It also introduced a brand-new product category – the Vision Pro headset.
In 2025 so far we’ve seen the introduction of the iPhone 16e, and the iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max and the brand new, super slim, iPhone Air. Is more change coming before the end of 2025? It looks like it: the M5 chip is said to be coming to the MacBook Pro and iPad Pro, a new HomePod, Apple TV and the mysterious HomeHub could launch, and we may see the long overdue Mac Pro update.
In this article, we take a look at what new products we expect Apple to launch in the remainder of 2025 and beyond. We have investigated every rumor and trend we could find to bring you our predictions. Read on to find out what could be in store.

Read: M5 iPad Pro: Everything you need to know.
Coming in 2026…

The M4 Macs have arrived, so now Apple will be looking to roll out the M5 chip to the MacBook Pro. But there is one Mac still waiting for an M4: the Mac Pro.
- MacBook Pro: M5, M5 Pro and M5 Max chips. Coming October 2025.
- Mac Pro: M4 Ultra or M4 Extreme with improved Neural Engine for enhanced AI capabilities. Thunderbolt 5. Coming late 2025.

Apple Home products coming in 2025/2026

If Apple was never to innovate away from the products it makes right now it could be left behind as technology progresses. It’s no surprise therefore that the company is working on various new areas. We don’t expect these to land in 2025, but rumors suggest that some of them still could arrive sooner rather than later.
- HomePod with screen: A screen would make the HomePod infinitely more usable, we really hope this rumor materializes. Coming late 2025 or 2026.
- New Apple TV: An update that will bring Apple Intelligence to the set top box. Coming late 2025 or 2026.
- HomeHub: There are claims that Apple has big plans for the smart home and is working on a number of HomeHub related products including an iPad like smart display that allow you to control your home devices vis HomeOS software and a device said to mount a camera on a robot arm that can follow you around! Coming late 2025 or 2026.
New iPhones in 2026

What’s next for the iPhone?
Coming in 2026…
- iPhone 17e: The iPhone 17e isn’t expected until early 2026. The iPhone 16e was introduced in February 2025, so an update isn’t likely before it is a year old. Coming Spring 2026.
- The iPhone 18 Pro could launch in September 2026, but Apple could delay the iPhone 18 and release that handset alongside the iPhone 18e in the spring of 2027, according to some reports.
- There’s possibly one more thing coming in 2026: A folding iPhone!

Apple updated all the Apple Watches in September 2025. Launching the Apple Watch Series 11 a new Apple Watch Ultra and a new Apple Watch SE. In 2026 Apple may only update the Apple Watch Series.

The AirPods Max has only had minor updates since it launched a few years ago, but the next generation has yet to materialize. Will they get a full update in 2026?
- Read: New AirPods Max rumors for more information.
Other Apple products coming from Apple
- Cheaper Vision Pro: Apple is said to be at work on two updated models: a cheaper Vision Pro, and another high-end model. There may be as many as four new AR/VR products coming. At any rate an M5 powered Vision Pro is said to be launching soon.
Apple products that (probably) won’t launch…
- Apple Car: If you were hoping for a physical Apple Car prepare to be disappointed. Apple has cancelled the Apple Car project after about a decade of development. But this doesn’t mean there is no future for Apple’s car-related research. An update to CarPlay could takes things beyond maps and music, giving users complete control over things like climate control. Read: The Apple Car is dead. Where does that leave Apple’s auto ambitions?
