Apple isn’t quite yet finished with its 2025 product launches yet, and there should still be a few big launches in the coming weeks. Nevertheless, we’ll be looking forward to next year’s product launches – where Apple has a lot more in store.
New Studio Display
This one is likely the most minor mention on the list, but given Apple’s track record, it’s a bigger deal than most would think.
Apple doesn’t make many displays. They launched the Pro Display XDR in 2019, and the Studio Display in 2022. That’s it for recent history.
However, Apple is widely anticipated to debut a new Mac external display (or two) early next year. We don’t know many details, other than the fact that they’ll come in 27-inch display options, and will likely equip miniLED panels. It should also offer an A19 Pro chip, up from the A13 Bionic in the current Studio Display.
Apple home hub
This product has been rumored for quite a long time. For the most part, it’s been sitting on the backburner because the product relies on Apple Intelligence Siri being a thing, and well, it isn’t.
In short, Apple is working on a bit of a bit of a ‘HomePad’ of sorts. It’ll offer a 7-inch display with an all new OS known as homeOS. It’ll give you granular controls over your smart home, and be an excellent smart assistant. Plus, it’ll equip the A18 chip. Think Google Nest Hub or Amazon Echo Show, but Apple.
Assuming Apple figures out their AI Siri woes sometime next year, this product should also debut in 2026.
MacBook Pro redesign
For the first time since 2021, Apple is reportedly redesigning the MacBook Pro once again.
With the new 2026 MacBook Pro, Apple is prioritizing a thinner design – as well as introducing OLED to the MacBook line to the first time. Other rumors also indicate that we’ll see a touchscreen, as well as potential support for 5G cellular.
If everything pans out, 2026 could be a huge year for the MacBook Pro. This’ll also ship with the M6 family of chips, likely Apple’s first 2nm processor.
First foldable iPhone
Following the iPhone Air, Apple has another major iPhone innovation planned just 12 months later – with the introduction of iPhone Fold.
This device is rumored to be more of a tablet-style foldable, rather than a clamshell. It’ll have a 7.8-inch inner display and a 5.5-inch outer display, placing it on the smaller end of foldable devices. Apple is also reportedly very focused on making sure the device doesn’t have a crease.
Additionally, this device will likely utilize Touch ID instead of Face ID, and be made from a titanium frame.
Cheaper MacBook
Lastly, Apple is expected to introduce a brand new entry-level MacBook. It’ll sit below the MacBook Air in the lineup, equipping an A18 Pro chip and a 13-inch display. Reportedly, Apple is going to have some fun colors on this MacBook model, and it’ll potentially start at $699. It’s unclear what Apple plans on cutting to achieve this price.
When it launches sometime next year, it’ll be Apple’s first MacBook to use an A-series chipset.
