Apple just wrapped up its iPhone 17 launch event last week. While that was a jam-packed (and incredibly fast-paced) keynote, the company still has another 10 product launches in the short term, with half of them launching by the end of the year.
Remaining 2025 launches
There were a number of product launches anticipated at this year’s September keynote that didn’t quite come to fruition. Those products should still launch by the end of the year though, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman – with some of them coming as early as next month.
M5 iPad Pro
First things first is an iPad Pro refresh with Apple’s new M5 chip. With M5, you should expect many of the same efficiency gains seen in A19 Pro, just at a higher scale. The new iPad Pro should also come with a second front-facing camera, this one in portrait orientation. It’s possible we’ll see iPhone 17’s new square selfie camera sensor make an appearance on this iPad Pro, though that’s just my personal speculation.
M5 Vision Pro
There isn’t much to write about here. Apple is working on a refreshed version of its Vision Pro headset, bringing it up to speed with the M5 chipset – up from its current M2 chipset. Nothing about the hardware should be changing, so don’t expect anything lighter – though it might come with a new strap out of the box, and it could debut in Space Black.
AirTag 2
This product has been rumored for quite a long time, but Apple is working on an updated version of its popular item tracker with the U2 chip. We actually just saw the U2 chip debut in AirPods Pro 3, and it should similarly bring enhanced precision finding functionality to AirTag.
