Apple just wrapped up its fall releases, here's whats coming next spring - 9to5Mac

Apple just finished releasing the initial M4 Mac lineup, with M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max going into the iMac, Mac mini, and MacBook Pro. Those are likely the last announcements for the year, but there's still a lot in the pipeline for next spring. Here's everything we're expecting.

Perhaps the biggest announcement for next spring will be Apple's most affordable new iPhone: the iPhone SE. This is expected to be the biggest upgrade to the iPhone SE since it debuted in 2016, bringing it up to date with the modern iPhone lineup.

It's expected to finally be dropping the home button, with a new form factor similar to the iPhone 14. iPhone SE 4 will also be Apple's first iPhone to integrate an in-house modem, transitioning away from Qualcomm. It'll also adopt the USB-C connector.

Apple's cheapest iPad is likely going to get its first update in over 2 years next spring, with the main focus being Apple Intelligence support. The last iPad refresh brought the first redesign to the base iPad since Apple started making budget iPads, so there likely won't be any design changes.

If it does support Apple Intelligence, it'll likely be with an A18 chip, although we don't know for certain. Learn more about Apple's cheapest iPad in our dedicated guide:

Although this is going to be a smaller refresh (especially now that Apple added 16GB of RAM to the existing M2 and M3 MacBook Air models), Apple will still be adopting the new M4 chip in the MacBook Air next spring.

We don't expect any changes outside of the chip upgrade, though it would be cool to get the new Center Stage camera that the latest MacBook Pros have. You can learn more in our dedicated guide:

This is also going to be a small refresh, but the iPad Air will likely get an update next spring, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. We're currently uncertain on what chip the next iPad Air will get, although we do know there'll be an all new Magic Keyboard just for iPad Air.

Apple is also expected to release an updated AirTag model, likely with a newer ultra wide band chipset. Other than that, it's unclear what'll change.

As for products like the Mac Studio and Mac Pro, those aren't expected until around mid 2025.
