Apple’s Massive 2025 Product Drop Starts This Fall

With the second half of 2025 underway, Apple is gearing up for a packed fall season. In addition to iOS 26 and other major software updates, over 15 new Apple products are expected to launch before year’s end. Here's a breakdown of what’s coming.

iPhone 17 Lineup: Big Changes Ahead

Apple is shaking up the iPhone lineup in a big way this year, with the introduction of a new model and potential branding changes:

  • iPhone 17: Larger display, better front camera, and more polish overall.
  • iPhone 17 Air: A new ultra-thin model replacing the Plus — sleek design with a few trade-offs.
  • iPhone 17 Pro: A19 Pro chip, camera upgrades, and faster memory.
  • iPhone 17 Pro Max (or Ultra?): Larger battery in a thicker body — and possibly a new name.

M5 Macs and iPads

The powerful M5 chip makes its debut this fall in select Mac and iPad models:

  • M5 MacBook Pro: Performance boost with M5, M5 Pro, and M5 Max chip options.
  • M5 iPad Pro: Optimized for iPadOS 26 with multitasking improvements.
  • Mac Pro: Still based on M3 Ultra, but rumors suggest a chance for a redesigned case.

Major Wearables Upgrades

Apple is also rolling out significant updates for its wearables:

  • Apple Watch Ultra 3: Satellite features, 5G RedCap support, and hypertension tracking.
  • Apple Watch Series 11: Same design, but adds blood pressure detection.
  • Apple Watch SE 3: Modernized internals with a new S-class chip.
  • AirPods Pro 3: Better noise cancellation and a new H3 chip — though it might slip into early 2026.

Smart Home and TV Devices

Apple hasn’t forgotten the smart home, with at least two (possibly three) new devices on the way:

  • New Apple TV 4K: Likely with Apple Intelligence and a faster A-series chip.
  • HomePod mini 2: Better wireless tech and improved ecosystem support.
  • ‘HomePad’: A smart display-like hub running homeOS — timing still uncertain.

Other Notable Updates

A few more familiar Apple products are also getting refreshes:

  • AirTag 2: Better tracking range and stronger privacy protections.
  • M5 Vision Pro: Internal spec boost with M5 chip.
  • Studio Display 2: Same 27-inch screen, now with MiniLED and improved camera.

Bonus: Will There Be a Pro Display XDR 2?

One potential wildcard: the long-rumored Pro Display XDR 2, which could debut alongside the new Mac Pro. While not confirmed, it's still a possibility before year’s end.

Final Thoughts

From iPhones to Macs to wearables and smart home gear, Apple’s 2025 hardware roadmap is stacked. Whether you're looking for power, portability, or smart home upgrades, there’s something big on the way this fall.
