Apple’s future lineup is always an exciting topic of conversation among the tech community. We are always hearing about what Apple is doing for its next iPhone, what new tech Apple is exploring and what to expect from future Apple products.

Apart from getting updates, these rumours and reports somehow help us keep our expectations in check.

The latest report now sheds light on what Apple is planning for its new iPhone, iPad, Mac and Watch models.

Here’s everything we can gather from recent reports.

In his most recent newsletter, Bloomberg’s reputable Apple reporter Mark Gurman shares that Apple is always working on its upcoming range that includes new products along with upgrades to its current lineup of iPhones and more.

According to Gurman, Apple is still focusing on developing product ranges other than iPhones.

The company is working and investing heavily in home products and smart glasses.

However, the company is not moving away from its core. Gurman writes, “In the nearer term, Apple will be focused on gradual improvements to its existing products. That means making Macs with faster chips, thinner designs and touch screens. Its iPads will become more versatile, with larger displays and foldable models. Apple Watches will get blood pressure and glucose monitoring. And the company will try to make its iPhones even more indispensable, with new designs, cameras and AI features.”

Gurman further reiterates some of the information shared earlier, which includes the following –

• New designs of iPhone including iPhone 17 Air and iPhone 17 Plus with cameras and AI features
• iPad with larger displays
• iPad foldable are also expected
• Mac with touch screens, thinner builds and faster chips
• Apple Watch with new health sensors for blood pressure and glucose

Some of these changes such as touch screens in the Mac and foldable iPads sound exciting. If successful, these will be significant changes in the overall Apple product portfolio.

Meanwhile, Gurman also shared the timeline for Apple’s 2nd generation of Apple Vision Pro.

We recently reported that supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has hinted that Apple is delaying a cheaper Apple Vision headset to concentrate on the next Vision Pro upgrade lineup for next year.

Now according to Gurman, the next-generation Apple Vision Pro is expected to be launched sometime between September 2025 and April 2026.

Certain reports have indicated that Apple is planning on a massive upgrade for Vision Pro 2 with the upcoming M5 chip.

The current model features an M2 chip, which was the latest when released but now is quite outdated due to the release of the M3 and M4 chips.

As for the design, the Apple Vision Pro 2 will most likely be similar to the current Apple Vision Pro. Bloomberg report mentions, “Apple is working on several ideas for its Vision headset line, but at least one version of the second-generation Vision Pro — assuming it’s released — will look almost entirely like the current design. The big changes are internal, including a processor upgrade.”

Some reports have noted that something similar like the new Wide and Ultra Wide display options recently released in the Mac Virtual Display in visionOS 2.2 could be a great addition to the Apple Vision Pro mode.
