- Renowned leaker Mark Gurman has detailed the likely launch windows for Apple products in 2025.
- First, we got to see the iPhone SE 4, iPad 11, and iPad Air 2025
- Later in the year, we’ll likely see the iPhone 17 series, including the iPhone 17 Air.
It’s been thought for a while that Apple might be set for another busy year, with talk of an iPhone 17 Air and iPhone SE 4 alongside the company’s annual launches, and now we have a clearer idea of what to expect. what to expect and when.
In a paid article from Bloomberg (via NotebookCheck), noted leaker Mark Gurman laid out a roadmap for Apple’s 2025 product launches, and first up, we’ll apparently get the iPhone SE 4.
This device – which we recently heard could launch as the iPhone 16E – will apparently have a similar design to the iPhone 14, complete with Face ID. Gurman also claims it will support Apple Intelligence, something we’ve heard before. These upgrades may result in a slight price increase over the iPhone SE (2022), but it should still be marketed as a budget iPhone.
It should land in the first or early second quarter, and either next to it or shortly afterward we could get the iPad 11, according to Gurman. This one would have an A17 Pro chipset (just like the iPhone 15 Pro) and 8GB of RAM, a combination that will likely be enough to power Apple Intelligence features.
An influx of Air
Then in the spring (so probably between the beginning of March and the end of May), Apple will apparently launch a new iPad Air, which Gurman says will feature an M4 chipset, bringing it closer to the current iPad Pro models. This list could also launch alongside new Magic Keyboards.
Then we come to Apple’s biggest launch of the year, with the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPhone 17 Air (or maybe just iPhone Air) . The last of these will apparently use Apple’s first in-house modem, be equipped with an A19 chipset, and have a single-lens camera.
That could be it for phones and tablets this year, although Gurman adds that a new iPad Pro equipped with an M5 chipset could launch in late 2025 or early 2026, so it’s possible Apple closes out the year with that.
So that’s a lot of devices supposed to be on the way. If we include the iPad Pro and exclude the Magic Keyboards, that’s eight distinct new Apple devices we could see in 2025, and once you factor in the likely multiple sizes in which the iPad Air and iPad Pro could be launched, this number rises to at least 10.
