Apples first product of the year, the iPhone 16e, debuted this week. But there are five more launches expected in the next few weeks and months. Heres a look at whats coming.M4 MacBook AirApples most popular Mac has had a long wait for an M4 upgrade, but that wait should be over soon. A new M4 MacBook Air is expected to launch in the next few weeks in 13-inch and 15-inch sizes. Some of the feature highlights include:16GB base RAM, configurable up to 32GBsupport for two external displays with the lid open12MP Center Stage cameraimproved battery life thanks to M4s efficiency gainsnano-texture display optionNo design changes are expected for the M4 model, but it should prove a compelling upgrade nonethelessespecially for M1 users.The current iPad Air has only been with us since last May, but Apple already has an update coming soon. Per the companys quarterly earnings, it seems the last iPad Air has proven especially popularperhaps due to offering both 11-inch and 13-inch sizes.The next iPad Air will feature Apples M3 chip, a nice bump from the current M2. Its also expected to be compatible with a redesigned Magic Keyboard accessory, and will likely feature some other smaller enhancements too.The base iPad is long overdue for an upgrade. It was the only iPad not to be updated in 2024, and it wasnt even changed in 2023 either. The 10th generation model launched in October 2022, so its definitely time.Apple is expected to give its new 11th generation iPad an A17 Pro chip, like the latest iPad mini has, which will enable full Apple Intelligence support. It should support the new Magic Keyboard being built for iPad Air as well. Finally, per one report the iPad may gain the new C1 modem for 5G connectivity.HomePadThe new product Im most excited about is a brand new Home device that Ive been calling HomePad. According to Mark Gurmans reporting, the 7-inch square-like smart display will be a mix between an iPad and HomePod. It will serve as a smart home command center, but also offer tons of other functionality such as:Siri powered by Apple Intelligencethe brand new homeOS softwareFaceTime supportSafari, Music, Notes, and other Apple appswidgets like the iPhones StandBy modeand much morePending the final details, Im already planning to buy several HomePads to place around my home. Currently were expecting a release in April or May.AirTag 2Finally, AirTag 2 rounds out Apples new products expected in the months ahead.The original AirTag has been around nearly four years, debuting in April 2021. Its successor is highly anticipated and expected to include three primary upgrades:better rangemore modern wireless chipimproved privacy featuresOn this last point, Apples expected to make the speaker harder to remove, and hopefully implement other changes to combat misuse.Which new Apple products are you most excited about?
