Apple is gearing up for a busy spring 2025 with a host of new products set to debut, including some major updates to its iPhone, iPad, and MacBook lines. After wrapping up its announcements for the year with the M4 Mac lineup, which includes the M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max chips powering devices like the iMac, Mac mini, and MacBook Pro, the tech giant is turning its focus to several highly anticipated devices for next spring.

One of the most notable releases expected is the iPhone SE 4, which marks a significant update to Apple’s most affordable smartphone. This iteration of the SE is set to feature a modern design, likely modeled after the iPhone 14, and will ditch the home button that has defined earlier SE models. The iPhone SE 4 will also be the first device in this line to feature an in-house modem, ending Apple’s reliance on Qualcomm for cellular connectivity. Another major change will be the inclusion of a USB-C port, aligning the device with Apple’s other recent hardware updates.

Alongside the iPhone SE 4, Apple’s entry-level tablet, the iPad 11, is expected to get its first update in over two years. While there might not be significant design changes, the inclusion of Apple Intelligence (a form of AI integration) could be the standout feature. The new iPad will likely be powered by the A18 chip, further improving performance over its predecessor. This update would mark a notable shift in the capabilities of the budget-friendly iPad line.

In the MacBook lineup, Apple is expected to refresh its MacBook Air with the new M4 chip. While this refresh will likely be modest—focusing primarily on the chip upgrade—the MacBook Air could also feature some enhanced camera capabilities, potentially adding the Center Stage feature seen on the latest MacBook Pro models. The MacBook Air remains one of Apple’s most popular laptops, and the M4 update is expected to further cement its appeal, especially for those seeking an affordable yet powerful portable device.

Meanwhile, the iPad Air will likely see an upgrade with the introduction of the M3 chip next spring. This small refresh may also include an updated Magic Keyboard designed specifically for the iPad Air, improving the device’s functionality for those who rely on it for work or productivity.

In addition to these updates, Apple is set to release its first smart home display. This product will mark the company’s foray into the smart home space with a display, serving as an enhanced version of its HomePod. The new smart display is expected to be both wall-mountable and attachable to speakers, with a compact 6-inch square screen. It will integrate Apple Intelligence, making it a key part of the company’s expanding ecosystem of smart devices.

Apple’s spring 2025 product lineup also includes a possible update to the AirTag with a newer ultra-wideband chipset. However, details remain scarce on this refresh, and other larger devices like the Mac Studio and Mac Pro are not expected until mid-2025.

As we look ahead to spring, the tech world is buzzing with anticipation for these new Apple releases. With devices ranging from the affordable iPhone SE 4 to the more premium iPad Air and MacBook updates, Apple is positioning itself to meet the growing demand for high-performance, accessible technology. Additionally, the rollout of iOS 18.4, which is expected to include the final suite of Apple Intelligence features first introduced at WWDC24, will further enhance the user experience across its devices.
