Apple is preparing to launch its first products of 2025 next week, according to reports from Mark Gurman.
The biggest announcement will be the new iPhone SE 4, along with the long-awaited Powerbeats Pro 2. Other surprises, like new MacBooks and iPads, could also be coming soon.
iPhone SE 4: Big Upgrade for Apple’s Budget iPhone
Apple’s iPhone SE 4 is finally arriving. The last SE model launched in 2022, so an upgrade is long overdue. The new model will feature:
- An OLED display with edge-to-edge design
- Face ID and a notch
- A18 chip for better performance
- USB-C charging instead of Lightning
- 8GB RAM for smoother multitasking
- 48MP camera for high-quality photos
- Apple’s own 5G modem for faster connectivity
These features were first introduced in the iPhone 16, so getting them in a budget-friendly iPhone is exciting.
The current iPhone SE costs $429, but the new model may start at $499. Even with a price increase, it will be the best choice for those wanting an affordable iPhone.
Powerbeats Pro 2: New Design and More Features
Apple’s Powerbeats Pro 2 is also expected to launch next week. The new earbuds have been spotted on athletes like Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy, adding to the anticipation.
Leaks suggest the new Powerbeats will feature:
- A slimmer design for a better fit
- New colors like purple, orange, and light brown
- A heart-rate sensor, which could also come to AirPods Pro 3 later this year
The launch date is expected to be February 11.
More Surprises? New MacBooks and iPads Could Be Coming
Apple might not stop at the iPhone SE 4 and Powerbeats Pro 2. Reports suggest that other devices could be launched soon, including:
- M4 MacBook Air – Stock for current models is running low, hinting at a new release.
- M3 iPad Air – The M2 iPad Air is also hard to find, suggesting an upgrade is near.
- New 11th-gen iPad – Apple’s base iPad is due for an update.
If these launches happen, Apple may spread them out over multiple days, similar to its M4 Mac launch in October.
A Big Week Ahead for Apple Fans
Apple’s upcoming product launches will make next week exciting. Whether it’s the iPhone SE 4, Powerbeats Pro 2, or surprise Mac and iPad releases, Apple has a lot in store.
