Apple still has surprises in October

iPad Pro M5, AirTag 2 and HomePod mini 2 are devices that Apple is likely to launch in October.

iPad Pro M5 . According to Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman, Apple is preparing to launch the iPad Pro with the M5 chip as early as October, becoming the first device to use the M5 chip. The company plans to add a selfie camera on the top bezel (when holding the device vertically), in addition to the current horizontal camera. The video shared by the Wylsacom (Russia) channel on September 30 reveals some other improvements on the device such as the N1 chip, 16 GB RAM for some memory versions. Photo: @Wylsacom/YouTube .

Vision Pro M5 . In mid-July, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said Apple was developing a new version of Vision Pro glasses. The device is likely to use the M5 processor chip instead of the M2, with other parameters unchanged. According to Gurman, the product will come with a new bracelet, but the real Vision Pro 2 is likely to appear in 2027. A thinner and lighter version of the glasses will also not appear until 2026 or 2027. Photo: MobileSyrup .

AirTag 2. Rumors about AirTag 2 have been around for a long time, as the first generation was launched in April 2021. The device is likely to use the same U2 chip as the AirPods Pro 3, which helps with precise positioning and increased tracking capabilities. Bloomberg 's writer predicts that the Precision Finding feature on AirTag 2 can operate at a maximum distance of 60 m, 3 times longer than its predecessor. The product's speaker will be harder to remove, reducing the possibility of being exploited for tracking like the first generation AirTag. Photo: Tom's Guide .

New Apple TV 4K . After 3 years of launching the latest version, Apple is rumored to upgrade Apple TV at the end of the year. The device is expected to be equipped with the A17 Pro chip, supporting Apple Intelligence and an improved version of Siri. Similar to the iPhone 17 and iPhone Air, the product may use the N1 chip developed by Apple itself, supporting new protocols such as Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6 and Thread. According to Gurman, Apple is also developing a FaceTime camera, although it is not known whether it will be equipped on the next generation or not. Photo: The Verge .

HomePod mini 2. Based on rumors, the next generation of HomePod mini is expected to upgrade the processor chip to S9, also to serve Apple Intelligence and the new version of Siri. Similar to the Apple TV 4K, the product can be equipped with the N1 chip. The next improvement comes from the U2 chip for features that require close contact, along with some new color options.

MacBook Pro M5 . Apple is also planning to develop a new generation of MacBook Pro with the M5 chip. Initially, rumors predicted the product would launch in early 2026, but in the latest Power On newsletter, Gurman said the fall introduction schedule is still possible. After the launch, the MacBook Pro M5 will be the last generation to keep the current design. Starting with the M6 ​​series, the company is expected to switch to a new design, using an OLED screen.

MacBook Air M5 . Similar to the MacBook Pro, the MacBook Air M5 is likely to only upgrade the processor chip. In fact, rumors about the M5 are still quite vague. According to Gurman, the product is being developed with the internal code names J813 and J815, and is expected to go into mass production soon along with the MacBook Pro M5 and two new display models.

According to 9to5Mac , one model will be a successor to the Studio Display with a Mini LED panel. If not launched in October, the new laptops and displays are expected to be introduced early next year. Photo: PCMag .
