September’s iPhone Event brought the iPhone 14 series, three new Apple Watches and a new set of AirPods Pro. Then in October Apple launched (without an event) a new 10.9-inch iPad and new iPad Pro models.
That seems to be it for 2022, give or take a few TV shows, game and app updates expected in December, but Apple has many more new products in the pipeline, including some that are expected to arrive in the first quarter of 2023.

New Macs
It’s now about two and a half years since Apple revealed, in June 2020, that it would be transitioning all its Macs from Intel processors to its own silicon within two years. Apple’s already updated many of its machines, including the MacBook Air, Mac mini, 24-inch iMac, 13-inch MacBook Pro, 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro, and launched the Mac Studio. Plus at WWDC in June 2022 Apple introduced the M2 chip in the MacBook Air and 13in MacBook Pro. Read Everything you need to know about the M2.
That still leaves the following Macs in need of an Apple silicon update. Here’s what we’re still expecting to arrive:
Mac mini
In a December 2021 Power On newsletter, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman indicated that there will be two new Mac minis coming in 2022. Alongside the M2 Mac mini, which surprisingly didn’t launch alongside the M2 MacBooks, Apple is said to be working on a new Mac mini with M2 Pro that will replace the Intel-powered Mac mini model that Apple kept in the line up. This new Mac mini didn’t arrive in 2022 after all, but it looks certain for 2023.
When? March 2023
MacBook Pro
If the Mac mini gains an M2 Pro chip the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro are likely to follow suit.
When? March 2023
iMac
A M2 iMac–and we hope an M2 Pro iMac–could/should be in the pipeline at Apple. Perhaps even the revival of the iMac Pro.
When? WWDC 2023
Mac Pro
Work is said to be underway on the Apple Silicon Mac Pro, which could feature an M2 Ultra or even an M2 Extreme.

When? WWDC 2023
15-inch MacBook Air
Rumors of a larger MacBook Air have been circulating for some time and 2023 could be the year we finally see a bigger MacBook Air.
When? WWDC 2023
New iPads

We got a peek at iPadOS 16 at WWDC and the final version of iPadOS 16 is expected in October (read about what could be coming in iPadOS 16). Here’s the new hardware we expect to arrive alongside the OS update:
iPad mini
A new iPad mini – seventh generation – could be coming in 2023.

When? Fall 2023
Bigger iPad Pro
There could be a 14-inch iPad Pro coming from Apple. Mark Gurman predicts that Apple will release a 14-inch iPad Pro in 2023.
When? Fall 2023
New iPhones
The arrival of a new set of iPhones in September 2023 is highly likely, but will other new iPhones arrive earlier in 2023?

iPhone 15
The iPhone 15 (and Plus, Pro and Pro Max) is likely to arrive, like clockwork, in September 2023.

When? September 2023
iPhone SE Plus
This is a long shot, but a few years ago now there were rumors that Apple could launch a bigger version of the iPhone SE Plus – which would mean that those who want a big iPhone and a Home button would have an option.

When? TBC
New categories
If Apple was never to innovate away from the products it makes right now it could be left behind as technology progresses. It’s no surprise therefore that the company is working on various new areas. We don’t expect all of these to land in 2023, but rumors suggest that some of them still could arrive sooner rather than later.

HomePod with screen
This might not arrive in 2022, but we do hope there is some truth in the rumours that Apple is working on a HomePod with a screen. We’ve always said that a screen would make the HomePod infinitely more usable, but perhaps we are the only ones who hate having to talk to our speaker.
A screen would extend the uses of the HomePod beyond audio into visual – so you could watch podcasts and news reports and YouTube videos, but most usefully communicate via FaceTime.

When? Spring 2023

AR Glasses/Mixed Reality Headset
Apple’s made clear its interest in augmented reality, and we may hear more about its plans to make AR Glasses. The rumors suggest that we could see Apple’s AR or VR headset product in 2023. Apple’s upcoming xrOS may even be the start of a whole new ecosystem of devices.
We hope that Apple will show off something at WWDC 2023 in an attempt to get developers to design apps for the new device, but we expecting to see a final product yet.

Take a look at Apple games console rumors.
When? Fall 2023
