However a key query stays: will there be any {hardware} bulletins too?
The reply to that query is probably going no. In his Energy On e-newsletter final weekend, Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman stated that Apple has no major new devices ready to ship, so there won’t be any {hardware} bulletins at WWDC 2025.
Apple might nonetheless shock us on the {hardware} entrance, after all, and Gurman didn’t explicitly rule out smaller gadget bulletins.
WWDC is at all times centered on software program, however there are {hardware} bulletins on the convention in some years. Most lately, Apple unveiled the Imaginative and prescient Professional and up to date three Mac fashions at WWDC 2023. In 2024, nevertheless, it was a software-only affair.
The one rumored Apple product that could be imminent is an AirTag 2. Gurman beforehand stated that he anticipated a brand new AirTag to be released around mid-2025, however he has not talked about the accent shortly, so it’s unclear if that timeframe stays correct. Even when an AirTag 2 is coming quickly, there is no such thing as a assure that will probably be unveiled throughout the WWDC 2025 keynote, as Apple might choose to announce it with a press launch solely.
Nearly all of Macs have been up to date since October 2024, with the one exception being the high-end Mac Professional desktop tower. The present Mac Professional is supplied with Apple’s M2 Extremely chip, so in principle it may very well be up to date with the M3 Extremely chip that debuted within the Mac Studio this yr, however that has not been rumored. It’s also wanting unlikely that Apple will ever release an M4 Ultra chip, so the Mac Professional’s path ahead is at present unclear.
Likewise, the complete iPad lineup has been up to date since Might 2024, so new iPad fashions are unlikely to be introduced at WWDC 2025.
The subsequent iPhone and Apple Watch fashions are anticipated to launch in September, as typical, whereas new Apple TV and HomePod mini models are rumored to launch in September or later this year. AirPods Professional 3 are additionally rumored to launch later this yr, on the earliest, whereas new AirPods Max are not expected to launch until 2027.
There have been on-again, off-again rumors a couple of Vision Pro 2 with an M5 chip, however it’s unclear if that will launch in 2025 or 2026.
A brand new model of Apple’s standalone Studio Show with mini-LED backlighting has been rumored, however it’s not expected to launch until late 2025 or early 2026. Apple’s higher-end Professional Show XDR has not been up to date because it first launched in 2019, however it’s unclear if and when a brand new model of the show will likely be launched.
Final, Apple’s rumored sensible dwelling hub has been postponed attributable to delayed Siri features, so don’t count on that gadget to launch at WWDC 2025. Nevertheless, it’s believable that Apple might present an early preview of the gadget on the convention. Gurman stated that the gadget is not going to have an App Retailer, however there may very well be new APIs for builders.
That wraps up the place issues stand. As talked about, although, a shock or two is at all times attainable.
