As far as Apple is concerned, one thing is particularly true: we hear a lot of rumors until the official announcement of new devices, but until the official announcement comes, we are more or less groping in the dark with the details.
Nevertheless, we can roughly say when we expect which devices, simply because Apple releases some product series at regular intervals.
As always, there are exciting new products this year. For example the mixed reality headset, which will be completely new territory for Apple. But let’s get into the classic:
1.Apple iPhone 15
The Dynamic Island of the iPhone 14 Pro should also be installed in the non-Pro models of the iPhone 15.
Apple usually releases new iPhone models in September and this year we can assume that this will not change.
Probably the biggest change in the new iPhone 15 is the USB-C portwhich will replace the previous Lightning socket. The EU has passed a law that will force smartphone manufacturers to only market smartphones with a USB-C port by 2024.
In addition, the Dynamic Island could also come for non-Pro models. At least that’s what Ross Young, the CEO of Display Supply Chain Sonsultants, reported on Twitter:

To set the Pro variant apart from the rest, one could Periscope Camera be installed with a better optical zoom.
Also, solid-state buttons are rumored to replace the traditional buttons, but according to current information, that seems to be a thing of the past. According to Macrumors.com technical problems in production are the reason for this.
2.Apple Watch Series 9

This year could perhaps be a little disappointing for all fans of the Apple Watch range. From a Bloomberg report reveals that the upcoming model of the Apple Watch will not undergo any major changes.
What that means exactly is not clear. However, we don’t think you should expect groundbreaking new features. Instead, the existing and established hardware should only be subtly drilled out.
3. Mixed reality headset

June 2023 will likely see the release of the first Apple product from a new product category since the Apple Watch (via Bloomberg). The headset should Combine Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR)..
AR integrates virtual content into the real environment, while VR creates a digital environment in which we can move and act – albeit in moderation.
According to Bloomberg, the headset could cost $3,000. Not exactly a bargain considering other VR headsets can be had for as little as a few hundred bucks like the Meta Quest 2 for example. Still, the price is not surprising. After all, Apple is not exactly known for cheap products, and it also depends heavily on the intended target group.
The interface should be very similar to that of the iPhone, except that it will supposedly be designed for three-dimensional interaction.
And while we’re on the subject of similarities to other Apple devices: The M2 chip, which can be found in current Macbooks, is also said to be installed in the mixed reality headset.

According to Bloomberg’s report, it could be released in June, but TF International analyst Ming-Chi Kuo tweeted that mass production of the headset is over postponed for a month or two becomes.
4. New iMacs

If your the big and most importantly colorful apple total package hopefully you’ll be happy with the new iMacs. They should according to Bloomberg are currently in the advanced development phase and could therefore appear in the second half of the year.
Supposedly they should even already with that m3 chip be equipped. So far there is only the M2 chip in current MacBook models.
The screen is said to measure 24 inches and the color variants are expected to be the same as the 2021 iMacs seen above.
5. 15-inch MacBook Air

The lightweight becomes the middleweight – at least a little bit. A 15-inch model of the MacBook Air will be available for the first time this year. It is still unclear whether the new M3 chip will also be installed here. A 13-inch variant is also to be worked on.
According to the current status, both models will appear in “late spring or summer”, although we assume that the MacBook Air models will not be launched until summer.
6. Mac Pro with M2 Ultra

Anyone targeting Apple products in the high-end range should look forward to the new Mac Pro. He’s supposed to be with one M2 Ultra chip be equipped – the successor of the M1 Ultra.
As with the MacBooks, we’ll likely see more Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference in June experience. The Mac Pro is rumored to be out this summer.
The Apple devices mentioned above should therefore be released this year. Which of these are you looking forward to the most? Will you get one of these? Or maybe even several?
