Even though Apple has launched quite a few products recently including the iPhone 16e, Apple MacBook Air with M4 chip and more, autumn has always been the company's most action-packed season. That spans new software updates, flagship iPhone releases and a range of other product launches. The year 2025 is likely to be even more exciting than usual, as Apple is reportedly planning its most expansive launch lineup in years including iPhone 17 series, Apple Watch Ultra, M5 MacBook Pro, Apple TV 4K and more.
Apple's annual software updates always generate excitement, but this year iOS 19 is expected to stand out due to a rumoured significant redesign. While the initial look will be at the WWDC in June, the OS will roll out with the latest devices.
Tech analyst Mark Gurman recently reported that iOS 19 will introduce the most significant visual overhaul to iPhone software since the iOS 7 redesign in 2013. While speculation about a major iOS refresh has surfaced before, Gurman's report — despite lacking specifics — adds strong credibility to the possibility of a dramatic redesign in 2025.
Over the years, whispers of an iOS revamp have come and gone, but the anticipation feels more tangible now. While new features are always exciting, nothing sparks conversation, or stirs controversy, quite like a complete visual transformation of the iPhone's interface.
Apple's iPhone upgrades have felt incremental in recent years, but the iPhone 17 series is set to change that. The standout addition is the ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air, promising a striking new design.
Beyond that, Apple is reportedly revamping the iPhone 17 Pro models, focusing on an improved camera system with a reworked camera bump. There is also speculation that the company could rebrand its high-end model as the iPhone 17 Ultra, elevating its premium offerings to a new level.
While the iPhone 17 and iOS 19 will likely steal the spotlight, Apple has a slew of other major product updates lined up for the Fall period, according to 9to5Mac.
Expected Apple releases include:
AirPods Pro 3
Apple Watch Ultra 3
Apple Watch Series 11
M5 MacBook Pro
New Apple TV 4K
HomePod mini 2
Apple Watch SE 3
There are also murmurs of an M5 iPad Pro launch.
With a redesigned iOS, a fresh take on the iPhone lineup and a range of new hardware, Apple's fall launch season is shaping up to be one of its most ambitious in years. Whether it's a groundbreaking iPhone or a cutting-edge Apple Watch, the company seems poised to set new standards in innovation once again.
