Apple fans, get ready! Exciting news is buzzing about two big updates from Apple: a new AirTag and a refreshed Mac Pro. Both are expected to launch later this year and here’s what we know so far in simple terms. First, the AirTag 2 is almost here. People who track Apple’s plans, like Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, say it’s coming around mid-2025—possibly by June.
This new version will help you find your lost items even better. It’s rumored to have a stronger chip that makes tracking more accurate and works from farther away. Plus, Apple is making the speaker harder to remove, which could stop misuse, like unwanted tracking. The look won’t change much, but it might connect better with Apple’s Vision Pro headset.
The current AirTag costs $29, or $99 for four, and the price might stay about the same. Next up, the Mac Pro is getting a boost too. Apple has been updating its computers with new M4 chips, but the Mac Pro is still waiting its turn. Right now, it runs on the older M2 Ultra chip from 2023.
Experts think the new Mac Pro, due late 2025, could skip straight to an M5 chip instead of an M4 Ultra. Why? Apple might not make an M4 Ultra, as seen with the recent Mac Studio update. The Mac Pro won’t look different, but it could get faster Thunderbolt 5 ports for connecting more screens and handling big tasks.
It might also support more memory—up to 512GB—perfect for pros like video editors or designers. Both updates show Apple’s push to keep its gadgets top-notch. The AirTag 2 will make finding stuff easier and safer, while the Mac Pro will power up for heavy work. We’ll know more as 2025 rolls on, but for now, these hints have us excited! Stay tuned for Apple’s next moves.
