Apple is reportedly planning a three-day stretch of product announcements from Monday, March 2 through Wednesday, March 4, with up to five new products<\/a> expected to be unveiled, including a lower-cost MacBook<\/a>, an iPhone 17e<\/a>, and more.<\/p>\n

Other possible products include an iPad Air with an M4 chip, an iPad 12 with an A18 chip and Apple Intelligence support, a MacBook Air with the M5 chip, and MacBook Pro models with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips. We are also waiting for long-awaited updates to the Apple TV and HomePod mini, but it is unclear if those are coming next week.<\/p>\n

Apple already invited selected journalists and content creators to an “Apple Experience” in New York, London, and Shanghai<\/a> on Wednesday, March 4 at 9 a.m. Eastern Time. During these in-person gatherings, attendees will likely receive hands-on time with the new products that Apple unveils between Monday and Wednesday next week.<\/p>\n

The products are expected to be announced in press releases published on the Apple Newsroom website, with no Apple Event live stream expected.<\/p>\n

MacRumors will have in-depth coverage of Apple’s announcements next week, and we will be attending the “Apple Experience” in New York.<\/p>\n
