Apple Set to Launch New Products Next Week

The tech giant has a few new rollouts on the books, including a new iPhone SE and Powerbeats Pro 2 earbuds.

Fez – Apple is preparing to roll out its first products of the year, with major updates expected for the iPhone SE, Powerbeats Pro, and possibly more.

Reports suggest the company could unveil these new devices in just a few days.

iPhone SE 4: a big upgrade for Apple’s budget phone

The iPhone SE hasn’t seen an update since 2022, but that is about to change. The fourth-generation iPhone SE is expected to arrive next week, bringing significant upgrades.

Here’s what’s expected: OLED edge-to-edge display, Face ID with a notch, A18 chip, USB-C charging, 8GB RAM, Apple Intelligence support, 48MP camera, and Apple’s in-house 5G modem.

Many of these features first appeared in the iPhone 16, so their arrival in a budget-friendly model is a big step.

The current iPhone SE costs $429, but the new version might start closer to $499. Even with a price increase, it could be one of the best options for users looking for an affordable iPhone.

Powerbeats Pro 2: new design and exciting features

Apple is also set to launch the Powerbeats Pro 2 next week. The wireless earbuds, made by Apple-owned Beats, have been spotted on athletes like Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy in recent weeks.

Reports suggest Apple will introduce them as early as February 11, and the new model is expected to feature a slimmer design and come in new colors like purple, orange, and light brown.

One of the standout additions is a built-in heart-rate sensor, a feature rumored to also appear in the next AirPods Pro later this year.

While the iPhone SE 4 and Powerbeats Pro 2 are almost certain, Apple might have more in store.

The current MacBook Air stock is reportedly running low, hinting that an M4-powered version could be arriving soon.

The same goes for the iPad Air, which might see an M3 upgrade sooner than expected.

Apple is also planning an update for its base model iPad, which will enter its 11th generation. If the iPad Air and the standard iPad launch together, Apple could have multiple big releases lined up in the coming days.

Apple is likely to spread these launches over multiple days, similar to what it did last October with its M4 Mac lineup.

If that happens, it could be an exciting week for Apple fans.
