The new Apple products and services we can expect in January 2021.
AirPods 3
After launching two new sets of AirPods in 2019, Apple very nearly went the whole of 2020 without launching any. And the one it did squeeze out in mid-December, the AirPods Max, is an essentially unrelated product that shares little with the existing AirPods range except branding.
iMac 23in with M1 chip
The Mac got a lot more attention than the AirPods in 2020, with releases throughout the year: we got a new MacBook Air in March, a MacBook Pro 13in in May and an iMac in August, before the whole range got turned on its head in November with M1 versions of the Air and Pro and an M1 Mac mini.
That M1 chip, a piece of proprietary Apple Silicon that leaves Intel chipsets in the dust - as revealed in our MacBook Air M1 review.
MacBook Pro 14in
We got a 13in M1 MacBook Pro in November, but Apple's larger Pro model, like the iMac and iMac Pro, is still based on Intel. That should change soon, with a 16in M1 model in development.But before that arrives, we think Apple will unveil a new size of MacBook Pro between 13in and 16in: a 14in model, which will ultimately replace the 13in and offer a more appealing user experience.
Apple Watch Series 7
Regarding the Apple Watch Series 7 , some news regarding health, battery improvements and even a slight design change are expected. The latter was predicted by well-known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo several weeks ago, hinting that they could lower the frames even more than they did from Series 3 to Series 4.
