Release Date: The AirPods 4 are expected to hit the market in late 2024, coinciding with the launch of the new iPhone.

New iPad Pro

The new iPad Pro promises to shine with its matte screen, employing nano-texture technology to improve the visual experience, especially in intense light conditions. A reduction in bezels is also expected, matching Apple's minimalist aesthetic.

Price: The prices for the 11” and 13” models are expected to be between $1500 and $1800, respectively.

Release Date: The iPad Pro is predicted to be unveiled in March 2024, with deliveries starting in April.

The iPhone 16 series, expected to keep Apple at the forefront of the smartphone market, will include Pro and Pro Max models with larger screens: 6.3 and 6.9 inches, respectively.

The full range will feature OLED panels equipped with micro-lens technology, improving both brightness and energy efficiency.

The iPhone 16 and 16 Plus models will come with two new buttons: the Action Button, multi-functional and replacing the mute switch, and the Capture Button, for photos and videos, next to the power button.

An innovative thermal design is expected for the iPhone 16, aiming to combat overheating, and may include a graphene system, while the Pro models could have a metallic battery casing to optimize heat dissipation.

Rumours suggest that the storage capacity of the iPhone 16 Pro will double compared to previous models, reaching 2TB.

Price: The cost of each new iPhone series is usually similar to or slightly higher than previous models, reflecting new features and inflation. Without official information, however, providing an exact estimate is challenging.
