Overview

• Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports Apple is likely to unveil an M5 iPad Pro and an updated Vision Pro this week, with a base 14-inch MacBook Pro also described as likely, via online announcements rather than an event.
• Unboxing videos from Russia show an iPad Pro running the M5 with at least 12 GB of RAM and no rear “iPad Pro” text, while leaked Geekbench results point to a 9‑core CPU and roughly 12% multi‑core CPU and ~36% GPU gains over M4.
• The refreshed Vision Pro is reported to adopt the M5 chip with a more comfortable Dual Knit Band and a possible Space Black option, and regulatory filings indicate continued Wi‑Fi 6 support.
• A short-lived AT&T webpage title referencing “iPad Pro M5 Pre-Order Soon” surfaced and was removed, adding to expectations of an imminent announcement.
• Higher-end M5 Pro and M5 Max chips are not expected to be ready in volume until early 2026, suggesting Apple will debut base M5 models first.
