Apple may be gearing up for a major multi-day product rollout in early March, with at least five new devices tipped to debut during a three-day “Special Experience” event.
According to a report from Bloomberg, the Cupertino tech giant is expected to host gatherings in New York, London and Shanghai starting March 4, potentially spreading announcements across three days instead of holding a single keynote-style launch.
Unlike the company’s usual high-profile product keynotes, this March showcase is being described as a more intimate “Special Experience,” offering hands-on access for invited guests.
If accurate, this would mark another shift in Apple’s strategy, with the company reportedly moving away from one major annual iPhone event toward multiple hardware launches throughout the year. Here are five products that could launch as soon as next week:
1. Low-cost MacBook
Leading the rumoured announcements is a more affordable MacBook model. The device is expected to come in multiple colour options, signalling a push to attract students and budget-conscious buyers.
2. iPhone 17E
A lower-cost iPhone 17E could also arrive this spring. The device would likely sit below Apple’s flagship lineup, offering core features at a more accessible price point.
3. iPad Air with M4 chip
Apple is also expected to refresh the iPad Air with an M4 processor, bringing improved performance to its mid-range tablet.
4. Upgraded MacBook Pro and MacBook Air
New versions of the MacBook Pro and MacBook Air are tipped to launch with upgraded processors, continuing Apple’s silicon transition and performance push.
5. Updated entry-level iPad
An upgraded base-model iPad could also be announced, alongside possible software previews.
The report adds that inventory levels for devices such as the iPad Air and iPhone 16E have reportedly begun running low.
Several tech experts and influencers have shared the invites they received from Apple. It features the Apple logo in a yellow, green and blue gradient. Some Reddit users speculate that the colourful design could hint at new MacBook colour options, while others believe it may signal broader product refreshes across Apple’s lineup.
With all eyes on Samsung this week for the Galaxy S26 series, it is exciting to see what the competitors will be up to just a week later.
