Multiple reports say Apple is preparing a spring 2027 update to its iPad Pro lineup and a redesigned entry-level MacBook Pro. Bloomberg is cited by several outlets as saying Apple is testing four new iPad Pro models, with an expected launch in spring 2027. The iPad Pro refresh is described as incremental, with screen sizes reportedly staying the same and no major redesign expected. Coverage also indicates Apple is focusing on internal upgrades rather than exterior changes, including potential hardware performance improvements; one report adds that Apple has tested a vapor chamber cooling system.
For the MacBook Pro, outlets report Apple is working on a redesigned, entry-level model that could arrive as early as the first half of 2027. The reports frame the changes as part of a broader product plan that includes other major releases during the iPhone’s 20th anniversary year. One outlet adds that the iPad Pro models could use Apple’s newer M6 or M7 chips, depending on chip availability by spring 2027, and that the M7 has AI optimizations not present in the M6.
