Six rumored Apple products are coming in 2023, and this year, we expect to see an iPhone 15 with USB-C charging and Apple’s first mixed-reality headset.
Let’s talk about the Type-C charging port of the iPhone 15. If a security chip is added, do I have to buy Apple’s official charging cable? Not necessarily; I believe in the power of Chinese manufacturing; my Mac and iPad both have Type-C ports, but the sub-factory charging cables can be used.
When it comes to upcoming Apple products, you never know what to expect until the company makes an official announcement.
However, Apple tends to release certain products regularly, providing possible clues to future developments.
Leaks and rumors have also painted images of potential devices in 2023, like the iPhone 15 and Apple’s long-rumored “mixed reality” headset.
For example, we might see Apple’s first AR/VR headset, the first iPhone with USB-C, and the first 15-inch MacBook Air.
As for other products such as AirPods, Apple TV, and iPad, Bloomberg reports that we may not see significant changes to these product lines this year.
The debut of the mixed reality headset will mark the introduction of a whole new product category for Apple. At the same time, other updates suggest that Apple is further optimizing its devices to compete with Android and Windows by offering larger screens and universal USB-C charging. Rivals compete.
Apple has already released several new products this year, including a new yellow iPhone 14, an updated HomePod, Mac Mini with M2 and M2 Pro chips, and MacBook Pro computers with new M2 Pro and M2 Max.
Apple typically unveils new iPhones in September, and this year might be no different. One of the most significant changes we expect to see in the iPhone 15 is the switch from the Lightning charging port to USB-C. That’s because new regulations require tech products sold in Europe to support USB-C by 2024. Still, it’s unclear if Apple will fully embrace the transition to USB-C across the entire iPhone 15 lineup or if it will produce region-specific European models.
Apple’s long-awaited mixed reality headset could finally debut in June, marking Apple’s first major expansion into a new product category since the Apple Watch. The headset is expected to incorporate elements of augmented reality and virtual reality, with augmented reality placing digital graphics in a real-world environment, similar to the smartphone game Pokemon Go.
According to Bloomberg, the device, which could cost $3,000, will run on a new type of software that is essentially a 3D version of the iPhone interface. It is expected to be powered by Apple’s M2 chip, which can be found in its current line of MacBooks.
Tech giants have experimented with virtual or augmented reality, from Meta to Sony to Microsoft. But some expect Apple’s first VR product could popularize the technology, given the company’s long track record with other products.
