4 Upcoming Apple Products Worth Your Money in 2025
When Apple products have minimal upgrades, waiting for the next release, buying an open box or refurbished model in a few months can be the smarter move. Find Out: Consider This: A slew of Apple products, including Macs, iPods and Apple Watches are going on sale this spring on Amazon, Walmart and Best Buy, according to CNN. But you might wonder what new releases Apple has in store for 2025, and which models are worth the money. GOBankingRates tapped the experts to find out which upcoming and new Apple products are actually worth the money, breaking down value, specs and utility to help you and your family invest wisely in tech that fits your lifestyle and budget. Price: $599 Jonathan Brax, owner of Techable and recommended the new Mac Mini M4, released in November 2024. Since Apple hasn't hinted about an M5 chip, we thought it was worth mentioning. 'This new Mac Mini is getting a ton of buzz [this year] because it packs impressive power into an affordable, compact setup,' he noted. Due to its miniature size, it's an excellent product for everyday users, students, or even professionals wanting to maximize desk space without sacrificing performance, said Brax. 'Apple's new M4 chip comes with 6GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD; and the best part is it's only $599 brand new — but I've seen Amazon deals recently knocking another $100 off,' he continued Learn More: Price: $1,599 Another Mac product that will be big this year is the M3 MacBook Pro 14-inch, according to Brax. 'The M3 MacBook Pro is one of the smartest buys you can make this year,' he said. 'It balances power and portability, making it ideal for students, creative professionals and anyone needing solid performance on the go.' Brax noted that 'something Apple fans always appreciate' are the specs that come with it, which include 8-core CPU, 10-core GPU, 8GB unified memory, and a 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display and plenty of ports. The M3 MacBook Pro is priced at $1,599, but you can find deals for $1,299. Brax recommended buying it refurbished from trusted sellers to maximize value. Price: $1,099 'The upcoming MacBook Air with the M3 chip will likely be one of the best Apple products to buy this year due to its better performance, improved battery life and possibly a new design,' said Peter Barnett, VP of Product Strategy at Action1. What makes this MacBook a great deal is that it combines the perfect balance of power and portability, making it an all-around value for students, remote workers and even those using it casually. 'The base model will likely start at around $1,099, making it a smart investment for Apple enthusiasts at a low price point,' Barnett said. If you don't need the latest features, Barnett recommended waiting for discounts or buying last year's M2 model at a lower price. Price: $399 Apple Watch fans are in for a treat, as Apple's 10th anniversary Apple Watch Series 10 is expected to introduce significant upgrades, according to Barnett. 'The [Series 10] will likely feature a thinner design, better battery life and new health tracking features, making it the best series yet if you rely on your Apple Watch for fitness, sleep tracking or daily convenience,' he said. 'It's worth buying new if you want the latest sensors and performance improvements, but if you're on a budget, last year's Series 9 will still be a great buy at a discount,' Barnett noted.
