BREAKING: Apple’s M5 Chip Revolution – New MacBook Pro, iPad Pro & Vision Pro Leaks Explode

by
13 October 2025
  • M5 MacBook Pro imminent: Leaks (macOS Tahoe code) show Apple is finalizing a base 14″ MacBook Pro with the M5 chip for a late‑2025 release [1] [2]. AppleInsider notes that an unreleased Mac (ID J704) is in testing with macOS 26.0.2 – “gearing up for the debut of the base model M5 MacBook Pro” [3]. Current M4 Pro stock is tight and FCC filings have “leaked the model number of an unreleased MacBook Pro,” all but confirming the switch to M5 [4]. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman likewise says Apple will announce a new 14″ MacBook Pro (entry model) with an M5 chip any day now [5] [6]. (Higher-end M5 Pro/Max versions will follow in “early 2026,” per multiple reports [7] [8].)
  • MacBook Air also updated: The next MacBook Air refresh is slated right after the new Pro. According to sources, 13″ and 15″ MacBook Air models with the M5 chip (codenames J813/J815) will arrive in early 2026 [9] [10]. These will replace the current M4 Air (launched Mar 2025) and ship with macOS 26.2 [11]. TechRadar’s leak summary agrees: an M5 MacBook Air is expected to debut “early in 2026” shortly after the base MacBook Pro [12]. Notably, industry analysts (e.g. Ming‑Chi Kuo) say Apple has pushed the flagship MacBook Pro refresh out to 2026 to perfect the M5 chips [13], meaning no major MacBook Pro revamp in late 2025. In fact, one Apple rumor site notes there will be “no new MacBooks in late 2025, then M5‑powered MacBook Pro and Air launches in early 2026” [14].
  • Pro/Max and Pro redesign later: After these M5 releases, Apple is planning a more dramatic overhaul. The high-end 14″/16″ MacBook Pros with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips will arrive in early 2026 with macOS 26.3 [15] [16]. (AppleInsider points out this timing “aligns with prior product launches” and that bigger changes like OLED displays, thinner chassis, even a MacBook Pro touchscreen are expected with the M6 generation in ~2027 [17] [18].) Desktop Macs get their turn too: a refreshed Mac mini (J873) and Mac Studio (J775) with newer silicon are due in summer 2026 on macOS 26.4 [19], and possibly a new iMac. (AppleInsider: “macOS 26.4 contains files for a Mac known as J833ct, which may be an iMac” [20].) Overall, 2026 is shaping up busy: “Before the new year, though, we’ll be able to see the M5 iPad Pro and M5 MacBook Pro,” and then early‑2026 for Air/Pro models, with mini/Studio by mid‑year [21] [22].
  • iPad Pro gets M5 chip in October: Leaks show the iPad Pro is next to get M5 silicon. Unboxing videos (Russia) reportedly confirm the upcoming 11″ and 13″ OLED iPad Pros have an M5 chip and 12 GB RAM (with minimal design changes except dropping the “iPad Pro” label on the back) [23]. Mark Gurman says these iPad Pros will arrive around October 2025, about 17 months after the last M4 iPad Pro – suggesting roughly an 18‑month cycle [24]. TechStock (TS2.tech) likewise reports the 2025 iPad Pro is “slated to adopt the M5 chip on 11″ and 13″ OLED models around October 2025” [25]. AppleInsider confirms an M5 iPad Pro “refresh” is imminent: Gurman’s newsletter says an updated iPad Pro is “on the cards,” and AppleInsider predicts an M5 iPad Pro will “arrive in the next week” alongside a Vision Pro update [26] [27].
  • Vision Pro 2 arriving soon: Apple’s mixed‑reality Vision Pro headset is also due for a modest upgrade this year. The updated model (sometimes called Vision Pro 2) will sport a faster chip and improved comfort. Sources say Apple will move from the original M2 to the new M5 chip in the next Vision Pro, which is rumored to “launch by late 2025” [28] [29]. Expected tweaks include a redesigned “Dual Knit Band” for better comfort and possibly a new Space Black color option [30] [31]. Notably, AppleInsider cites an in‑production M5 iPad Pro and Vision Pro 2, and Gurman’s report suggests both are “in mass production and set up for an imminent release” [32]. (Analyst Ming‑Chi Kuo also has predicted an M5 Vision Pro by late 2025 [33].)
  • Timing – no big keynote, just press releases: All evidence points to announcements rolling out via press releases or online updates, rather than a splashy in‑person event. AppleInsider notes that Gurman expects these October updates to drop through the Apple Newsroom and brief videos, not a full keynote [34] [35]. In fact, Gurman says Apple will likely not stage a big event at all, but will still reveal the products “this week” (meaning mid‑October) with an updated 14″ MacBook Pro, new iPad Pros, and Vision Pro [36] [37]. (Forbes and other outlets have speculated about an “October event,” but current leaks strongly favor quick updates instead.)

In summary, multiple sources (AppleInsider, TechRadar, MacRumors, 9to5Mac and industry analysts) paint a consistent picture: Apple is about to roll out its new M5 chip across its product line. A base-model MacBook Pro (14″, M5) appears ready in late 2025, closely followed by updated 13″/15″ MacBook Airs in early 2026. The iPad Pro is refresh is hitting with M5 silicon (likely this month), and even the Vision Pro headset is getting an M5 upgrade before year’s end [38] [39]. High‑end MacBook Pro (M5 Pro/Max) and other Mac updates arrive in early 2026, with bigger redesigns (OLED screens, M6 chips, etc.) slated thereafter [40] [41]. Apple’s own code leaks (macOS Tahoe 26) have essentially confirmed these timelines, and experts like Mark Gurman and Ming‑Chi Kuo back them up [42] [43]. In short: Apple’s fall 2025 lineup is shaping up to be a “spec bump” wave of M5 upgrades across Macs, iPads and more – with the full 2026 roadmap already visible in leaked code and industry forecasts [44] [45].

Sources: Authoritative tech outlets and analysts, including AppleInsider [46] [47], TechRadar [48] [49], MacRumors [50] [51], 9to5Mac [52], and TS2.tech [53] [54], along with Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman and Ming‑Chi Kuo, all cited above. These sources corroborate the leaked timelines and chip rumors in detail.

  • 8 Forever Stocks With 15+ Years of Revenue Growth: Durable Compounding Leaders
    November 2, 2025, 8:26 PM EST. Eight forever stocks have grown revenue every year for at least 15 consecutive years, weathering recessions and shifting consumer trends. The list spans Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, Netflix, Adobe, NVIDIA, Apple, and Costco, and embodies global scale, recurring demand, and disciplined capital allocation. These franchises demonstrate durable revenue flywheels built on subscription models, pricing power, and expanding ecosystems, enabling steady compounding across cycles. The article highlights how each company turns scale into operating leverage, while valuation context from tools like TIKR frames upside relative to forward growth. For long-term investors, these names offer potential for decades of compounding through resilient demand and innovation.
  • CF Industries (CF) Valuation Under Scrutiny After Recent Share Price Volatility
    November 2, 2025, 8:24 PM EST. CF Industries Holdings (CF) traded higher today after a week of choppiness, with a 1-year return of about 1.5% and a five-year total return of 241%. Near-term momentum is weaker: 7-day -3.68% and 30-day -7.55%. The stock sits around $83.29, versus a fair value of $93.56, implying an undervalued setup on a longer horizon. Much of the valuation rests on bold capital allocation: roughly $2 billion in buybacks over the past year and another $2.4 billion authorized, which can lift EPS and ROE but may reflect financial engineering rather than sustained operating profit. Risks include fertilizer pricing dynamics amid global demand and population growth. The narrative blends earnings recalibration with a potential multiple shift- a framework worth reviewing to gauge where the fair value could head.
  • 7 Stocks That Stand to Benefit From Rising Interest Rates
    November 2, 2025, 8:08 PM EST. As rates rise, most firms feel the squeeze, but a subset of financials can benefit. Banks like JPMorgan and Bank of America gain from a widening net interest margin as deposits cost less than what they earn on loans. Wells Fargo, Morgan Stanley, and other lenders show rate-sensitive profit upside. Brokers such as Charles Schwab benefit from higher yields on client cash, while insurers Allstate and MetLife can lift investment returns even if near-term balance sheets face pressure. If rates stay elevated, these banks, brokers, and insurers often prove more resilient, turning a rate headwind into steady profit growth. Analysts see upside in seven names: JPM, BAC, WFC, SCHW, MS, ALL, MET.
