FCC Documents Reveal Upcoming Apple Devices

Summary

Recent FCC filings disclose model numbers for forthcoming Apple products, including a new MacBook Pro and M5 iPad Pro models.

Recent filings with the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) have unveiled model numbers for several upcoming Apple devices, indicating the company's ongoing development of new products. The documents reference model numbers not associated with existing devices, such as A3434, which is believed to correspond to an unreleased MacBook Pro. Other model numbers, including A3357, A3358, A3359, A3360, A3361, and A3362, are likely linked to forthcoming M5 iPad Pro models. While the FCC documents do not specify product names, the model numbers suggest these associations based on Apple's existing naming conventions. The filings also suggest that the new M5 iPad Pro models will support Wi-Fi 7, whereas the listed M5 MacBook Pro model does not. These FCC submissions typically occur weeks before a product's official release, hinting at potential launch timelines. Additionally, an unboxing video featuring the M5 iPad Pro has recently surfaced on YouTube, and rumors indicate that new iPad Pro models could be released before the end of the year. Apple is reportedly finalizing work on M5 versions of the MacBook Pro, with mass production expected to commence soon. Refreshed MacBook Pro models featuring M5, M5 Pro, and M5 Max chips may launch between late 2025 and early 2026.
