iPhone in 2025
Get ready for one of Apple's biggest design shakeups ever.

In 2025, Apple is going to introduce one of the most significant design overhauls in the iPhone’s history.
The Pro versions are receiving their first complete redesign in years, and there will be a brand-new model, with a design not seen before.
Even the entry-level models and iPhone SE are getting a range of notable upgrades.
It’s shaping up to be an exciting year for Apple. Here’s a look at what 2025 has in store for the iPhone.
Also in today’s newsletter:
AirPods, too, are due for some big upgrades in 2025.
Because I’m a huge cheapskate, I bought the 2-year-old iPad 10 in the Black Friday sales when it hit $250, a price just too good to pass up. I was blown away by it: It’s a great little iPad for a very reasonable price. The upcoming iPad 11 won’t bring as big a design change as the 10 did, but we’re expecting a decent upgrade. And here’s what else is in store for the rest of the iPad lineup in 2025.
If you didn’t get any AirTags for Xmas, don’t cry into your leftover eggnog. They’re still on sale! As is the new Apple Pencil Pro.
There’s an inexplicable glitch in Safari that reopens a private tab from the last session — which potentially could be very embarrassing! Luckily, there’s a foolproof workaround.

Streaming platforms pay billions in royalties.
JKBX (pronounced “Jukebox”) opens the door to invest in royalty shares of iconic songs, earning quarterly distributions tied to their performance.
This isn’t about fanfare—it’s about diversification. Music royalties offer a potential income stream tied to one thing people never stop doing: pressing play.

Meta Horizon is the number one app on the App Store this Christmas.
Don’t believe people when they tell you XR is dead. We’re just getting started.

Apple Vision Pro is by far and away my favourite and most transformative hardware purchase of the year. I couldn’t have asked for a better stand to pair it with.
Absolutely blown away to be gifted this over Christmas. Sy Wong’s Behance concept brought meticulously to life.

This guy was so happy for his brother getting an iPhone that he didn’t even realize he got one too. Zero jealousy! ❤️

One more thing ...
The most compelling reason for most people to buy a computer for the home will be to link it into a nationwide communications network. We're just in the beginning stages of what will be a truly remarkable breakthrough for most people — as remarkable as the telephone.
