Apple's Exciting March 4 Event: What to Expect

Apple is set to kick off its first event of the year on March 4. The tech giant will host a “special Apple experience” in New York, London, and Shanghai, starting at 9 AM ET / 2 PM GMT / 10 PM CST. Whether the event will be livestreamed or if Apple will reveal products through press releases remains uncertain.

Several products are expected, with the iPhone 17e frequently mentioned in recent rumors. This device, a successor to last year’s iPhone 16e, is anticipated to feature the upgraded Apple A19 chipset, a 6.1-inch screen with Dynamic Island, and the same 18MP selfie camera as the iPhone 17 series.

In addition to the 17e, Apple may refresh its MacBook lineup with a new entry-level MacBook featuring the A18 Pro chipset, a durable aluminum chassis, and a price tag under $1,000, available in various color options.

Furthermore, rumors indicate that Apple may debut a new M5 MacBook Air, as well as M5 Pro and M5 Max MacBook Pro models. There are also whispers of new Mac displays and updated iPad Air models powered by the M4 chip, along with a new baseline iPad equipped with the A18 chipset.
