Welcoming the holiday shopping season, Apple releases three updated products equipped with the M5 chip

Apple released the new iPad Pro, Vision Pro, and entry-level MacBook Pro equipped with the new M5 chip, updating its products to welcome the important holiday season. Apple stated on Wednesday that the appearance of the three devices remains the same as the current versions, but the processors have been replaced with the company's first M5 chip, which has improvements in computing speed, graphics processing, and artificial intelligence tasks. The starting prices for the three products remain unchanged, with the iPad Pro starting at $999, the MacBook Pro starting at $1,599, and the Vision Pro headset still priced at $3,499. The iPad Pro also adds Apple's self-developed N1 wireless chip and C1X modem, while the Vision Pro introduces new headband options. This update further enhances Apple's product lineup. Last month, Apple launched the iPhone 17, a slimmer iPhone Air, as well as upgraded AirPods and Apple Watch. All new products went on pre-sale on Apple's official website on Wednesday and will officially hit stores on October 22
