M5 iPad Pro likely this month; M5 MacBook Pro uncertain — stock & delivery notes
Recent reports and shop listings suggest Apple may be preparing to launch new products soon. German site ifun.de observed that stock for iPad Pro and MacBook Pro models is tightening in official online stores and stated that delivery times for new orders can stretch to several weeks — a typical sign ahead of product announcements.
Independent leak coverage indicates the M5 iPad Pro is likely to debut this month, while the M5 MacBook Pro is less certain and might be delayed or announced later. Sources note supply timing for Apple silicon (especially higher-end M5 variants) can vary, so MacBook Pro updates could arrive later than the iPad.
