Apple has big plans for MacBooks in 2025, with the tech giant preparing to launch updated 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air models in early 2025. These new laptops will be powered by the latest M4 chip and are expected to maintain the current design while offering major performance boosts, longer battery life, and advanced camera technology.

The odd little 13-inch MacBook Pro was refreshed with the M2 chip, but it became the only MacBook to retain the old design. In late 2023, Apple finally phased that out with its M3 MacBook Pro release in favor of a more affordable 14-inch MacBook Pro — the first in that design to feature a base M-series chip.

The AMD Ryzen AI 300 series aims to take on the MacBook Pro at its own game. Also, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D CPU seeks to blow gamers away with its strong performance.

Here are AMD's biggest announcements from CES 2025 - including new X3D CPUs for desktop and laptops and RDNA 4 graphics cards.
