Apple may have just given us a look at its secret hardware plans for the next two years. In a massive slip-up, the company’s own software code has reportedly revealed a staggering list of seven unannounced products. These details, uncovered by developers, extend far beyond the expected iPhone 17, providing a glimpse of what to expect in the worlds of smart home, displays, and wearables throughout 2025 and 2026.
The leaked identifiers suggest a renewed focus on home entertainment. A new HomePod mini (codename B525) and an updated Apple TV are both in the works, with the latter poised to receive the powerful A17 Pro chip for enhanced gaming and AI support. The leak also hints at Apple’s continued investment in professional products, with a new Studio Display and a second-generation Vision Pro headset both in development.
For mobile devices, Apple is planning a significant performance bump for its popular iPad mini, which is set to adopt the A19 Pro chip from the iPhone 17 Pro lineup. A new entry-level iPad with an A18 chip is also in the pipeline, bringing key upgrades and Apple Intelligence to a more affordable price point.
The leaks further confirm updates to the Apple Watch family, including the Series 11, Ultra 3, and Watch SE 3. While these are expected to be incremental updates with the new S11 chip, the sheer number of upcoming products points to a strategic overhaul of Apple’s entire product line, from its most powerful headset to its most affordable speaker.
