Apple is likely to launch many new products this year.
Apple is expected to launch numerous new products over the next few months. In the code for macOS Tahoe 26.7, Apple now provides clues about more than 20 new products, including the foldable iPhone Ultra and the long-awaited smart home hub.

Apple released the macOS Tahoe 26.7 Release Candidate yesterday, the final preview version before the update is rolled out to all compatible Macs. MacRumors was able to uncover codenames and references to more than 20 new Apple products in the code of this update, offering a sneak peek at Apple’s plans for the coming months.

The MacBook Pro ($1,849 on Amazon) and MacBook Ultra with an OLED touchscreen and new design (K114c, K114s, K116c, K116s), the Apple iMac (J833, J834), and the more affordable 14-inch MacBook Pro (J804) with Apple M6 are apparently the next Macs set to hit the market. The iPad mini (J510, J511) also appears in the code, rumors suggest a model with an OLED display and Apple A19 Pro. The iPhone 18 Pro (V63), the iPhone 18 Pro Max (V64), and the iPhone Ultra (V68) are expected to launch as early as September, followed by the iPhone Air 2 (V62) and the iPhone 18 (V67) in the spring.

The code name "N109" also hints at a new Apple Vision VR headset, though it might not hit the market for several years. The code "ATVRemote1.5" suggests a new remote control for the Apple TV 4K, while the codename "B790" is said to refer to the recently leaked AirPods with cameras. The code also includes references to the AirPods Pro 4 and two new Beats headphones (B518, B522), as well as two versions of Apple’s smart home hub (J490, J491), which is said to run on an operating system that Apple internally calls "Pebble." In addition to the HomePod mini (B525) and a possible smart-home camera (J229), MacRumors also uncovered codenames whose meanings are not yet known:
