AirPods Pro 3
The AirPods Pro 3 are anticipated to launch alongside the new iPhones in September, marking three years since the release of the AirPods Pro 2. References to the AirPods Pro 3 have been found within the iOS 26 beta code. The new AirPods Pro are expected to feature a redesigned smaller case and smaller buds, improved sound quality with new drivers, and significantly enhanced active noise cancellation through a new digital ink driver.
iPhone 17
The iPhone 17 series will include the standard 17, the 17 Air, the 17 Pro, and the 17 Pro Max (possibly rebranded as Ultra). The iPhone 17 is expected to be a simple update, retaining the same design and camera bump but with a display upgrade to 6.3 inches. It may also feature a 120 Hz ProMotion display, although there are reports suggesting it might have a static refresh rate higher than the current models, possibly around 90 Hz. There are also reports that the iPhone 17 might reuse the A18 chip, resulting in minimal performance upgrades.
iPhone 17 Air
The iPhone 17 Air is expected to be a slim and luxurious device with a 6.6-inch display, positioning it between the Pro and Pro Max models. It will feature a 120 Hz screen and a redesigned elongated pill-shaped camera bump. Apple may introduce new battery intelligence features that are more advanced than the adaptive power mode in iOS 26. The 17 Air is expected to exclusively feature the A19 chip with 12 GB of RAM.
iPhone 17 Pro
The iPhone 17 Pro is expected to be thicker, offering significant improvements to battery life. It will maintain the 6.3-inch display and feature a redesigned aluminum back. The device will be powered by the A19 Pro chip, offering a substantial speed boost and potentially more cores, along with 12 GB of RAM. Thermal upgrades, possibly including a vapor chamber, and an upgraded OLED display panel with 120 Hz ProMotion are also expected. The iPhone 17 Pro may also feature a triple 48-megapixel rear camera setup, potentially enabling 8K video recording for the first time.
iPhone 17 Pro Max
The iPhone 17 Pro Max will incorporate all the features of the other iPhone 17 models but will focus on maximizing battery life, being thicker than the 16 Pro Max. It is expected to have the best cooling system, including an advanced vapor chamber. The device will retain the 6.9-inch display and is rumored to offer superior battery performance compared to other mainstream phones. The entire iPhone 17 lineup is expected to include an Apple-designed Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 7 chip for improved efficiency and battery life. Additionally, all models will feature a 24-megapixel selfie camera, marking the first upgrade to the front camera in many years.
HomePod
The new HomePod, referred to as the Apple Home Hub device, is expected to function like an iPad that can be docked with various accessories. These accessories may include wall mounts and tabletop mounts, potentially integrating a built-in HomePod-like speaker. The device is expected to feature a front-facing camera for Center Stage FaceTime and will run a new Home OS.
Apple Watch Ultra 3
The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is set to receive a significant update, including satellite connectivity and 5G for faster internet speeds. These connectivity upgrades may introduce new features for Watch OS 26. The device is also expected to feature updated display technology for improved efficiency and a faster processor. While there were rumors of a redesigned magnetic band system, this might be delayed until the following year.
Apple TV 4K
The Apple TV 4K is rumored to be updated, potentially featuring a new design. The standout feature is expected to be a new chip, likely the A17 Pro or possibly the A18. The device will feature a redesigned TVOS interface and is expected to support Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. There may also be updates for smart home device integration, potentially functioning as a home hub. The new Apple TV 4K is expected to be great for gamers.
Apple Watch SE 3
The Apple Watch SE 3, which was skipped last year, is expected to be released this year with an upgraded, more efficient chip. The device will be redesigned with plastic cases instead of aluminum, offering a variety of bright color options aimed at younger audiences. The plastic case could also lead to a lower price point compared to the current SE models, making it an attractive option for budget-conscious consumers.
HomePod Mini
A new HomePod Mini is anticipated, featuring updated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth specifications, and potentially a new U2 chip for improved handoff capabilities. Enhanced sound quality with new speaker drivers is expected, along with the introduction of new color options.
