Apple leaks are nothing new, but the latest one is unusually revealing.
Code discovered in an early prototype build of iOS 26 has surfaced dozens of unreleased Apple product codenames, offering a rare look at the company’s hardware roadmap for 2026 and beyond.
The leaks suggest that 2026 could be one of Apple’s busiest years ever.
The list spans across iPhones, Macs, iPads, wearables, smart home devices, to entirely new product categories. While Apple can still delay or cancel products, the presence of these devices in internal testing points to serious development work already underway.
Here are some leaked Apple products that are shaping expectations for 2026.
iPhones
Here are some of the iPhone leaks that will make all the iPhone enthusiasts excited:
1. iPhone 17e
A more affordable iPhone expected to launch earlier in the year, continuing Apple’s push into lower price tiers.
2. iPhone 18 Pro
Apple’s 2026 flagship Pro model, likely featuring major performance, camera, and display upgrades.
3. iPhone 18 Pro Max
The larger Pro variant expected to arrive alongside the iPhone 18 Pro in the fall.
4. iPhone Fold
Apple’s first foldable iPhone appears in the leak as a standalone product, suggesting a major new form factor debut. Seems like after Samsung, Apple is also catching up.
iPads
For iPad lovers there is good news too:
5. Base iPad (A19)
The standard iPad is expected to gain an A19 chip and Apple Intelligence support, marking a meaningful step forward for the entry-level model.
6. iPad Air (M4)
The iPad Air is expected to move to the M4 chip, further narrowing the gap between Air and Pro models.
Macs
There are some Mac products leaks too:
7. Low-cost MacBook with A18 Pro
One of the most surprising leaks. Apple appears to be testing a budget MacBook powered by an iPhone-class chip.
8. M5 MacBook Air
The MacBook Air lineup is expected to refresh with the M5 chip in both 13-inch and 15-inch sizes.
9. M5 MacBook Pro
New 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips are referenced in the leak.
10. Mac Studio (M5 Max and M5 Ultra)
Apple’s high-end desktop Mac is expected to get another performance-focused refresh for professionals.
Smart Home and Audio
Of course Apple couldn’t have left behind smart audio products:
11. AirTag 2
After a long absence, the second-generation AirTag reappears with expected upgrades to tracking range and precision.
12. HomePod mini 2
Apple’s compact smart speaker is due for its first major update since launch.
13. Apple TV (next generation)
A new Apple TV model is in development, likely focusing on performance, gaming, and longevity.
14. Smart Home Hub (tabletop version)
Apple’s long-rumoured home hub appears as a central smart home controller.
15. Smart Home Hub (wall-mounted version)
A second version suggests Apple may offer different form factors depending on placement.
16. New Home Accessory (likely a camera)
An unidentified home device appears in the leak, widely believed to be a camera tied to Apple’s smart home ecosystem.
17. Studio Display 2
A second-generation Studio Display suggests Apple is continuing to invest in external displays for Mac users.
Wearables and Spatial Computing
Just when one thinks it couldn’t get any better, we have some wearable products expecting to be released in 2026 too:
18. Apple Watch Series 12
The next-generation Apple Watch is expected to continue Apple’s annual upgrade cycle.
19. Apple Watch Ultra 4
The rugged Ultra line is also due for a refresh, aimed at outdoor and endurance-focused users.
20. Vision Air
A lighter, more accessible mixed reality headset that would expand Apple’s spatial computing lineup beyond the Vision Pro.
What These Apple Product Leaks Tell Us
The sheer scale of these leaks suggest Apple is testing hardware across nearly every product category.
At the same time, Apple has shown it is willing to delay products, as seen with the postponed iPhone Air 2 and long-absent AirTag update.
If even most of these products launch as planned, 2026 will mark one of the most aggressive hardware years in Apple’s history.
