Apple has already launched many new products this year, but there are another six product debuts rumored that could happen in the weeks and months ahead.
HomePod mini 2 and HomePod 3
Apple’s long-delayed ‘HomePad’ or ‘HomePod Touch’ product reportedly won’t launch until September. But rumors indicate we could see other HomePod devices sooner.
Mark Gurman wrote in his newsletter this weekend that HomePod mini and HomePod supply is low at Apple Stores. He says this could point to hardware refreshes happening soon.
HomePod mini 2 has reportedly been ready for some time, but held back due to Siri delays. It’s rumored, though, that iOS 26.5 might bring some of Siri’s AI upgrades—thus enabling Apple to ship the product at last.
Rumors of a new full-size HomePod have been minimal, but it would make sense for Apple to upgrade it with AI at the same time as HomePod mini. Otherwise, the more expensive, larger model would immediately feel more dated than it actually is.
New Apple TV 4K
Alongside signs of new HomePods, Gurman says stock of the Apple TV 4K is running low too.
We’ve long been expecting a new Apple TV 4K with an A17 Pro or A18 chip for Apple Intelligence support.
Similar to the HomePod, if some of Siri’s upgrades do arrive in the iOS 26.5 cycle, then the timing could be right for the Apple TV 4K update to arrive too.
Outside of the new A-series chip, the Apple TV 4K is also expected to gain an N1 wireless chip. A built-in camera is an outside possibility too.
M5 Mac Studio and Mac mini
Apple just launched new M5 MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models. But rumors say two more M5 Macs will launch soon: a new Mac Studio and Mac mini.
The next Mac Studio is expected to offer M5 Max and M5 Ultra chip versions—bringing the first ‘Ultra’ chip since M3 Ultra. The Mac mini, meanwhile, will offer M5 and M5 Pro chips.
No design updates for either product are rumored. Current…
