Apple may have already had a busy start to the year, but fresh leaks now suggest that the company is preparing an even bigger wave of launches in the coming months. According to recent reports, Apple could introduce close to 11 new devices before the end of the year, covering almost every major product category it operates in.
The expected lineup includes new iPhones, iPads, Macs and Apple Watch models, along with a few entirely new additions. While Apple has not confirmed any of these plans, the number of devices being talked about gives a rough idea of how packed its product pipeline could be in 2026.
Apple is likely to launch iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max models soon
Among all the expected launches, the iPhone 18 Pro series is likely to be the centre of attention. Early information suggests that both the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max could bring noticeable improvements, especially in design and camera performance.
Apple is said to be working on a cleaner front design by moving Face ID components under the display. If this change makes it to the final product, the current Dynamic Island could either shrink further or be removed altogether. The front camera, in that case, may sit inside a small cutout, giving users more uninterrupted screen space.
Camera upgrades are also being discussed. The Pro models could introduce a variable aperture on one of the rear lenses, allowing better control over lighting and depth in photos. There are also indications of a new sensor that may improve image quality in low-light conditions.
Under the hood, the iPhone 18 Pro models are expected to run on a new A20 Pro chip. This upgrade could bring better performance and improved efficiency, along with stronger support for on-device AI features. The Pro Max version may also come with a larger battery, which could require a slightly thicker design.
Apple is said to launch 9 more devices this year: Full list
Apart from the Pro models, Apple is also believed to be developing a foldable iPhone. The device is tipped to feature a large inner display and a secondary outer screen, along with software features designed for multitasking.
The rest of the expected launches include updates to the iPad lineup. The iPad 12 could arrive with a faster chip and support for Apple Intelligence, while the iPad mini may see upgrades like an OLED display and improved build quality.
Mac devices are also part of the rumoured list. The Mac Studio, Mac mini and iMac are expected to get next-generation M5 chips. Additionally, Apple may be working on a redesigned MacBook Pro with an OLED display, although that device could arrive later in the year.
Wearables are unlikely to be left behind. The Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra are also expected to be refreshed with new hardware.
Alongside these, Apple is said to be planning a smart home hub, as well as updates to Apple TV and HomePod devices. These products could arrive once the company rolls out a more personalised version of Siri.
While details around launch timelines are still unclear, the overall picture suggests that Apple is preparing for a year filled with multiple product announcements.
