Hardware parade: Apple plans over a dozen new products by early 2027
Apples pipeline is well-filled: According to informed circles, the iPhone company will present more than a dozen new hardware models by spring.

The coming months will be interesting at Apple: According to insiders, up to 15 new products will be delivered by the beginning of next year. This includes new device variants that do not yet exist in this form. The new iPhones will kick things off next week, for which Apple is inviting to a keynote on Wednesday (September 9th).
Product flood already next week?
The Apple event could bring up to seven new products, possibly nine. The iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max and the new foldable, which will likely be called iPhone Ultra, seem to be set. Product numbers four and five are two new Apple Watch models, the Series 12 (presumably also available in ceramic upon request) and the Ultra 4.

New AirPods of the fifth generation are also expected, as well as possibly a completely new product, the “Home Hub” for HomeKit control in versions with and without a speaker dock. If Apple is good to its customers, HomePod Mini 2 and a new Apple TV 4K with a faster chip and Siri AI will finally arrive. That would be a total of nine possible new devices that Apple could show at one event.
Hardware News Number 10 to 15
But it will likely not stop there until spring 2027. Well-informed Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman believes that by then, at least an iPad mini with an OLED display and A19 chip, an iMac with an M6 chip, a 14-inch MacBook Pro with an M6 chip, and two MacBook Ultra variants (14 and 16 inches) with OLED and touchscreen are planned. Finally, it is also known that Apple has a new Beats over-ear headphones called 360 firmly in planning. Its hardware details had already been leaked.
In terms of rollout, it is conceivable that Apple will make a big start with the event next week, which runs under the slogan “Surprise and shine” – and then, as has been customary for years, follow up in October with a Mac and iPad event. Alternatively, the company could simply introduce individual products via press release. This was the case with the Mac mini M5 Pro and M6, as well as Mac Studio M5 Max and M5 Ultra – at a time in August that was very unusual for Apple. The keynote on September 9th will be accompanied by Mac & i and heise online with a live ticker, as always.
