Now that is thrilling. Leaker
@Tech_Reve (by way of Wccftech) tweeted a roadmap of Apple merchandise that was sourced from Samsung Securities. The latter is a subsidiary of Samsung Group and is a monetary providers firm headquartered in Seoul, South Korea. So this appears to be more legit than an Apple roadmap that some random man says was caught to the underside of his shoe. What makes this so attention-grabbing is that the roadmap reveals when we must always see long-awaited merchandise together with a foldable iPhone and the AR-focused Apple spectacles.
If the roadmap is an entire pretend and has nothing to do with Samsung Securities, whoever created it did an excellent job by making it appear to be it was made prior to final yr because it contains forecasts for 2023 that embrace a periscope zoom (the Tetraprism periscope lens is discovered within the iPhone 15 Pro Max), the Titanium casing for the iPhone 15 Pro fashions, and a couple of more issues that actually had been launched final yr.
Apple roadmap reveals when we are able to expect the iPhone SE 4, the foldable iPhone, and AR glasses
For this yr, the roadmap mentions the discharge of the Vision Pro, which has already taken place, the OLED iPad Pro fashions anticipated to be launched as quickly as later this month or subsequent month, and another well-traveled rumors such because the bigger display screen sizes for the iPhone 16 Pro (6.3-inch from 6.1-inch) and the iPhone 16 Pro Max (6.9-inch from 6.7-inch), and the Tetraprism zoom for each Pro fashions this yr.
For subsequent yr, 2025, the roadmap as soon as once more trots out some beforehand talked about rumors from the rumor mill together with the discharge of the iPhone SE 4 with a 6.1-inch OLED show and a 48MP rear digicam, and the triple 48MP cameras anticipated on the iPhone 17 Pro line. We must also expect to see the 2025 iPhone Pro handsets outfitted with 12GB of RAM. The roadmap goes on to add that the FaceTime digicam on the iPhone 17 Pro fashions will weigh in at 48MP and embrace optical picture stabilization.
Things get more attention-grabbing in 2026 with the roadmap calling for the launch of the primary foldable iPhone! The system will sport a 6-inch cowl show and an 8-inch inner display screen. An OLED iPad Air line will even see the sunshine of day in 2026 says the roadmap, with an 8.4-inch mannequin and a ten.9-inch mannequin. And whereas we’re speaking about OLED, 14-inch and 16-inch OLED MacBooks are listed for 2026.
The system that might change the iPhone will probably be launched in 2027
2027 is the final yr of what we guess was initially a five-year roadmap, and that yr will, hopefully, mark my 18th yr of getting the privilege of writing about cellular tech at PhoneArena for all of you on the market to learn. More importantly, that’s when Apple will lastly launch the system that may change the iPhone-AR glasses. And I can inform you now that I’m actually wanting ahead to the discharge of that product.
The Apple Glasses will function 1.4-inch RGB screens that may both be MicroOLED or MicroLED. And lastly, that very same yr, we must always expect to see Apple introduce the foldable iPad with a 20-inch show. You would possibly recall that earlier this month, TF International’s Ming-Chi Kuo stated {that a} foldable 20.3-inch MacBook is in growth and will enter mass manufacturing in 2027.
Will this be precisely how the following few years pan out for Apple and its followers? We may have to wait till we are able to put 2027 within the rear-view mirror to let you already know whether or not this was a roadmap with good instructions or one which took us round in circles and by no means bought us to our vacation spot.
