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 extra legit than an Apple roadmap that some random man says was caught to the underside of his shoe. What makes this so fascinating is that the roadmap reveals once we ought to see long-awaited merchandise together with a foldable iPhone and the AR-focused Apple spectacles.
If the roadmap is a whole pretend and has nothing to do with Samsung Securities, whoever created it did a superb job by making it appear like it was made previous to final 12 months because it contains forecasts for 2023 that embrace a periscope zoom (the Tetraprism periscope lens is discovered within the
iPhone 15 Professional Max), the Titanium casing for the
iPhone 15 Professional fashions, and some extra issues that actually have been launched final 12 months.
Apple roadmap reveals once we can count on the iPhone SE 4, the foldable iPhone, and AR glasses
For this 12 months, the roadmap mentions the discharge of the
Imaginative and prescient Professional, which has already taken place, the OLED iPad Professional 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 Professional (6.3-inch from 6.1-inch) and the
iPhone 16 Professional Max (6.9-inch from 6.7-inch), and the Tetraprism zoom for each Professional fashions this 12 months.
For subsequent 12 months, 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 Professional line. We also needs to count on to see the 2025 iPhone Professional handsets geared up with 12GB of RAM. The roadmap goes on so as to add that the FaceTime digicam on the iPhone 17 Professional fashions will weigh in at 48MP and embrace optical picture stabilization.
Issues get extra fascinating in 2026 with the roadmap calling for the launch of the primary foldable iPhone! The gadget will sport a 6-inch cowl show and an 8-inch inner display screen. An OLED iPad Air line can 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 gadget that might exchange the iPhone will probably be launched in 2027
2027 is the final 12 months of what we guess was initially a five-year roadmap, and that 12 months will, hopefully, mark my 18th 12 months of getting the privilege of writing about cellular tech at PhoneArena for all of you on the market to learn. Extra importantly, that’s when Apple will lastly launch the gadget that can exchange the iPhone-AR glasses. And I can let you know now that I’m actually wanting ahead to the discharge of that product.
The
Apple Glasses will function 1.4-inch RGB screens that can both be MicroOLED or MicroLED. And lastly, that very same 12 months, we must always count on to see Apple introduce the foldable iPad with a 20-inch show. You would possibly recall that earlier this month, TF Worldwide’s Ming-Chi Kuo mentioned {that a} foldable 20.3-inch MacBook is in improvement and can enter mass manufacturing in 2027.
Will this be precisely how the following few years pan out for Apple and its followers? We must wait till we will put 2027 within the rear-view mirror to let you understand whether or not this was a roadmap with good instructions or one which took us round in circles and by no means acquired us to our vacation spot.
