According to new reports, Apple is planning to unveil a variety of new products in 2026. Flagship devices like an affordable iPhone and smart glasses might come into view. All the efforts are geared towards marking Apple’s 50th anniversary. We can expect major upgrades in Apple’s product lineup.
Here is the breakdown of the rollout of Apple’s new devices in 2026. During the early part of 2026, Apple’s most affordable iPhone in the form of the iPhone 17e will emerge. The rumour mill suggests that it will utilise the iPhone 17’s A19 chip and could possess a fresh design and dynamic island in the place of the notch on the current iPhone 16e. In the case of iPads, the entry-level model is expected to come with an A18 chip, which is an improvement over the A16 version. Also, the iPad Air will be updated with an M4 chip in place of the M3.
What to expect between March and April
AI and OS upgrade for June
Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) will take place in June 2026. This is where the company previews its latest software updates and operating system developments. This will be perfect for revealing the iOS 27, macOS 27, watchOS 27 and many more.
Still, according to Gurman, there will likely be significant changes in Apple’s intelligence and the broader AI strategy at Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2026. Apple’s intelligence has thrived in the rapidly expanding artificial intelligence (AI) market. Apple will soon go all out so that customers will be convinced that its AI offerings are on the right track.
September plans
In September 2026, Apple fans will welcome the iPhone 18 series , which will sport Apple’s in-house C2 modem. The news is that Apple might finally release its much-anticipated foldable iPhone after many years of speculation.
According to Gurman, Apple is also working on its smart glasses . It shouldn’t be surprising if we get a preview of the company’s first smart glasses before the end of 2026. We’ll be on the lookout.
Lastly, Apple will be rolling out a new iPad mini. We don’t know when exactly, but rumours suggest it will likely be in September 2026 since the latest model was launched in October 2024. The iPad Pro won’t be getting any major hardware update until 2027, following the company’s 18-month upgrade cycle for the Pro line.

What generative AI does is use other people’s work to deliver information. It’s basically recycling what it has seen. AI summaries turn large, complex data into brief, simpler details. Now that technology is coming to the Google Play Store.
With AI integrated into many popular apps, it was about time Google did the same for the Play Store. Google is rolling out AI-powered app reviews to the Play Store. Soon, you will be able to see AI-generated summaries based on user app reviews. You no longer have to read through hundreds of reviews to decide if an app is worth it.
When these AI summaries get to your account, there will be a clear bold caption “Users are saying” under the Ratings and reviews section of the Play Store app listings. This heading will contain the summary of all the reviews of an app. The summary will be a paragraph long, highlighting the common positive and negative points across that app’s user reviews.
AI-generated app review summaries are available in version 48.5.23-31 of the Play Store, and are yet to roll out to some devices like the Pixel 9 Pro.
To find the specific reviews that talk about a mentioned aspect of an app, check under the text summary. There you will find a selection of chips that will fetch the reviews, similar to how AI Overview works in Chrome.
