A massive leak tied to iOS 26 has just cracked open Apple’s next two years of product plans revealing over 30 unreleased devices, from the iPhone 18 Pro and a foldable iPhone to a cheaper MacBook powered by an iPhone chip. The source? A prototype running early iOS 26 code, reportedly sold with the internal version “23A5234w” and labeled as iOS 19.
iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Fold lead the lineup
Among the most anticipated reveals are the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, both scheduled for release in fall 2026. The leak also confirms an iPhone Fold under the codename V68, hinting at Apple’s long-awaited entry into foldable phones. Earlier rumors pegged its release for late 2026 and now, that window seems more likely than ever.
Apple plans to launch a new budget iPhone, the iPhone 17e, in early 2026. This model could mark a refreshed entry point in the lineup. The leak also mentions an iPhone Air 2 for early 2027, though Apple hasn’t revealed any specs or features yet.
Budget MacBook to run on iPhone A18 chip
The Mac lineup includes a notable curveball: a MacBook using the Apple A18 Pro, an iPhone-class processor. This signals a potential return to more affordable MacBooks built for everyday users rather than pros. Set for early 2026, this model could revive the low-cost MacBook category many had assumed was gone for good.
Apple’s 2026 hardware roadmap at a glance
Here are just some of the key products revealed in the leaked iOS 26 beta:
- iPhone 18 Pro / Pro Max, iPhone Fold, iPhone 17e, iPhone Air 2
- MacBook with A18 Pro, 14″/16″ MacBook Pro with M5 and M6 chips
- Mac mini and Mac Studio with M5 Pro / Ultra
- Apple Studio Display 2 and new iPad Air M4
- AirTag 2, HomePod with stand, HomePod mini 2
- Apple Watch Series 12 and Watch Ultra 4
- Vision Pro 2 and Vision Air AR headset
The leak even reveals codenames for unannounced chips, including Apple M6, A20 Pro, and U3 ultra-wideband silicon. While a few prototypes like AR glasses and Mac-linked video specs appear to be canceled, most are clearly heading into production.
Apple’s next wave mixes premium and accessible hardware
What stands out is Apple’s dual strategy: blending premium innovations like folding screens and AR headsets with cheaper devices like the MacBook A18 and iPhone 17e. The mix shows Apple wants to expand reach without sacrificing ambition. If this leak holds true, 2026 and early 2027 may be Apple’s most crowded and most experimental release cycle in years.
