New Apple Hardware Coming
Apple Prepares October Unveil for Foldable iPhone and New Smart Home Devices
Anonymous
Apple is expected to unveil several products in October, including the foldable iPhone Duo, a new Apple TV 4K, an updated HomePod mini, and a screen-equipped smart-home hub, alongside software updates. Reports say the Apple TV could gain a newer A-series chip and Siri AI support; a new full-size HomePod is reportedly not part of the launches. The standard iPhone 18 and budget iPhone 18e are not expected next month. Separately, CEO John Ternus is reportedly considering faster, year-round product launches, a leaner organization, and tighter spending to accelerate development and compete in AI. These changes could take years, while job cuts and restructuring are already underway in several teams.
