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 companies 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 attention-grabbing is that the roadmap reveals after we ought to 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 previous to final yr 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 basically had been launched final yr.
Apple roadmap reveals after we can anticipate the iPhone SE 4, the foldable iPhone, and AR glasses
For this yr, 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 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 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 Professional line. We must also anticipate 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 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. An OLED iPad Air line may 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 cell tech at PhoneArena for all of you on the market to learn. Extra importantly, that’s when Apple will lastly launch the system that can change the iPhone-AR glasses. And I can let you know now that I’m actually trying 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 yr, we must always anticipate 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 stated {that a} foldable 20.3-inch MacBook is in growth and can enter mass manufacturing in 2027.
Will this be precisely how the subsequent few years pan out for Apple and its followers? We should wait till we will put 2027 within the rear-view mirror to let you recognize whether or not this was a roadmap with good instructions or one which took us round in circles and by no means obtained us to our vacation spot.
