Exciting Apple roadmap reveals when to expect iPhone SE 4, foldable iPhone, AR glasses, and more،
Now this is exciting. Leak
@Tech_Reve (via
Wccftech) tweeted an Apple product roadmap from Samsung Securities. The latter is a subsidiary of the
Samsung Group and is a financial services company headquartered in Seoul, South Korea. So this seems to be more legitimate than an Apple roadmap that some random guy said was stuck to the bottom of his shoe. What makes this so interesting is that the roadmap reveals when we should see long-awaited products, including a foldable
iPhone and Apple's augmented reality-focused glasses.
If the roadmap is completely bogus and has nothing to do with Samsung Securities, whoever created it did a brilliant job of making it look like it was made before last year because it includes predictions for 2023 that include a periscope zoom (the periscope Tetraprism lens is found in the iPhone 15
Pro Max), the titanium body for the iPhone 15 Pro models, and a few other things that were actually introduced last year .
Apple's roadmap reveals when we can expect iPhone SE 4, foldable iPhone and AR glasses
For this year, the roadmap mentions the release of the Vision Pro, which has already happened, OLED iPad Pro models expected to release later this month or next month, and a few other well-traveled rumors like the biggest screen sizes for iPhone 16 Pro (6.3 inches from 6.1 inches) and iPhone 16 Pro Max (6.9 inches from 6.7 inches), and Tetraprism zoom for two Pro models this year.
For next year, 2025, the roadmap picks up some previously mentioned rumors, including the release of the iPhone SE 4 with a 6.1-inch OLED screen and a 48 MP rear
camera, and the 48-inch triple cameras PM expected on the iPhone. 17 Pro Line. We should also expect to see iPhone Pro 2025 handsets equipped with 12GB of RAM. The roadmap then adds that the FaceTime camera on the iPhone 17 Pro models will weigh 48 MP and include optical image stabilization.
Things get more interesting in 2026 with the roadmap predicting the launch of the first foldable iPhone! The device will sport a 6-inch cover display and an 8-inch internal display. An OLED range of iPad Air will also see the light of day in 2026 specifies the roadmap, with an 8.4-inch model and a 10.9-inch model. And while we're talking OLED, 14- and 16-inch OLED MacBooks are listed for 2026.
The device that could replace the iPhone will be released in 2027
2027 is the final year of what we believe was originally a five-year roadmap, and this year will hopefully mark my 18th year of having the privilege of writing about mobile technology on TelephoneArena for all of you to read. More importantly, this is when Apple will finally release the device that will replace the iPhone-AR glasses. And I can tell you now that I'm really looking forward to the release of this product.
The Apple Glasses will feature 1.4-inch RGB displays that will be either MicroOLED or MicroLED. And finally, this same year, we should expect to see Apple present the foldable iPad with a 20-inch screen. You may recall that earlier this month, TF International's Ming-Chi Kuo said a 20.3-inch foldable MacBook was in development and would enter mass production in 2027.
Is this exactly how the next few years will play out for Apple and its fans? We will have to wait until we can put 2027 in the rearview mirror to tell you if it was a road map with good directions or a sheet that took us in circles without ever arriving at our destination.
