The plan also makes clear aspirations for new product categories, such as foldable devices and augmented reality glasses.

The business is said to intend to unveil the first foldable iPhone in 2026.

It is said to sport an 8-inch inner display, a 6-inch outer screen, LLW DRAM, and an under-display IR sensor.

An OLED version of the iPad mini, coming with an 8.4-inch screen, along with the 10.9-inch version of the iPad Air, might be released that year; the lineup will also get an OLED MacBook with 14- and 16-inch versions of its screen.

Besides that, it is reported that Apple has already been preparing AR Glasses and a foldable 20-inch iPad, which are going to appear in 2027.

The AR Glasses will mark Apple’s entry into the augmented reality hardware market and are said to sport 1.4-inch RGB screens with MicroOLED or MicroLED panels.

He also says that a slightly more affordable version of the Vision Pro XR headset is planned for next year, 2026, which should make the technology a little more accessible to a larger variety of users.

I guess it doesn’t come as any surprise that the roadmap does give an intriguing look at Apple’s upcoming product portfolio, demonstrating the company’s desire to push boundaries and release cutting-edge devices across several categories, including foldable smartphones, even though leaks should always be taken with a grain of salt.
