A foldable iPad or Mac was being rumoured to be coming. But we might have to wait a bit more for that, at least according to GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu. He claims the larger foldable Apple device will take a while to reach the market, saying Apple delayed its release internally. However, Pu didn't specify how long the delay will be.
Sunday, July 13, 2025 at 9:57PM If you've been waiting for Apple's take on the smart home hub, unfortunately, you'll have to wait one more year or so. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports the device is most likely coming out in 2026. The cause for the delay is Siri. The Apple Intelligence version of the voice assistant has been pushed back so far, so it makes sense that a device that would be heavily reliant on voice would be delayed.

Apple's long-rumoured homeOS operating system might finally be launching, at least according to the trademark activity spotted by MacRumors.
The news site reports that an apparent shell company, Home Operations Suite LLC, has submitted trademark applications for "HOMEOS" in several countries over the past few months, including Liechtenstein, the US, Argentina, and Peru. The trademark is now registered in Liechtenstein, but the applications are still pending elsewhere.

If the rumours are true, you shouldn't expect a big upgrade for the base iPhone 17 model. While Apple is supposedly increasing its screen size to 6.3 inches, compared with 6.1 inches, that might be the most significant change. A new research note by GF Securities said the iPhone 17 will run on the iPhone 16's A18 chip with 8GB of RAM, despite the rest of the series being powered by the A19 processor and 12GB of RAM.
So, unless you're looking for a bigger screen, it probably won't make sense to upgrade to the iPhone 17 if you're coming from an older base model iPhone. But, as GSMArena pointed out, the lack of change might be a strategy to get you to upgrade to the more expensive models.
