  • An unboxing leak shows an M5 iPad Pro ahead of announcement, with reporting characterizing the update as a spec bump and raising doubt about previously rumored dual front cameras.
  • A refreshed Apple TV 4K is rumored to move to the A17 Pro chip with Apple Intelligence support, the new N1 wireless chip, and possibly a built‑in Center Stage camera.
  • AirTag 2 is expected to add a new Ultra Wideband chip for longer‑range precision finding and enhanced privacy protections while keeping a similar design and battery system.
