2026 Apple New Product Lineup: $599 Laptop and First Foldable Screen Revealed

2026 may be Apple's most groundbreaking year in the past five years! First appearance of 2nm chips, the first foldable iPhone, and the Dynamic Island might disappear. To help you plan your device upgrades, I've compiled a list of new products for the next two years.

2026 will be a "big technology year," with 2nm chips and foldable screens fundamentally changing the iPhone product lineup.

Predicted Date	Core Products	Highlight Technologies
March 2026	📱 iPhone 17e / 💻 MacBook Neo (Released)	Lower price range product updates, best choice at the $599 price point
June 2026	⚙️ iOS 27 / 🖥️ Mac Studio M5	First appearance of M5 Max/Ultra chips, doubled computing power
September 2026	📐 iPhone Fold / 📱 iPhone 18 Pro	Under-display Face ID, 2nm A20 chip
Late 2026	🖥️ OLED MacBook Pro / 🏠 Home Hub	OLED comes to laptops; Apple's first smart speaker with a screen

Key Predictions Highlights

1. iPhone 18 Pro: The End of the Dynamic Island?

Apple is expected to debut under-display Face ID technology on the 18 Pro. This means the "pill-shaped" cutout at the top of the screen could shrink to a tiny circular camera, or even disappear completely, achieving a true full-screen display. Combined with the 2nm process A20 Pro chip, energy efficiency will take a quantum leap.

2. iPhone Fold: The Foldable Screen Finally Arrives

Rumors suggest this foldable device will open to 7.6 inches, like a miniaturized iPad mini. To solve the crease problem, Apple has developed special hinges and flexible cover panels. Although pricing might jump straight to $2,500, it will definitely be the traffic driver in the tech world for 2026.

3. iPad mini 8: A Must-Wait for Screen Enthusiasts

If you've been complaining that the mini's screen isn't premium enough, the 2026 mini 8 will switch entirely to OLED screens, eliminating the jelly scrolling effect. It will also replace physical speaker holes with vibration-based sound, maximizing water resistance.

4. Apple AI Smart Glasses: New Wearable Direction

No longer a heavy device like the Vision Pro, but more like Ray-Ban glasses. Without a display screen, it focuses on AI voice interaction + camera environmental recognition. It can help you identify plants while walking, translate menus, or act as a real-world extension of Siri.

: Folding it for $2500 is a bit too much. 折叠2500刀有点过分了

: I think upgrading hardware is pointless now. Most phones on the market already meet the performance needs for everyday use. As for AI, let's talk about it when it can truly integrate. Right now, the practical, assistive applications of AI just aren't effective. Take a very simple task: "AI, please order the Boiled Beef and Dry-Fried Green Beans from Old Sichuan for me, pay with my Amex card, and let me know the estimated delivery time once it's confirmed." Even something this basic is beyond current AI capabilities.

Gary呀呀呀

: Is it true that iPhone is releasing a foldable model? I feel like having a foldable phone isn't really necessary; instead, a foldable iPad would be the real deal.
