Multiple reports citing Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman describe a possible Apple hardware push spanning late 2027. The most consistent claim across outlets is that Apple is working on AirPods with built-in cameras and that their release is targeted for late 2027. Gurman also links the earbuds’ timeline with Apple’s next foldable iPhone, described as a second-generation foldable model. Several sources say the camera-equipped AirPods would launch alongside this upgraded foldable iPhone, rather than as a standalone product.

Additional rumored products mentioned in the coverage include smart glasses and a special 20th-anniversary iPhone, with some outlets framing the overall plan as one of Apple’s most ambitious release waves. While the reports converge on the camera AirPods and second foldable iPhone arriving in late 2027, details on the specific features, pricing, and final product lineup vary by outlet and remain unconfirmed by Apple. Apple does not officially comment on unannounced product plans in these reports.
