Biggest Apple leak yet? Code leak hints at massive lineup of devices in 7 categories
:
In what could be Apple's biggest internal leak in years, a set of unannounced products has been uncovered through internal identifiers embedded in publicly available Apple software, according to a report. The leak hints at a sweeping refresh across nearly every major product category, ranging from iPads and Apple Watch to a new Vision Pro, updated Apple TV, and even a second-gen Studio Display, as per a Fortune report.
The leaked information comes from identifiers and documentation located in Apple's own software code, according to the report. The tech giant's software regularly includes device strings, codenames, and chip references that surface before the hardware comes out, often confirming families and classes, if not final specs and the identifiers coherently map Apple's late‑2025 to 2026 pipeline, as reported by Fortune.

Dollar braces for busy week of geopolitics and Fed speak
The dollar dithered on Monday ahead of a key meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskiy, while investors also looked ahead to the Federal Reserve 's Jackson Hole symposium for more policy clues. Currency moves were largely subdued in the early Asia session, though the dollar steadied after last week's fall as traders further pared back bets of a jumbo Fed cut next month. Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Access all TV channels anywhere, anytime Techno Mag Learn More Undo by Taboola by Taboola The euro was little changed at $1.1705, while sterling edged up 0.07% to $1.3557. Against a basket of currencies, the dollar advanced slightly to 97.85, after losing 0.4% last week. Markets are now pricing in an 84% chance the Fed would ease rates by a quarter point next month, down from 98% last week, after a raft of data including a jump in U.S. wholesale prices last month and a solid increase in July's retail sales figures dimmed the prospect of an oversized 50-basis-point cut. Live Events "While the data don't all point in the same direction, the U.S. economy looks to be in okay shape in the third quarter," said Bill Adams, chief economist at Comerica Bank. "The Fed is likely to cut interest rates by year-end, either in September, when markets now price in a cut, or a few months later, when Comerica forecasts a cut." The main event for investors on Monday is a meeting between Trump and Zelenskiy, who will be joined by some European leaders, as Washington presses Ukraine to accept a quick peace deal to end Europe's deadliest war in 80 years. Trump is leaning on Zelenskiy to strike an agreement after he met Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin in Alaska and emerged more aligned with Moscow on seeking a peace deal instead of a ceasefire first. Also key for markets this week will be the Kansas City Federal Reserve's August 21-23 Jackson Hole symposium, where Fed Chair Jerome Powell is due to speak on the economic outlook and the central bank's policy framework. "I think (Powell) will also talk about the current economic conditions in the U.S., and that will be more policy relevant, that will be more interesting to markets," said Joseph Capurso, head of international and sustainable economics at Commonwealth Bank of Australia. "Given market pricing is very high for a rate cut in September, I think the risk is that Powell is hawkish, or is perceived to be hawkish, if he gives a balanced view of the U.S. economy." In other currencies, the dollar rose 0.11% against the yen to 147.34, after falling roughly 0.4% last week. Japan's government on Friday brushed aside rare and explicit comments from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent who said the Bank of Japan was "behind the curve" on policy, which appeared to be aimed at pressuring the country's central bank into raising interest rates. The Australian dollar was up 0.1% at $0.65145, while the New Zealand dollar rose 0.15% to $0.5934, after falling 0.5% last week.

Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max To Pack Its Largest Battery Ever? Here's What The Reports Say
Last Updated: Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max could have some major changes this year but could it also get a battery upgrade? Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max is promising a host of upgrades when it launches in September but one of its biggest changes could also be its most important in years. The company seems to have focused on making the new iPhone 17 Pro lineup look different from its predecessor but the camera is also getting some neat additions, both on the software and hardware side. Now, a leak suggests Apple could change the internal dynamics of the iPhone 17 Pro Max by packing in a larger battery, its biggest on an iPhone ever. Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max Battery Upgrade The leak about the Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max getting a larger battery has been mentioned by a tipster from Korea this week. The leak even has the alleged iPhone 17 Pro Max render which suggests Apple could offer a 5,000mAh battery with its changed internals that allows the brand to accommodate a bigger unit. Last year's premium iPhone 16 Pro model had a 4,685mAh battery and if the mentioned bump does come through, it will be the same as Samsung's Galaxy S25 Ultra model that came out earlier this year. However, the charging speed for the new iPhone 17 Pro models is unlikely to change and no charger in the box once again. Apple is tipped to offer a new telephoto lens with up to 8x optical zoom which is higher than the 5x optical range available with the iPhone 16 Pro models. Apple is rumoured to be taking the camera bar route with the iPhone 17 Pro series and the leaks have vouched for the change. People have criticised the size of the camera bump for the last few years, this module will at least allow Apple to balance the profile at the back. The company is also expected to bring a new pro camera app which works for photos and videos. The report says the app will be designed to compete with other Pro-level iOS apps for the camera. Apple could bring a full set of 48MP sensors for its triple camera system with this year's iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max models. view comments First Published: August 18, 2025, 07:35 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
