Apple inadvertently left a lot of feature flags visible in its macOS Tahoe 26.7 release candidate, which include references to products like AirPods with cameras, the OLED iPad mini, and more.
Developer betas are one of the easiest ways for Apple to accidentally share future product information. It has occurred before, like during iOS 26 testing, and has happened again on Monday.
According to information discovered by MacRumors in the macOS Tahoe 26.7 release candidate, Apple has many new products in development. Some are known from previous leaks, while others have designators that can't be tied to any other product.
The various product identifiers reference products like a future Apple Vision Pro and Home Hub product. There are also references to Apple Intelligence in China and the upcoming foldable iPhone that some call "iPhone Ultra."
The following product identifiers are referenced in the macOS Tahoe 26.7 release candidate:
There are also references to "Pebble," which has been previously reported as the codename for Apple's rumored homeOS platform.
Other tidbits include colors like rose, pink, silver, space gray, and starlight. These could be used for a product like the next-generation HomePod mini.
HomeAAccessory17,2 and HomeAccessory17,3 were also spotted, though it isn't clear what these products might be. A mention of "audio_accessory_visual_reasoning" code string was also found, which could be used by a Home Hub with a camera.
Code also mentions AirPodsPro1,4, which would reference a fourth-generation AirPods Pro. There is also a reference to AirPod3,5.
An updated Apple TV remote was also referenced with ATVRemote1,5. A new Apple TV could be revealed at any time with an updated remote.
There are also a ton of product identifiers that don't have an obvious product tied to them. They are:
These were found in feature flags that should have been turned off before publishing the macOS Tahoe 26.7 release candidate. Mistakes do happen, and while this isn't too critical of a leak, it is still quite the insight into Apple's upcoming product release cycle.
