Apple's macOS Tahoe 26.7 RC has references to unreleased products: a Home Hub, home accessories, new Beats, AirPods Pro 4, Apple Intelligence in China, and more (Juli Clover/MacRumors)

The macOS Tahoe 26.7 release candidate that Apple seeded today has references to several unreleased products, from home devices to iPhones, iPads, AirPods, and Macs.

Apple's macOS Tahoe 26.7 release candidate contains references to several unreleased products. According to MacRumors, these include a Home Hub, home accessories, new Beats, AirPods Pro 4, and Apple Intelligence in China.

The release candidate also includes a video demonstrating camera-equipped AirPods, which are said to be able to take in visual information and work with Visual Intelligence. In the video, a user holds up a book so the AirPods camera can read its title, and a Siri voiceover explains that the feature allows users to save information from the real world. The camera-equipped AirPods are reportedly codenamed B790 and are designed to support AI-powered recognition and recall.

Other reports suggest that Apple's software includes a warning for situations in which the AirPods' cameras are blocked, and that the feature could allow Siri to answer questions about nearby objects and save information a user wants to recall later. The Verge notes that the AirPods in the video look like a chunkier version of Apple's AirPods Pro 3. Business Standard IN also mentions a foldable iPhone, but this is not corroborated by other sources.
