  "account": "The week saw a flurry of leaks from Apple, with the company itself announcing several upcoming products and retailers leaking details about new Beats headphones. In addition, MacRumors examined 30 new features that will be available with iOS 27, set to launch in September.\n\nApple is reportedly developing camera-equipped AirPods, as evidenced by a video found in the macOS Tahoe 26.7 release candidate. In the demo, a person holds a book up to demonstrate the camera's ability to recognize the book's title. However, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman claims that the release will be delayed until the next year.\n\nThe macOS Tahoe 26.7 build contained references to numerous unreleased Apple products, including new Mac, iPhone, and iPad models.

A new Apple TV remote is also rumored, but its design and features remain undisclosed.\n\nApple's Home Hub, a long-awaited product, will include a Widget Gallery and iPhone Widget support.

They'll be available in Pink, Black, Cloud, and Sky colors, with additional cushion shade options like Navy and Volt.
