Abstract:
Apple will release a series of new products at its "Surprise and Shine" event on Wednesday, but the new batch of product identifiers that appear in the background do not necessarily correspond to what will be announced that day. These identifiers provide little direct information about the product itself or when it was released. In many cases, the outside world only knows what device they correspond to after the product has entered official documentation.
It is said that 37 new hardware identifiers have appeared in Apple's backend list, covering iPhone, Mac, iPad, Apple Watch, and other product categories. Clues come from information posted on social platforms by code analyst Aaron Perris, in which at least one identifier remains unclear as to which device it corresponds to.

In this batch of identifiers, the iPhone has a total of 7 new numbers, but only 6 models are currently known to be launched, including iPhone 18e, iPhone 18, iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, iPhone Ultra and iPhone Air 2. The seventh device could be a different size version of a known model, such as a derivative of the iPhone Air 2 or iPhone 18e, or it could be another yet-to-be-disclosed product.
In addition to the iPhone, this list also includes later model identifiers for several Macs, iPads, and Apple Watches, as well as the Apple TV 18,1 and multiple HomeAccessory numbers. This information generally points to Apple preparing a new M6 Mac, iPad updates, different material versions of Apple Watch, as well as new Apple TVs that may be equipped with stronger chips and home accessories such as the upcoming Home Hub.
However, just because these identifiers appear in Apple's backend does not necessarily mean they will be announced at Wednesday's event. They may just be added to the background by mistake, or appear for regulatory and other reasons; based on current information, the only thing that is certain is that Apple is indeed promoting the development of more new products.
