Apple readies 2026 lineup with iPhone 17e, new Siri, and more

Apple is gearing up for a busy 2026 lineup, led by the iPhone 17e and a redesigned Siri, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. The company is also said to be refreshing its entry-level iPad, iPad Air, and MacBook Pro models.

The iPhone 17e is expected to serve as Apple’s more affordable option alongside its flagship devices. While details are still limited, the goal is to give users a cheaper entry point into the iPhone ecosystem.

Alongside the new phone, Apple is preparing an updated version of Siri. The upgrade is part of its broader push into artificial intelligence, aimed at making the voice assistant more useful and responsive. This could be the one linked to Google’s Gemini, which Apple has tapped to power Siri’s AI features.
