iPhone Trade-In Values Slide Ahead of New Model Launch
Ahead of the announcement of the iPhone 18 Pro , iPhone 18 Pro Max, and first foldable iPhone next month, a new study from trade-in comparison site SellCell finds that most iPhones lose a considerable amount of trade-in value in the 10-day window between Apple's announcement and the actual product launch. Looking at the launch of the iPhone 15, iPhone 16 , and iPhone 17 lineups, SellCell found that trade-in values dropped for 117 of 156 models tracked, or 75% of the total, between announcement day and release day. That window saw the steepest declines for the iPhone 17 lineup last year, with 50 of 54 iPhone models (92.6%) losing value, with an average drop of $36.46 per device. The largest individual declines came from older models still on the trade-in market at the time. The iPhone 16 Plus 512GB fell from $695 to $566, a $129 drop and the largest loss in the dataset. The iPhone 15 Plus 128GB saw the steepest percentage decline, falling from $440 to $351, a loss of 20.2%. SellCell paired the pricing data with a survey of 2,000 U.S. iPhone users. 61.4% of respondents said they plan to keep their current iPhone until a replacement is in hand and set up, rather than trading it in around the announcement. The most common reasons cited were needing the phone for continued use and needing to transfer data, which together accounted for 77.4% of responses. Apple updated and largely increased its own official trade-in estimates last month ahead of the iPhone 18 Pro and foldable iPhone announcement.

New iPad Mini With Four Upgrades Expected to Launch by Late October
Apple is planning to release a new iPad mini model with an OLED display y the end of October this year, according to Bloomberg 's Mark Gurman . Apple already updated the iPad Pro with an OLED display in May 2024, but the iPad mini, iPad Air, and entry-level iPad are all still equipped with LCD screens. The move to OLED technology would result in the next iPad mini offering improved image quality, thanks to richer colors and higher contrast ratio with true blacks. Given that OLED displays are generally more expensive than LCDs, the next iPad mini could have a higher starting price compared to the current model. Gurman did not provide any other details about the next iPad mini today, but he previously reported that the device would receive a new type of speaker system and increased water resistance . The next iPad mini is also rumored to be powered by either an A19 Pro or A20 chip , up from the A17 Pro chip in the current model. The current model launched in October 2024, with the A17 Pro chip enabling Apple Intelligence.

New Mac Mini Reportedly Set to Launch Before iPhone 18 Pro Event
Apple plans to unveil a new Mac mini in the coming days, according to the latest word from Bloomberg 's Mark Gurman . The new Mac mini will potentially be unveiled before the iPhone 18 Pro event, which is likely to take place on Wednesday, September 9 , the report said. Gurman said the new Mac mini will likely be Apple's final new product unveiled before Tim Cook steps down as CEO on September 1 , and if so, then it would need to be announced before August ends. Apple has tested versions of the Mac mini with both M5 and M6 chips, according to Gurman, but it remains unclear which generation of chips Apple ultimately plans to use in the next model. Currently, the Mac mini can be configured with a standard M4 chip or a higher-end M4 Pro chip, 16GB to 48GB of RAM, and up to 8TB of storage. At the start of May, Apple stopped offering the Mac mini with 256GB of storage for $599, resulting in a 512GB model for $799 becoming the lowest-priced configuration available. Then, in late June, Apple reintroduced the 256GB configuration for $799 after raising prices on all Macs and iPads, the Apple TV, HomePods, and the Vision Pro. Due to the rising popularity of the Mac mini for on-device AI models, combined with the ongoing memory chip shortage, the Mac mini has been facing extended delivery estimates over the past few months. Currently, the Mac mini has a 4-10 week delivery estimate on Apple's online store in the U.S. depending on the configuration. In February, Apple announced that Foxconn would begin assembling some Mac mini units at a factory in Houston, Texas later this year. The facility opened this month , with Cook joining U.S. government officials to celebrate the grand opening. So, perhaps Apple's announcement for the new Mac mini will emphasize U.S. assembly.

Home Hub Code Hints at Face-Based Profile Switching
Apple's upcoming home hub will support multiple profiles and will include ambient sensing for identity verification, according to code we found in the macOS Tahoe 26.7 update. The accessory will show Personal Content for different users in the home, with options to select a profile via Control Center or the Settings app on the device. The home hub is expected to have an operating system similar to tvOS, so the Control Center and profile selection options might look like those on the Apple TV . It sounds like the home hub can switch between profiles automatically using some combination of cameras and sensors, based on the mentions of ambient sensing. The device is rumored to include cameras and a presence-sensing feature to determine when someone is in the room, so it will be able to tell who is near it and switch profiles appropriately. Here are some of the code strings. Sorry, I'm not sure who you are. To access your Personal Content, you'll need to select yourself in Control Center. Before I can help with that, you'll need to enable Personal Content. In the Settings app, tap on your name, and turn on Personal Content. I'm not sure who's speaking.

To access your Personal Content, you'll need to select yourself in Control Center and temporarily allow ambient sensing to verify your identity. There are also mentions of a wall-mounted version of the home hub, confirming that there will be two models. The other version will include a speaker base. Rumors suggest the home hub will have a square, 7-inch display. It will run apps and have a main home screen with quick-access widgets . We could see the home hub announced as soon as September.

Apple today said it is reversing its decision and will not change the email domain used for the iCloud + Hide My Email feature. Emails sent using Hide My Email will continue to use the same icloud.com domain that Apple uses for standard iCloud emails. In June, Apple said it would unify the email domains used by Sign in with Apple and Hide My Email under a single private.icloud.com domain. iPhone users expressed concern that moving Hide My Email to a private.icloud.com domain instead of icloud.com would let platforms easily block iCloud aliases . Using the same domain for iCloud and Hide My Email makes it hard for services to block the disposable iCloud addresses because doing so would also block legitimate users. Apple said after further consideration and reviewing feedback from the community, it will not make the change. Sign in with Apple addresses will be issued through private.icloud.com instead of privaterelay.appleid.com starting later this year. There will be no update for Hide My Email addresses. Sign in with Apple addresses created before the change will continue to be forwarded without interruption. Apple says developers with apps or websites that use Sign in with Apple should make sure their systems allow the private.icloud.com domain in addition to privaterelay.appleid.com. Hide My Email is a paid iCloud feature that allows users to generate unique email addresses for each website or service, with options to deactivate and delete those addresses at any time. Hide My Email addresses are forwarded to a user's real email address, which is hidden from the site or service.
