iOS 14 Leak Reveals iPhone 9 and Updated iPad Pro

There’s a leaked iOS 14 code obtained by 9to5Mac showing details of several apple products such as the upcoming iPhone 9, AppleTV, AirTags, and a new iPad Pro. 9to5Mac has proven an excellent source for Apple-related information.

Triple Camera iPad Pro

First of the leaked code suggests an upcoming iPad Pro refresh that will include a new triple-lens camera setup. The camera setup consists of a 3D time-of-flight sensor, a wide-angle lens, and a telephoto lens. The upgrade further solidifies the “Pro” monitor now that the current generation sports a high refresh-rate screen. The inclusion of a 3D ToF sensor suggests the iPad Pro will support augmented reality features.

iPhone 9 / iPhone SE 2

Apart from the new iPad, the iOS 14 code includes details about the next-generation iPhone 9. The new iPhone 9 will support Touch ID and Express Transit capabilities. The iPhone 9 is marked as an upgrade for iPhone 6 users since the latter doesn’t support Express Transit. Moreover, the new iPhone 9 or the iPhone SE2 is expected to launch this September. That is if it won’t be pushed back due to CoVID-19.

Apple TV Remote

It seems like the Apple TV is also due for an upgrade. Previous versions of the tvOS 13 code revealed that Apple is working on a new Apple TV product, but further information, thanks to the iOS 14 code, shows a new Apple TV remote.

As the name suggests, the app will allow users to download workout guides and is coach assisted via the Apple TV.
