Leaks reveal a new Apple HomePod mini, iPad mini, and Apple TV 4K

泄露消息揭示新款 Apple HomePod mini、iPad mini 和 Apple TV 4K

Apple is expected to announce more hardware before the end of the year following the debut of the iPhone 18 Pro and folding iPhone Duo earlier this month. The updated products will include a new version of the HomePod mini, the iPad mini 8, and the Apple TV 4K, according to details and images discovered in Apple’s own code by MacRumors contributor Aaron Perris.

继本月初 iPhone 18 Pro 和折叠屏 iPhone Duo 发布后，预计苹果将在今年年底前发布更多硬件产品。据 MacRumors 撰稿人 Aaron Perris 在苹果代码中发现的细节和图片显示，更新后的产品将包括新版 HomePod mini、iPad mini 8 以及 Apple TV 4K。

Details from the leaks are sparse, but the HomePod Mini 2 will carry forward a similar design to the original model that debuted in late 2020. While the current model is available in bright color options including orange, yellow, and blue, the leaked images of the HomePod Mini 2 reveal new green, pink, blue, white, and black shades that are more subdued and better suited to blending into existing decor.

此次泄露的细节并不多，但 HomePod Mini 2 将延续 2020 年底首次亮相的原版机型的设计。目前的型号提供橙色、黄色和蓝色等鲜艳的配色，而泄露的 HomePod Mini 2 图片则展示了绿色、粉色、蓝色、白色和黑色等新色调，这些颜色更加柔和，能更好地融入现有的家居装饰中。

The new iPad mini 8 will replace the seventh-generation model that launched two years ago with an upgrade from Apple’s A17 Pro chip to the recently announced A20 Pro found in the iPhone 18 Pro, Pro Max, and iPhone Duo. The leaked images only show the front of the iPad mini 8, but Apple has moved its front-facing camera to the landscape edge of the tablet, while a groove on the top edge of the display, similar to the iPhone’s, seems to indicate an added speaker.

新款 iPad mini 8 将取代两年前推出的第七代机型，芯片将从 Apple A17 Pro 升级为近期在 iPhone 18 Pro、Pro Max 和 iPhone Duo 上搭载的 A20 Pro。泄露的图片仅展示了 iPad mini 8 的正面，但苹果已将其前置摄像头移至平板电脑的横向边缘，而显示屏顶部边缘的一个凹槽（类似于 iPhone 的设计）似乎预示着增加了扬声器。

As previously reported by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the next version of the iPad could also include improved waterproofing thanks to a new vibration-based speaker, and an OLED display like the larger iPad Pro features.

正如彭博社的 Mark Gurman 此前报道的那样，下一代 iPad 可能还会通过新型振动扬声器提升防水性能，并配备与大尺寸 iPad Pro 相同的 OLED 显示屏。

The current version of the Apple TV is nearly four years old, but today’s leaks don’t give much away about what upgrades the new 4th generation version will include aside from a very similar design to its predecessor. Previous details uncovered by MacRumors’ Perris include a potential upgrade to Apple’s A17 Pro chip, while in 2024 Mark Gurman said the next Apple TV would use Apple’s in-house Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chip we now know as the N1.

现款 Apple TV 发布至今已近四年，但今天的泄露消息除了显示其设计与前代产品非常相似外，并未透露新款第四代版本将包含哪些具体升级。MacRumors 的 Perris 此前披露的细节包括可能升级至苹果的 A17 Pro 芯片，而 Mark Gurman 在 2024 年曾表示，下一代 Apple TV 将使用苹果自研的蓝牙和 Wi-Fi 芯片（即我们现在所知的 N1 芯片）。
