Bloomberg reports that despite Apple’s accidental inclusion of a demo video showcasing Visual Intelligence on AirPods, the product “remains on track for 2027.” Here are the details.
’Product challenges are still being resolved’
Earlier this week, Apple accidentally included a video showcasing Visual Intelligence running on AirPods in the macOS 26.7 Release Candidate.
The video came just days after Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reported the following on his Power On newsletter:
For years, Apple has been working on the camera AirPods under the code name B798. This device was initially scheduled for release in 2026 before being postponed until 2027, I’ve reported. But Apple has also been developing another version under the code name B790 (Apple famously creates competing versions of the same product internally).
