Apple has seen a fresh batch of product identifiers appear within its backend systems, with 37 new hardware identifiers covering iPhones, Macs, and other devices. Despite the timing, these codes are unlikely to reveal what the company plans to announce at its forthcoming event.
The identifiers surfaced ahead of Apple’s “Surprise and Shine” event, scheduled for Wednesday, where the company is expected to unveil a range of new products. However, the newly discovered codes offer little insight into either the specific devices involved or when they might reach the market.
What Product Identifiers Actually Reveal
Product identifiers tell observers very little about a device. They typically leave analysts guessing until the codes are matched to official documentation for a product that has already been released. In this case, the list found in Apple’s backend shows 37 new entries spanning iPhones, Macs, and additional hardware categories, but no further detail accompanies them.
The presence of these device identifiers does not indicate a product’s features or its release timing. This is a common characteristic of such codes, which appear in Apple’s internal systems well before any formal confirmation or launch.
Rumoured Products and One Mystery Entry
The identifiers were spotted appearing in Apple’s backend and shared publicly by code sleuth Aaron Perris. Most of the 37 entries are believed to correspond to products that have already been the subject of earlier rumours. At least one identifier, however, remains unexplained and does not match any previously reported device.
While the appearance of these codes coincides with the run-up to Apple’s event, they should not be read as confirmation of any specific announcement. The backend listing reflects internal preparation rather than a public roadmap, and the individual identifiers will only gain clarity once they are tied to shipping products through official Apple documentation.
For now, the list stands at 37 new hardware identifiers, encompassing iPhones, Macs, and other product types, with a single entry yet to be accounted for.
