The leak, the credit for which goes to a few Foxconn insiders mentions about the expected stuff such as the 2018 MacBook Pro, iPhone 8, or iPhone 7, and Siri speaker along with the unexpected ones such as Apple Smart Glasses and so on. The source that has come to be known as Foxconn insider has taken to Reddit to reveal their findings.
Here is all that got leaked.
iPhone 8: No doubt one of the most anticipated iPhone devices in recent times, the anniversary edition is touted to have features such as water and dust resistance and wireless charging. The device is believed to have a composite glass back instead of the usual aluminum build to allow for wireless charging.
As for looks, the tipsters mentioned the device to have an all glass front with just a minor cut-out at the top to allow for the placement of the front camera. The device is also tipped to come with Facial Recognition and Retina Scanner tech as authentication tools.

Siri Speaker: Here is another product that Apple is rumored to be readying for launch during the WWDC event though Foxconn insider is of the view that the device still shouldn’t be expected to reach markets before the end of the year.

The tipsters also stated the said speaker has the looks of a Mac Pro but having smaller dimensions. They also stated they have tested three devices with one sporting neither a camera nor a screen. However, it is not known what the device will eventually look like in reality.
MacBook: It has been some time Apple had upgraded its MacBook range and the same is heavily rumored this year. In fact, Apple is expected to announce an upgraded MacBook range during the WWDC, which also includes the MacBook Air. Foxconn insider too reiterated the above but stated the MacBook Air could be on its way out.
While that obvious contradicts earlier rumors that claimed the MacBook Air might be getting a life extension of sorts, Foxconn insider is claiming otherwise. The group, however, stated they have tested upgraded MacBook devices. While exact specs aren’t available, they said the devices have a lot more glass area and sported a dark black color theme. The while Apple light is set to make a comeback.
Foxconn insider didn’t have much else to reveal except that a third sized variant of the iPad could be in the works.
