The new year 2026 has begun and in its first month we expect from Applu a relatively rich supply of news. Of course, there could be updates not only to operating systems but especially computers.
iOS 26.3
The new tenth update for our iPhones will not bring any major changes or news, although it depends on how you look at it. According to releases from previous years (iOS 18.3 was released on January 27, iOS 17.3 was released on January 22nd) it can be assumed that Apple will release a sharp update to the general public sometime at the end of the month.
It will primarily bring a new interoperability system for the transition between iPhonewith Android and changes with regard to the EU, namely notification forwarding, pairing accessories using proximity sensors and other features for third-party accessories such as smartwatches and headphones. This will be especially appreciated by those who do not use Apple Watch, which is certainly good news for them.

- macOS 26.3

- iPadOS 26.3
- watchOS 26.3

These updates focus primarily on bug fixes and general performance improvements. They do not bring any significant new features to users.

It would be the first time that Mac It got a mobile-class chip, but that could bring down its price and make the product interesting for a certain group of customers. It should cost "well under $1,000" and have a 12,9-inch screen.
