Kya hua

Bloomberg ke Mark Gurman ne Power On me bataya ki Apple ek saal se zyada se iPhone ke liye do first-party controllers bana raha hai, T6502 aur T1057 ke references macOS 26.7 beta code me mile hain.

Apple apne iPhone ke liye pehle khud ke controllers bana raha hai, Bloomberg ke Mark Gurman ne Power On newsletter me yeh bataya hai jise The Verge ne 13 September 2026 ko cover kiya.

Report ke mutabik kam se kam do models par ek saal se zyada se kaam chal raha hai, jinke codenames T6502 aur T1057 macOS 26.7 beta code me mile hain.

Code se pata chalta hai ki layout modern hoga — D-pad, dual thumbsticks, shoulder buttons aur haptic motors, saath me accelerometer aur gyroscope bhi possible hai.

Gurman ke mutabik is project ko Beats ke executives lead kar rahe hain aur Beats brand se launch expected hai taaki price kam rakha ja sake aur zyada gamers tak pahuncha ja sake.

Apple Store par pehle se hi Backbone One aur SteelSeries Nimbus+ jaise third-party controllers milte hain, lekin ye Apple ke pehle first-party controllers honge. Abhi tak launch date ya price ka koi elaan nahi hua hai.
