Apple senior vice president of hardware engineering Johnโ€ฏTernus sat down with Bloombergโ€™s chief Apple correspondent Markโ€ฏGurman for the first public interview on Gurmanโ€™s upcoming โ€œPowerโ€ฏOnโ€ podcast, a conversation that comes as the company searches for its next growth driver after the iPhoneโ€ฏ15 launch.

The interview follows Appleโ€™s September iPhone event, where every major detail was already known thanks to Gurmanโ€™s extensive network of sources. Appleโ€™s flagship phone line has powered the company for more than a decade, but sales are flattening and rivals are closing the gap. Analysts say Apple needs a breakthrough product to keep its momentum, whether that is a mixedโ€‘reality headset, a healthโ€‘focused Appleโ€ฏWatch, or a new Mac with its own silicon. Ternus, who oversees all of Appleโ€™s hardware, is now under pressure to deliver that next big thing.

Gurmanโ€™s reputation for accurate leaks has made him the goโ€‘to journalist for Apple insiders. In the podcast, he will press Ternus on the status of Appleโ€™s longโ€‘rumored AR/VR headset, the progress of the health sensors being added to the Watch, and the timeline for a nextโ€‘generation Mac. Industry experts expect the discussion to reveal whether Appleโ€™s supply chain can support a new device at scale, and whether the company is ready to launch a product that could redefine its ecosystem. The interview is also notable because Ternus rarely speaks to the press, making any hints he gives especially valuable.

Appleโ€™s next major public event is its Worldwide Developers Conference in early June, where the company typically unveils new software and occasionally hardware. If Ternus signals that a headset or a new Mac is on the way, investors will likely adjust their expectations for the coming fiscal year. The โ€œPowerโ€ฏOnโ€ interview could set the tone for what Apple hopes to showcase at WWDC, and whether the company can sustain its market dominance beyond the iPhone.
