Probably none of them. Apple thinks the future is wireless headphones, and they always proudly dash to wherever they think the future is without regard for the reluctance of the rest of the world to go there nearly as fast.
Sometimes this results in their releasing a product that flops badly, as with the Mac G4 cube (a five years premature venture into the “tiny desktop” category) or the cylindrical Mac Pro (betting that everyone would want dual GPUs instead of a single really beefy GPU).

“Oh, darn us, how on Earth did we manage to generate more press by allowing yet another leak!”
XS - Excess. as in excessively large, excessively expensive, excessively profitable.
Sorry Apple, I know you want us all to say “ten-ess,” but we are not so square as to think that Roman numerals are still a thing.
A future where even your new headphones are “pre owned”
