Overview
- Leaks published June 5–6 show Apple appears to be planning an evolutionary iPhone 18 Pro lineup led by Pro and Pro Max models rather than a dramatic exterior redesign.
- Multiple reports claim the Pro models will use a next‑generation A20 Pro chip built on TSMC’s 2nm node with stronger on‑device AI support and Pro models likely to include 12GB of RAM.
- Leaked camera details point to a 48MP primary sensor, a stacked image sensor and a mechanical or variable aperture for the Pro Max to improve low‑light image quality and dynamic range.
- Supply‑chain leaks indicate a much larger Pro Max battery around 5,100–5,200mAh and new aluminium frame colours such as Dark Cherry, Cloud Blue and Black while dimensions may match the prior generation.
- Industry reporting warns that under‑display Face ID, final battery choices, exact production timing and which innovations reach smaller iPhones remain unconfirmed because of testing, yield and supplier constraints.
