Overview
- Leaker Fixed Focus Digital claims the iPhone 18 lineup will see minimal exterior changes, attributing the decision to iPhone 17 sales, a rationale outlets treat cautiously given the leaker’s mixed track record.
- Multiple reports say Apple is prioritizing internal upgrades with new A20 and A20 Pro processors expected on TSMC’s 2 nm process for efficiency and performance gains.
- Rumors also point to an updated C2 modem and display shifts such as a smaller Dynamic Island, with some chatter about under‑display Face ID on Pro models.
- Analyst and supply‑chain reporting continues to suggest a staggered launch with iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max—possibly alongside a foldable—in September 2026, followed by standard models in spring 2027.
- Camera changes under discussion include a variable‑aperture main sensor and a 24 MP front camera, though none of these features are confirmed by Apple.
