Leaked Details Indicate iPhone 18 to Feature Larger Battery and Possible Price Increase

Analysed 12 Nov 2026·4 sources analysed·India·Technology
Leaked Details Indicate iPhone 18 to Feature Larger Battery and Possible Price IncreasePreviousNext

Leaks suggest the standard iPhone 18, expected between February and April 2027, will feature a larger 4,430mAh battery, surpassing both the iPhone 17's 3,692mAh and the iPhone 18 Pro models. This increase may result from internal redesigns like removing the physical SIM tray. The phone is also rumored to include an A20 chipset, 120Hz display, and upgraded memory, with a potential price rise in India to around Rs 99,900. Apple has not officially confirmed these details or launch dates.
