Apple's iPhone 18e Expected to Feature RAM Upgrade to Support AI Functions

Apple's iPhone 18e Expected to Feature RAM Upgrade to Support AI FunctionsPreviousNext

Rumors suggest Apple's upcoming iPhone 18e will increase RAM from 8GB to 9GB to enhance Apple Intelligence features like Expressive Siri and AI dictation. Analysts Jeff Pu and Ming-Chi Kuo independently predict this upgrade, noting the unusual 9GB figure results from a new memory chip configuration. Other iPhone 18 models may also see RAM increases, while Pro versions are expected to maintain 12GB. Hardware specifications like camera sensors are likely to remain unchanged.
