Apple Confirms September 9 Event to Launch iPhone 18 Pro Series and Foldable iPhone
Apple has confirmed its September 9, 2026 event at Apple Park, where it is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable iPhone, possibly named iPhone Ultra. The launch marks the first major event under new CEO John Ternus. The Pro models are anticipated to feature the new A20 Pro chip, camera upgrades including a variable aperture, a smaller Dynamic Island, and new colors. The standard iPhone 18 is expected to launch separately in 2027. Pricing may increase due to rising component costs.
