Apple Plans iPhone 18 Pro Launch with Upgrades and Potential Price Increases in India
Apple is expected to launch the iPhone 18 Pro series in September, featuring upgrades like a 2nm A20 Pro chip, a variable aperture camera, and larger batteries. Reports indicate a potential price increase in India, with the iPhone 18 Pro possibly costing up to Rs 20,000 more than its predecessor. Additionally, Apple may raise prices of existing iPhone models by around Rs 10,000 due to rising component costs. Some leaked documents from a Tata Electronics cyberattack reveal prototype details but show design variations, reflecting ongoing development.
