Apple iPhone 18 Pro Series Expected with Minor Design Changes and Price Increase
Apple's iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, expected to launch in September 2026, will feature modest design changes with a smaller front cutout due to under-display Face ID, retaining the triple-camera setup with possible variable aperture upgrades. New colors like burgundy and purple are anticipated. The devices will be powered by the A20 chipset built on TSMC's 2nm process, promising improved performance and battery life. Prices in India may start around Rs 1,35,000, with potential increases due to component costs. The standard iPhone 18 might be delayed, focusing attention on the Pro models.
