The New iPhone 18 Pro Range Is Here – but Who Is It For?
- Apple launched the iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max with a new variable aperture camera system, starting at $1,199 and $1,299 respectively.
- Driving these improvements is the new A20 Pro chip, which enhances sustained performance through a revamped vapor chamber that covers three times more surface area than previous models.
- The main 48-megapixel camera includes a variable aperture ranging from f/1.48 to f/4.0, plus manual pro controls for shutter speed, white balance, and exposure.
- Apple introduced Reference Image, which embeds encrypted sensor data to verify photo authenticity, alongside a 25% smaller Dynamic Island that displays three Live Activities simultaneously.
- Battery life reaches 45 hours of video playback on the 18 Pro Max, positioning these as Apple's most powerful non-folding phones. Meanwhile, the foldable iPhone Duo remains the anticipated release for next month.
