We\u2019re about six months away from Apple\u2019s grand unveiling of its next iPhone and, with the rumour mill churning, it feels like we know almost everything there is to know about the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.<\/p>\n

This September is expected to be the first time Apple splits its iPhone launches. With the first folding iPhone potentially arriving this autumn, Apple is reportedly punting the launch of the regular iPhone 18 to spring 2027. The tech giant\u2019s usual September spectacle could then focus entirely on its more premium iPhones, including the iPhone Fold.<\/p>\n

So what can we expect to see? Right now, the rumours suggest that the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max \u2013 the two models expected to launch this September \u2013 will be fairly iterative upgrades, with better cameras and a smaller Dynamic Island.

In late 2025, the ever-reliable Apple insider Mark Gurman claimed that the company will be moving away from its annual autumnal launch extravaganza. Instead, Gurman claimed it will be spreading its iPhone launches throughout the year.<\/p>\n

According to Gurman, the reason for the shift is that Apple\u2019s decision to cram everything into September has become burdensome. It gives the company fewer opportunities to spread out revenue across the year, while also straining its marketing and engineering teams and overloading suppliers.<\/p>\n

So Apple\u2019s predicted to shake up its launch window entirely. Gurman says we won\u2019t be seeing the regular iPhone 18 unveiled in September this year. Instead, Apple will only launch the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, as well as its first foldable phone.<\/p>\n

The tech giant is then predicted to launch the regular iPhone 18 in the spring of…<\/p>\n
