Apple\u2019s iPhone 18 event is only a couple of months away. Thanks to leaks, we already have a fair idea of what to expect. From redesigned hardware to upgraded cameras to even bigger batteries, many of the headline features seem all but confirmed.<\/p>\n

Yet, important questions surrounding the new iPhones remain unanswered. And they are the ones that could determine whether the iPhone 18 Pro is worth upgrading to.<\/p>\n

Everything we don\u2019t know before the September iPhone launch event<\/h2>\n

Leaks rarely tell the whole story. They can reveal the possible hardware changes months in advance, but they can\u2019t reliably predict the software changes that ultimately determine the final improvements.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the same story with Apple\u2019s upcoming iPhone 18 Pro lineup. Based on leaks, we know the base iPhone 18 won\u2019t launch this September. We also know that the iPhone 18 Pro will look largely similar to its predecessor, with a potentially bigger camera bump. It may also use a variable-aperture lens on the main camera.<\/p>\n

But those leaks still leave plenty of room for uncertainty. Some of the most important details \u2014 like pricing, battery life, Apple Intelligence and the real-world impact of the rumored hardware upgrades \u2014 won\u2019t become clear until Apple takes the stage.<\/p>\n

Until then, these are the biggest unanswered questions ahead of the iPhone 18 event.<\/p>\n

  3. Will Apple Intelligence finally feel complete?<\/li>\n
  4. Will the foldable iPhone be worth the wait (and price)?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    1. How much will the iPhone 18 Pro and foldable iPhone cost?<\/h3>\n

    Price is arguably the biggest unknown and the most important question of all. How much will the iPhone 18 Pro and foldable iPhone cost?<\/p>\n

    A price rise is inevitable given the soaring cost of DRAM and NAND memory. Apple already increased Mac and iPad prices…<\/p>\n
