Apple Reboots iPhone 18 Launch: Pro Models Fall 2026, Standard in Spring 2027

TL;DR Summary
MacRumors reports Apple will split the iPhone 18 rollout: the Pro models (and a foldable iPhone Ultra) debut at a September 2026 event with higher prices driven by memory and component costs, while the standard iPhone 18, iPhone 18e, and iPhone Air 2 are released in spring 2027; the lineup is expected to use a 2nm A20 chip with possible costs such as a $100–$300 price increase, and it remains unclear whether Apple will revert to a single launch window after 2027.
