iPhone 18 Pro/Max: 10 Essential Answers You Need Before Upgrading

iPhone 18 Pro/Max: 10 Essential Answers You Need Before Upgrading

Tom’s Guide’s Mark Spoonauer breaks down the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max in 10 key questions. The Pro Max is heavier (249 g / 8.78 oz) than the Pro (211 g) largely due to a bigger vapor‑chamber cooling system, blades for a wider variable aperture, and a larger internal battery. The Max also carries a larger battery—about 5,567 mAh on the eSIM version versus 5,088 mAh on the 17 Pro Max—aiming for better endurance, while Apple keeps the phones’ overall external dimensions similar to last year so many 17 Pro accessories still fit. The piece casts the upgrade in terms of an A20 Pro performance leap, battery life, and whether you should opt for the Pro or Pro Max, or wait for rumors of an iPhone Duo. It also notes case compatibility across generations (17 Pro cases fit 18 Pro/Max) and compiles reader questions from Tom’s Guide YouTube, TikTok, and an Apple leadership interview.

iPhone 18 Pro Max tipped to be Apple’s heaviest in years due to bigger battery

Rumors suggest the iPhone 18 Pro Max will be roughly 2mm thicker and around 240g, driven by a larger 5,500mAh battery (with regional variations in capacity). If true, this would make it Apple’s heaviest iPhone in years, with an aluminum chassis and weight increases attributed to internal changes rather than a switch to heavier materials.

Adulthood weight gain tied to higher cancer risk across multiple cancers, study shows

Adulthood weight gain tied to higher cancer risk across multiple cancers, study shows

A Swedish study of more than 600,000 people found that gaining weight in adulthood and starting adulthood with a higher weight increases overall cancer risk, with no safe age to gain weight. Early obesity (before 30) dramatically raises risks: men see a fivefold rise in liver cancer and doubles in pancreatic and kidney cancers, while women see about 4.5× higher endometrial cancer risk. Weight gain later in life also raises risk, with women showing strong links to endometrial, postmenopausal breast, and meningioma, and men to esophageal and liver cancers. Those who gained the most weight (~32 kg) faced about 7% higher cancer risk than those who gained little (~8 kg). Even modest weight gain elevates risk, underscoring the importance of maintaining a stable, healthy weight throughout adulthood, the authors say.

Samsung's Galaxy Z TriFold 2 promises a slimmer hinge to shed bulk

Samsung's Galaxy Z TriFold 2 promises a slimmer hinge to shed bulk

Samsung is reportedly developing a new hinge system for the Galaxy Z TriFold 2 to reduce its bulk and weight, aiming for a sleeker, lighter device despite a premium $2,900 price. The second-gen model is expected mid-2027 and may still be thicker than the Z Fold 7 (about 12.9mm closed) with a heavier ~309g weight, and it could be wider than the original TriFold. Previous production was very limited (100k–200k units), raising questions about mainstream appeal and durability, as well as the need for software refinements alongside the hardware. The hinge tech could eventually trickle to Samsung’s other foldables.

Audi RS5 Hybrid: 630 HP Power, But Heavier Than an F-150

Audi RS5 Hybrid: 630 HP Power, But Heavier Than an F-150

Audi debuts the RS5 as a replacement for the RS4/RS5 with a plug‑in hybrid setup: a 2.9‑liter twin‑turbo V6 plus an integrated electric motor for 630 hp and 608 lb‑ft, a 0–62 mph time of 3.6 seconds, and up to 50 miles of electric range from a 22 kWh battery. But the RS5 sedan (2,355 kg) and Avant (2,370 kg) are exceptionally heavy—even heavier than a V8 Ford F-150 SuperCab—due to the battery and AWD hardware. It adds a new center differential, torque‑vectoring rear axle, RS Torque Rear drift mode, and a Boost function. Full driving impressions will come later this year.
