iPhone 18: Information about Apple's new flagship

Apple's next flagship smartphone — the iPhone 18 is expected to be released in 2026, according to pepelac.news. This model may introduce a number of new technologies.

The iPhone 18 Pro is expected to feature a camera with a variable aperture. This function will allow users to manually control the amount of light, which will be useful in lighting conditions or for depth control.

Additionally, Apple may introduce its new C2 modem, which will ensure better performance in 5G networks, including mmWave support. This will be a continuation of the strategy to move away from Qualcomm chips.

The "heart" of the iPhone 18 Pro will be the A20 Pro chip, which will be manufactured based on TSMC's third-generation 3-nm technology. This chip improves the interaction between the processor, memory, and neural engine through CoWoS technology.

Furthermore, Samsung may supply 48 MP ultra-wide camera sensors for the iPhone 18 Pro. This will be Apple's first collaboration with a sensor manufacturer other than Sony.

Finally, Apple may introduce under-display Face ID technology. While this may not completely replace Dynamic Island, its size may be reduced. There is also a possibility of transitioning to a single hole for just the front camera.
