"According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple will split the iPhone 18 series in two groups - the Pros will come in the fall of 2026, while the vanilla will arrive in the spring of 2027. This way, Apple will reduce its dependence on making its fall event a huge spectacle. So next year, Apple will likely announce the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, "
"the long-awaited iPhone Fold, and possibly new smartwatches and Macs, in the fall. Then, in the spring of 2027, Apple will announce the base model iPhone 18, a possible successor to the iPhone 16e (iPhone 18e), and a potential successor to the iPhone Air. This two-pronged approach is inherently more flexible and will ease Apple's operational strain."
Apple will split the iPhone 18 lineup into two release groups: Pro models in fall 2026 and base models in spring 2027. The fall 2026 lineup will likely include the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, the foldable iPhone, and possibly new smartwatches and Macs. The spring 2027 launch will include the iPhone 18 base model, a possible iPhone 18e successor to the iPhone 16e, and a potential successor to the iPhone Air. The staggered approach aims to reduce operational strain and lessen dependence on a single large fall event. The iPhone Air will serve as a low-volume hardware test platform for the foldable design and may omit a second camera lens because ultrawide units are not highly sought after.
