Apple is widely believed to be shaking up its iPhone launch strategy for its next generation of flagship devices.<\/p>\n

\"When
Instead of sticking to the company’s usual September time frame when it typically unveils its latest iPhone series, Apple is expected to adopt a split-launch annual cycle<\/a>. <\/p>\n

This means come September, Apple will likely reveal the new iPhone 18 Pro<\/a> and \u200ciPhone 18 Pro\u200c Max models, potentially alongside a rumored new high-end foldable iPhone.<\/p>\n

So where does the standard model come in — the successor to the regular iPhone 17<\/a>? Reports suggest that it won’t make an appearance at all in the fall.<\/p>\n

Rather, Apple will hold over the iPhone 18<\/a> until the spring of 2027, with a launch event potentially happening around March, when the iPhone 18e and iPhone Air<\/a> 2 could also make an appearance.<\/p>\n

In other words, if you typically buy a standard iPhone model, you won’t be able to get a new one in the fall, because Apple is saving its less expensive iPhone models for early next year.<\/p>\n

The standard \u200ciPhone 18\u200c model isn’t expected to feature design changes, but it could adopt Apple’s upcoming 2-nanometer A20 chip. The standard \u200ciPhone 18\u200c could also be upgraded to 12GB RAM<\/a>, bringing it into alignment with the current iPhone Pro models. There may be an improved display<\/a> for the \u200ciPhone 18\u200c, too. <\/p>\n

Otherwise though, we aren’t anticipating major changes. If you already own an \u200ciPhone 17\u200c, the next generation may turn out to be the one to skip.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Apple is widely believed to be shaking up its iPhone launch strategy for its next generation of flagship…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":781399,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[8698,611,158,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-781398","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mobile","8":"tag-iphone-18","9":"tag-mobile","10":"tag-technology","11":"tag-united-states","12":"tag-unitedstates","13":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116537627811839778","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/781398","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=781398"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/781398\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/781399"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=781398"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=781398"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=781398"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
