The firm secured a September 12, 2026 launch for the iPhone 18 Pro lineup.
Every iPhone cycle since 2018 has debuted early September, with no signs this one breaks the streak.
Testing logs confirm the iPhone 18 Pro Max packs a 120mm main camera sensor featuring a variable aperture.
The feature helps the phone pull in more light at night, experts note.
Images from the still-secret device show a body thicker in size and mass compared to last year’s model.
The larger sensor aligns with industry trends toward better low‑light performance, a development praised by photographers.
Rumors suggest the phone may ship with an updated chipset, expected to enhance performance.
