iPhone 18 Pro, Foldable iPhone And More: What To Expect
The US-based tech giant is most likely to launch the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, with handsets reportedly powered by the new A20 Pro chipset.
The bigger surprise could be Apple's first foldable iPhone, potentially branded iPhone Ultra. The device has been rumoured for years and could easily steal all the attention from the conventional models.
Interestingly, the standard iPhone 18 is not expected to launch tomorrow. Multiple reports suggest Apple could instead introduce it alongside the iPhone 18e in March 2028.
The tech giant may also launch the Apple Watch Ultra 4, Apple Watch Series 12 and AirPods 5. The watches could bring faster chips and health-tracking improvements, while the new AirPods are expected to include standard and ANC variants.
Pricing could also be higher this year amid rising memory costs. The iPhone 18 Pro is likely to start at ₹1,39,900, the Pro Max at ₹1,59,900, while the foldable iPhone Ultra could reportedly begin at ₹1,89,999. These prices remain unconfirmed until Apple takes the stage.
