"We've already heard a few times that Apple plans to delay the vanilla iPhone 18 until next spring, not releasing it alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max this fall. This rather unusual delay, representing an important shift in Apple's release strategy, is now confirmed by yet another report from Asia. The iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max will launch on time in the fall, and the iPhone Fold will be announced alongside them."
"The iPhone 18, according to this new report, is only scheduled to come out at some point in the first half of next year. The move "is intended to optimize resources and maximize revenue and profits from premium models amid surging prices for memory chips", multiple sources have told Nikkei Asia. The next iPhone Air may arrive alongside the iPhone 18 in 2027."
Apple will delay the standard iPhone 18 until the first half of next year while launching the iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max on schedule this fall. The company will also announce its first foldable, the iPhone Fold, alongside the Pro models in the fall. The delay of the vanilla iPhone 18 aims to optimize resources and maximize revenue and profits from premium models amid rising memory chip prices. The staggered launch helps minimize production hiccups during mass production of the foldable and allows better management of supply chain resources. The iPhone Air might arrive with the iPhone 18 in 2027.
