Apple is planning to split the launch of its iPhone 18 range, expected in 2026, by about half a year, The Information reported, citing supply chain sources.
The company is planning to release the Pro versions of the iPhone 18 in fall 2026, and push the release of the less expensive iPhone 18, along with a new version of the iPhone 16e, to spring 2027, the report said. A new foldable iPhone may also be released in fall 2026, the report said.
Apple is reportedly planning to launch a slimmer version of the smartphone, rumoured to be named “iPhone 17 Air” this year, per Bloomberg. The company is expected to launch a successor to that model in 2026 as well, The Information reported.
The Information noted that Apple would also test making the cheaper iPhone 18 models in India to reduce its reliance on China for manufacturing, as Trump’s tariffs impact its margins.
