Apple unveiled the A20 Pro, its first 2-nanometer chip built for iPhones, alongside a new in-house C2 modem, at an event led by CEO John Ternus. The chip will power the new foldable iPhone Duo as well as the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, featuring a 6-core CPU, 7-core GPU, dual neural engines, and a redesigned cooling system with a larger vapor chamber.
Apple introduced the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, featuring a 48MP Fusion Main camera with variable aperture, a smaller Dynamic Island, and the new A20 Pro chip paired with a next-generation vapor chamber for sustained performance. The Pro Max also gets Apple's largest-ever battery life increase, while both models run iOS 27 with Apple Intelligence and a revamped Siri. The phones come in four finishes, including a new burgundy option, with pre-orders starting September 12 and sales beginning September 18.
Apple has unveiled a Reference Image feature on the iPhone 18 Pro that creates a cryptographic signature for photos at the moment of capture, allowing later verification of whether an image has been altered by AI. Using Apple Private Cloud Compute, the system lets users compare an edited photo against its original 'digital negative' and can share these signed authentication records with others. The feature will not roll out in the European Union or China, while Apple's own AI-generated images will instead carry SynthID watermarks.
Apple unveiled the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max at its fall event, keeping last year's design but adding a 48-megapixel variable-aperture camera, manual pro camera controls, and new photographic styles with texture and grain options. The phones run on Apple's A20 Pro chip with a redesigned vapor chamber, offer longer battery life, and introduce a contextual Siri AI launching in English with more languages arriving in October.
Apple revealed that the iPhone 18 Pro achieves three times the cooling performance of its predecessor, driven by a redesigned chip placement positioned nearer to a new vapor chamber. Additional internal changes are said to further boost heat dissipation, aiding sustained performance during intensive tasks.
Apple's new CEO John Ternus introduced the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max alongside a foldable iPhone at the company's launch event. The Pro Max reportedly offers up to 45 hours of video playback, the longest of any iPhone, powered by a new 2nm A20 Pro chip with improved CPU and GPU performance. The devices also add Apple's N1 and C2 chips for faster wireless connectivity and a redesigned vapor chamber for cooling.
Apple introduced the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, which look nearly identical to last year's models aside from a smaller Dynamic Island cutout and a new burgundy color option. The devices gain an A20 Pro chip, manual aperture control on the main camera down to f/1.8, improved vapor chamber cooling, and what Apple calls the longest battery life of any iPhone. A new Reference Image feature also lets users verify whether photos have been edited.
Apple introduced the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, keeping the design language of last year's models but adding a second Neural Engine, a new A20 Pro chip built on a 2nm process, and a variable aperture 48MP main camera. The phones also gain a smaller Dynamic Island supporting three simultaneous Live Activities, four new color options, and improved battery life through a redesigned vapor chamber cooling system.
Apple introduced the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max at its September event, starting at $1,199 and $1,299 respectively for 256GB models. The devices feature a new A20 Pro chip described as 20% faster than its predecessor, a 48-megapixel main camera with a mechanically variable aperture, and improved battery life with the Pro Max reaching 45 hours of video playback. Preorders open Saturday, with sales starting September 18.

The phones feature a new A20 Pro chip, a variable-aperture 48-megapixel main camera using six ultra-thin blades, updated Pro camera controls, and longer battery life with the Pro Max rated for 45 hours of video playback.
Apple released a document detailing how its newly announced Audio Intelligence features—Siri Recap, Live Rewind, Sound Recognition, and Music Recognition—process audio without storing or exposing raw recordings. The company says these features rely on a hardware-isolated 'Secure Exclave' in the Apple Watch's S11 chip, which processes sound locally and never creates an accessible audio file. Any data transferred to iPhone is encrypted between Secure Exclaves, and users must manually activate features like Live Rewind and choose what text to retain.
Apple introduced the Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 at its 'Surprise and shine' event, adding upgraded health sensors, audio transcription and summary features, and a new ceramic case option for the Series 12. Both models retain the same starting prices as their predecessors, with the Series 12 at $399 and the Ultra 4 at $799.
