A 14-second clip circulating online shows what appears to be dark cherry and blue iPhone 18 Pro models displayed alongside an iPhone 17 Pro Max at what looks like a retail store. Analysts flag several red flags suggesting the footage is staged with dummy units rather than genuine pre-release hardware.
Ahead of Apple's September 9 event, where the company is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro, Pro Max and a foldable iPhone Ultra, a rumored dark cherry red color option for the Pro models has inspired a fan-made AI video ad. The creator clearly labeled the clip as AI-generated rather than presenting it as a leak.
Amazon and Best Buy have refreshed their Labor Day sales with new Apple discounts, including AirPods Pro 3 at $199 (down $50), a Midnight 13-inch M5 MacBook Air with 16GB/1TB storage at $1,449 (down $150), and the 2026 Apple Studio Display XDR at its lowest recorded price. Apple Refurb is also offering up to $500 off select models, alongside a new Dark Cherry smart display charging lineup timed to the iPhone 18 Pro launch.
