A Weibo post from leaker Fixed Focus Digital, said to be verified by multiple sources, details specs for Apple's 2027 iPhone 18 lineup. Both iPhone 18 and the budget iPhone 18e are said to get an identical 4430mAh battery and 6.3-inch displays, with a slightly smaller 48MP main camera on the standard model and the Ultra Wide camera staying exclusive to iPhone 18.
A Weibo post from leaker Digital Chat Station, relayed by 9to5Mac, claims Apple's upcoming iPhone 18e will use a 2nm A20 chip alongside a 48MP rear camera and a possible 24MP front camera. The leak also points to a 6.12-inch OLED screen with a 60Hz refresh rate, matching the iPhone 17e, with no details yet on pricing.
Weibo leaker Digital Chat Station claims Apple's upcoming iPhone 18e, expected next spring alongside iPhone 18 and iPhone Air 2, will carry a non-Pro version of the A20 chip and a possibly upgraded 24MP front camera. Other specs, including a 60Hz 6.12-inch OLED display and 48MP rear camera, are said to carry over unchanged from the iPhone 17e.
Leaker Digital Chat Station has posted alleged iPhone 18e specifications on Weibo, claiming the device will feature a 6.12-inch 60Hz LTPS OLED screen, a single 48MP rear camera, a 24MP front camera, and an Apple A20 chip. The iPhone 18e is expected to launch in 2027, following the pattern of the iPhone 17e released earlier this year.
Following the iPhone 18 Pro and Duo launches, reports indicate Apple will release the standard iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e in spring 2027, followed by 20th-anniversary flagships that fall. The iPhone 18 is expected to get more RAM, thermal improvements and Apple's C2 modem, while the iPhone 18e reportedly shares components with the 18 and moves to the A20 chip.
Analyst Mark Gurman reports Apple's roadmap through early 2027 includes three new iPhones—the iPhone 18, iPhone Air 2, and budget iPhone 18e—all built around an A20 chip, with the Air 2 gaining a second ultra-wide camera. The plans also cover refreshed iPads, including an OLED iPad Air and a budget model for students, new Apple Pencils, updated MacBook Air laptops, and a MacBook Neo successor.
