Recent reports regarding the “iPhone 18” model focus on negative aspects. It is reported that Apple will use a more powerful processor and newer display technology in its 18 Pro models. Furthermore, it is noted that despite the global RAM crisis, Apple will not impose limitations on memory.
Redaksiya reports that the iPhone 18 model will be introduced with 12GB RAM. The source emphasizes that Apple will implement 12GB RAM in the base iPhone model for the first time. The reported 50% RAM increase will bring the entry-level iPhone 18 to the same level as the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.
It is noted that this step is related to the high memory requirements of Apple Intelligence features, which will come with iOS 27 from the Cupertino company. Apple is expected to introduce iOS 27 at WWDC on June 8, 2026. The iPhone 18 series is also expected to come with the Apple A20 processor, developed based on TSMC's latest 2nm process, and this transition is estimated to provide a 15% increase in processing performance without losing energy efficiency.
In response to the question, “When will the iPhone 18 be introduced?” recent reports indicate that Apple will prioritize Pro models in this year's presentation. The iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max (perhaps a foldable iPhone Ultra) will be introduced in September. The standard iPhone 18, iPhone 18e, and iPhone Air 2 will be released to the market in the spring of 2027.
