According to analyst Jeff Pu, the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and foldable iPhone will all be equipped with the next-generation A20 Pro processor.
This chip will be manufactured using TSMC's new 2nm N2 process, offering 15% faster performance and 30% more energy efficiency compared to the A19 chip.

Other specifications of the iPhone Pro and iPhone Fold are also similar, including 12GB of RAM, a 48MP main camera, and Apple's own C2 modem.
Numerous leaks suggest that Apple will continue to increase the price of the iPhone 18 compared to the iPhone 17. This is due to a shortage of RAM and NAND memory in the supply chain.
Apple is reportedly working to negotiate with partners to maintain the stability of its supply chain. However, the surge in memory costs will erode the company's profits. Apple will have to pass some of these increased costs on to customers.
According to PhoneArena , the base-capacity iPhone 18 models will likely be priced similarly to last year, while higher-capacity versions will be more expensive. The price increase will be adjusted upwards with each storage capacity level.
In fact, Apple is not the only victim of this situation. The problem of component shortages has begun to spread and negatively affect a wide range of smartphone manufacturers worldwide.
The memory shortage stems from the soaring demand from AI companies. Many experts predict that the cost of this component will continue to rise for the next two years due to insufficient supply to meet demand.

In a recent post on the social media platform Weibo, the account Digital Chat Station revealed that the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max will have screen sizes of 6.3 inches and 6.9 inches respectively, similar to the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max generations.
The most notable upgrade comes from the Face ID facial recognition sensor system, which will be moved to the bottom of the screen. This change will help reduce the size of the punch-hole cutout, thereby providing more display space.
Additionally, the front camera will likely be moved to the left side. However, it is currently unclear whether the Dynamic Island feature will be retained on these two devices.
Most likely, the under-display Face ID system will only appear on the iPhone Pro models. The two standard iPhone 18 models and the iPhone Air 2 will retain the design of their predecessors. This is how Apple typically categorizes its product lines.
