Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max go on sale after pre-orders begin this Saturday, with reported sales set for September 18. Multiple outlets also note that the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max include a new 2nm A20 Pro chipset and camera changes such as a variable aperture main rear camera, alongside claims of improved battery life—particularly for the Pro Max.
Coverage focuses on deals and timing rather than new hardware surprises. One outlet rounds up available discounts during the initial preorder-to-launch period in the US and UK, while another lists prices and frames them for comparison with flagship Android options. Separate reporting also highlights that Apple’s pre-order approach includes no typical promotional extras, alongside mentions of pricing increases for earlier iPhone models. In addition to iPhone 18 coverage, the deal roundups point to discounts for Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold8 and other Samsung flagships, and they reference the iPhone Duo model as arriving later (October), as a potential alternative for shoppers considering newer devices beyond the Pro lineup.
