Multiple outlets report that purported prototype footage of the iPhone 18 Pro is circulating online, showing the device undergoing controlled drop testing. The videos are attributed to a tipster and/or posted by an X account, which one report says appears to be unrelated to Evan Blass and has since been suspended. While the outlets describe the clips as “leaked,” none provide confirmation from Apple.
The reported design details largely align across sources. The iPhone 18 Pro is described as having a rear appearance closer to the iPhone 17 Pro overall, including a triple-camera rear module and a LiDAR sensor, along with flat sides. However, the back panel reportedly changes from the more clearly contrasting two-tone look of the iPhone 17 Pro: the metal and glass areas are said to be more similar in color. One report also says the Apple logo appears to have a new reflective mirror finish.
The videos are described as timestamped to early 2026 in at least one report, supporting the idea that they depict a prototype. Apple has not announced iPhone 18 Pro or confirmed the authenticity of the footage.
