IPHONE 18 WILL HAVE TWO UPGRADES INSPIRED BY ‘PRO' MODELS, PER LEAK

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Apple's upcoming iPhone 18 will reportedly inherit two improvements from the iPhone 18 Pro: longer battery life and a more efficient processor. The new A20 chip is expected to use TSMC's 2-nanometer manufacturing process, potentially delivering significant performance and efficiency gains over previous generations. The standard model is expected in early 2027, but the smaller Dynamic Island will reportedly remain exclusive to Pro models, and a price increase is possible.
