Users waiting for the iPhone 18 Pro may be disappointed


(Dan Tri) - In a post on social network Weibo, Ice Universe account revealed new information about the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max duo.
Accordingly, iPhone 18 Pro Max will be equipped with a camera system capable of changing aperture. Worth mentioning, this feature only appears exclusively on the Pro Max version, while the Pro model does not support it.

This feature allows users to adjust the amount of light entering the sensor depending on the shooting environment. Specifically, when shooting in low light conditions, the aperture will automatically widen to capture more light, making the image brighter and more detailed.
The fact that Apple only equips this feature on the Pro Max product line will contribute to the decentralization of devices as well as users. Previously, Apple did the same thing when equipping a 5x telephoto camera on the iPhone 15 Pro Max, while the iPhone 15 Pro version only supported a 3x telephoto camera.
Apple is said to be developing 4 color versions on iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. These versions include light blue (Light Blue - Pantone 2121), dark cherry red (Dark Cherry - Pantone 6076), silver (Silver - Pantone 427C) and dark gray (Dark Gray - Pantone 426C).
This is not the first time information has appeared about Apple developing a red iPhone 18 Pro Max. Accordingly, this version is described as a deep wine red, not a bright fruit juice red.
Most likely, the dark cherry red iPhone 18 Pro Max will not be as bright and dazzling as the cosmic orange version on the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Instead, it will be deeper and softer. Based on the Pantone code, this color also has a hint of purple.

Some leaked images show that the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max duo will have a smaller Dynamic Island part. Specifically, the Dynamic Island area will be reduced by up to 35% compared to its predecessor.
Recently leaked images have revealed detailed information about the battery capacity on the iPhone 18 Pro Max. Accordingly, the battery on the iPhone 18 Pro Max will have a capacity of 5,391mAh, 12% larger than the iPhone 17 Pro Max.
Not stopping there, the version reserved for the US market (only supports eSIM) will likely have a larger capacity battery. Some rumors suggest that the battery capacity on the iPhone 18 Pro Max in the US will be 5,567mAh.
With a larger capacity battery, iPhone 18 Pro Max is expected to provide longer usage time. However, this also comes with limitations as the weight of the device can be heavier. Currently, it is unclear whether Apple will apply silicon-carbon battery technology to new product lines or not.
