But the big launch seems to have been reserved for 2026 when the new iPhone 18 series is announced along with the 18 Pro models.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">We have been talking about Apple\u2019s lack of innovation with cameras (not selfies), and how Chinese brands like Vivo and Oppo among others have taken over the mantle. Apple could be back in that conversation with some of the biggest camera upgrades once again tipped to arrive with the iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max (or 18 Ultra?) models.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><strong>Big Changes Coming<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">We have previously heard rumours about Apple adopting a variable aperture camera system with the iPhone 18 Pro series next year and once again it has been mentioned in a new report. The details via <em>ETNews<\/em> in South Korea suggest Apple\u2019s new premium models will get upgraded cameras, not just in the megapixels but also the way they work. Having variable aperture will allow the iPhone 18 Pro cameras to operate in versatile lighting, conditions and range.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">This feature has been adopted by Xiaomi and even Vivo with its recent flagship devices and Apple could finally enter this arena which will surely make a big difference to the quality of the images. This will be Apple\u2019s first iPhone model to get the variable aperture system, and for that, the report claims it will rely on suppliers like LG Innotech and Foxconn to make the cameras with this capability.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Having this camera feature means the iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max prices next year will shoot up further. But the company also plans to announce its first foldable iPhone along with the iPhone Air 2 version in 2026, so the rumour mills are only going to get busier in the next few months.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Apple was one of the last to offer high-refresh rate displays on the iPhones, but people still value its addition. Bringing variable aperture to the cameras will make the competition get serious and have more brands adopt the feature for their products. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"S Aadeetya\" title=\"S Aadeetya\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2023\/11\/aadeetya-3-2023-11-9de48efa65a9ed8ed13a8932cadb6d5a.jpg?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/s-aadeetya-21044.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">S Aadeetya<\/a><\/p>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<!-- --> <span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-c9f81425ec968c48 jsx-3253177339 atbtlink fp\"><span>First Published:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rs\">\n<p>October 17, 2025, 07:40 IST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-c9f81425ec968c48 jsx-3253177339 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/tech\/\">tech<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> iPhone 18 Pro Could Get Apple\u2019s Biggest Camera Upgrade Next Year: What We Know<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"coral-wrap\" class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f \">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coral-cont\">\n<div class=\"jsx-ba4d8f086a12294f coltoptxt\">Disclaimer: Comments reflect users\u2019 views, not News18\u2019s.
