After all, with all the phones launching in 2026 people don\u2019t have a lot of reasons to be excited for what\u2019s to come. However, a new report suggests Apple could do something that other rival brands have not been able to pull off so far this year and that is linked to the iPhone 18 Pro launch price. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The company is hoping that the ongoing memory shortage price hike doesn\u2019t ruin its plans and launch party for 2026 and here\u2019s what the reports have said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><strong>iPhone 18 Pro Launch Price Hike Coming?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The report from analyst <em>Jeff Pu<\/em>, quoted by <em>MacRumors<\/em> suggests Apple is looking to absorb any possible price hike because of the components, and keep the iPhone 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max launch price at the same range.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The new update hints that the iPhone 18 Pro could once again start at $1,099 while the iPhone 18 Pro Max costs $1,199 for the base variant in the US. The report is mostly basing its estimates on possible deals that Apple can make with Samsung and other suppliers, even though the new models are expected to come with notable upgrades.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">But will we see the new iPhone 18 Pro series launch at the same price in India as well? It will be hard to say that right now but going by Apple\u2019s focus on being aggressive and focused in the country, the brand might try its best to launch the iPhone 18 Pro around the existing price. Having said that, the ongoing currency levels could determine how that pans out at launch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The upcoming iPhone 18 Pro Max model could get different battery packs based on regions later this year. The leak via Digital Chat Station suggests the iPhone 18 Pro Max in China will launch with a 5,000mAh battery which will make it marginally bigger than the regular iPhone 17 Pro Max model. But the tipster also claims that the global version of the 18 Pro Max could feature an even bigger 5,100 or 5,200mAh unit. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-18814a1d8226d353 artnws newsletter\">\n<p>Handpicked stories, in your inbox<\/p>\n<p>A newsletter with the best of our journalism<\/p>\n<p><input type=\"text\" placeholder=\"Enter Your Email\" class=\"jsx-18814a1d8226d353 artnwinpt\" value=\"\"\/><button class=\"jsx-18814a1d8226d353 subscrbe newsletter\">submit<\/button><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-c88456722e94b84d jsx-2093781707 atbtlink Location\"><span>Location :<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>California, USA<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-c88456722e94b84d jsx-2093781707 atbtlink fp\"><span>First Published:<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rs\">\n<p>February 12, 2026, 15:43 IST<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-c88456722e94b84d jsx-2093781707 brdcrmb\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/\">News<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/tech\/\">tech<\/a>  <span class=\"brdout\"> iPhone 18 Pro Launch Price Not Likely To Increase: Should Indian Buyers Get Excited?<\/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.
