👂 According to MacRumors for the first time in over a decade, Apple is expected to split iPhone launches instead of unveiling the full lineup every September.
🆕 release strategy
🍂 Fall 2026: iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and Apple’s first foldable iPhone
🌱 Spring 2027: Standard iPhone 18, iPhone 18e, and iPhone Air 2
Why Apple is doing this
• Expanding lineup (up to 8 iPhone models on sale by end of 2026)
• Less internal competition between models
• Better supply-chain management
• More balanced revenue across the year
🤔 This means the iPhone 17, launched in 2025, could remain Apple’s latest standard model for over 18 months — something Apple has never done before.
