The latest iPhone models

iPhone Duo is the first foldable iPhone, featuring a breakthrough design that’s beautiful, versatile, and durable. iPhone Duo opens to a large 7.6-inch inner display for viewing content, gaming, and multitasking, and closes to a compact, pocketable 5.4-inch outer display. Built to last with an innovative hardware design and precision hinge, iPhone Duo is powered by A20 Pro to deliver pro performance and impressive all-day battery life, and offers an advanced camera system, with the folding design unlocking fun new ways to use the camera that aren’t possible on any other iPhone. iOS 27 is also reimagined for the versatile ways users can interact with iPhone Duo. iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max offer the new 48MP Fusion Main camera with variable aperture, the most advanced camera Apple has ever made, and new Pro controls let users customize their experience. Powered by A20 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max deliver huge leaps in battery life and performance. iPhone Duo and iPhone 18 Pro models feature Apple Intelligence3 and Siri AI4, an entirely new version of Siri, rolling out in beta in English with iOS 27, to bring AI capabilities together with a user’s personal context to become an intelligent personal hub with privacy and security at the core. iPhone Duo is available in two refined colors: star white and night sky. iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max are available in four elegant finishes: black, silver, glacier, and an all-new burgundy.

iPhone Duo and iPhone 18 Pro models feature eSIM5, offering greater flexibility, better security, seamless connectivity compared to traditional physical SIM cards, and more battery life on eSIM-only models. iPhone Duo features an eSIM-only design that saves internal space to maximize battery capacity while eSIM-only models of iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max take advantage of the space formerly occupied by the physical SIM with a larger battery that provides two additional hours of video playback.
