iPhone 18 Price Leak Surfaces as Current iPhone Models Get Major Discounts
Early leaks reveal the expected price and features of the iPhone 18, while ongoing sale offers are making several existing iPhone models available at significantly lower prices today.
Apple may still be months away from unveiling the iPhone 18, but early leaks have already sparked interest among smartphone enthusiasts. Reports circulating online suggest the next generation iPhone could arrive with upgraded hardware, a more powerful processor and a higher price than its predecessor. At the same time, buyers looking for an Apple smartphone today can take advantage of substantial discounts on current iPhone models.
According to the latest leaks, the iPhone 18 with 12GB RAM and 256GB of storage could be priced at around Rs 89999 in India. If this estimate proves accurate, the device will cost more than the current iPhone 17. Industry reports also suggest that Apple could launch the standard iPhone 18 sometime between March 13 and March 19, 2027, although the company has not confirmed any launch schedule.
Another report claims Apple may revise its launch strategy for the iPhone 18 lineup. Instead of releasing every model together, the company is expected to introduce the premium Pro and Pro Max variants first, possibly in September 2026. The standard iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e could reportedly arrive several months later in 2027. The move is believed to be aimed at giving Apple’s premium models a longer sales window before the entry level versions reach the market.
Leaked specifications indicate that the iPhone 18 could feature a 6.3 inch OLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and peak brightness of up to 3000 nits. Powering the device may be Apple’s next generation A20 processor paired with 12GB RAM and 256GB internal storage, offering improved performance for gaming, multitasking and artificial intelligence powered features.
Camera upgrades are also expected. The smartphone is rumored to include a dual rear camera setup featuring a 48 megapixel primary sensor with optical image stabilization and a 48 megapixel ultra wide camera. On the front, Apple may offer an 18 megapixel selfie camera for improved video calls and self portraits. Reports also suggest a larger battery along with support for 25W MagSafe wireless charging. While major design changes have not been mentioned so far, Apple is expected to introduce fresh color options while retaining a familiar design language.
