What’s still coming in Apple’s iPhone 18 lineup

Apple has already released the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and foldable iPhone Duo. The base iPhone 18, the lower-cost 18e, and the updated Air 2 are expected in spring 2027. The article explains the staggered launch schedule and what buyers can expect from the remaining models.
Apple split its iPhone 18 rollout, placing the Pro, Pro Max and folding Duo first and leaving the standard 18, 18e and Air 2 for early 2027. The Pro and Pro Max arrived in September, while the Duo followed in October; limited supply may make the foldable hard to find without a preorder.
Known pricing for the released models starts at £1,199/$1,199 for the Pro, £1,299/$1,299 for the Pro Max and £1,999/$1,999 for the Duo. Apple has not disclosed prices for the three remaining phones, though last year’s equivalents and recent increases suggest possible rises.
The staggered schedule may affect budget-conscious buyers most, since they must wait until 2027 while premium customers can buy now. It could also shape upgrade planning and resale values, and limited foldable stock may frustrate early adopters. Higher expected prices for the remaining models may influence household tech spending, though the effect is likely modest and uneven.
