The release of iPhone 18 marks a big change in the way Apple operates, with rumors suggesting that the phone won't make the September launch event as usual. Instead, it's said to be arriving early next year, alongside the lower-priced iPhone 18e. Sadly, the line between iPhone 18 and 18e may be a little more blurred than usual, and not just because of that tandem release.
According to the leaker Fixed Focus Digital on Weibo, Apple is actively looking for ways to control the cost of iPhone 18 production. In other words, we could see various downgrades as Apple attempts to ride the storm of RAMageddon and keep the entry-level iPhone at the same $799 price tag as its predecessors.
