Tipster claims it will be powered by a new 2nm A20 chipset
A price hike is also rumoured due to component costs

Following the launch of the iPhone 18 Pro series and the iPhone Duo in September, Apple's focus is now expected to shift to the vanilla iPhone 18. The standard model is rumoured to debut early next year as part of the Cupertino-based tech giant's staggered launch strategy. While Apple has yet to confirm any details, a tipster has hinted at key specifications of the purported handset. The iPhone 18 is tipped to sport a 120Hz OLED display and pack a new-generation chipset under the hood.

According to tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo, the iPhone 18 is expected to launch in the first half of 2027 alongside the iPhone 18e and iPhone Air 2 (via Gizmochina). Apple is said to be planning to begin production of the standard model in November. The iPhone 18 is tipped to feature a 6.3-inch OLED display with 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. According to the tipster, it may retain Apple's standard Dynamic Island design and be powered by the next-generation A20 chipset, built using a 2nm process.

Pricing, meanwhile, could also be a point of interest for the iPhone 18. DCS claims that the purported handset could witness a price hike. However, the tipster did not specify how much the handset could cost.

For comparison, Apple launched the iPhone 17 in India last year at a starting price of Rs. 82,900 for the base variant with 256GB of onboard storage. However, skyrocketing prices of memory components have resulted in price hikes across Apple's lineup. The iPhone 17 currently retails for Rs. 99,900.

Previous reports suggest that the standard iPhone 18 and iPhone 18e could also receive a memory upgrade to support Apple's on-device artificial intelligence features. TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo claimed that both models could ship with 9GB of RAM, up from 8GB on the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17e. According to Kuo, the additional memory could help the handsets handle Apple Intelligence features more smoothly as iOS 27 brings tighter system-level integration with the company's AI platform.
