Apple is set to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max next week, according to a new report by Mark Gurman of Bloomberg. The report details several key features of the flagship devices, including a new "mechanical aperture" camera feature and improved vapor chambers.
The mechanical aperture feature, also referred to as "variable aperture," is designed to fine-tune light adjustments and depth control. While the camera upgrade has been discussed previously, this report provides more insight into its functionality.
In addition to the camera feature, the report confirms that the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max will offer better battery life and improved vapor chambers to prevent overheating. This is a welcome addition, as better battery life and heat management have been long-awaited improvements for Apple's flagship devices.
Another notable detail revealed in the report is that Apple is introducing "in-house C2 modems" to the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max. This is not a new rumor, but it is worth mentioning, as some reports have suggested Apple may return to using Qualcomm modems this year. The use of in-house C2 modems suggests Apple is taking more control over its hardware components.
