According to Engadget, the new iPhone 18 Pro starts at $1,199 and the 18 Pro Max starts at $1,299, both $100 more than the previous 17 Pro lineup.\n\nThe Dynamic Island on the iPhone 18 Pro has been made smaller and now supports up to three simultaneous Live Activities, as reported by MacRumors and AppleInsider. This is an improvement from the previous model, which only supported two simultaneous Live Activities.\n\nThe iPhone 18 Pro is also available in a new burgundy color, as mentioned by Engadget. The upgraded Dynamic Island was described by Kaiann Drance, VP of iPhone Product Marketing, as \"smaller, more useful, and even better for seeing live information at a glance,\" according to AppleInsider.",
