Apple skips base iPhone 18, launches Pro models and foldable Duo this fall

Apple held its 'surprise and shine' event and unveiled the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and a new foldable iPhone Duo, but did not introduce a base iPhone 18 model. The standard iPhone 18 is expected to launch in spring, consistent with earlier rumors that Apple would limit its fall lineup to premium devices. In the absence of a new entry-level iPhone, Apple raised prices on its existing iPhone 17 lineup by $100 across the board. Even the older iPhone 16, still available for purchase, saw its price climb $100 back to its original $799 starting point. Apple has cited memory and chip shortages as likely factors contributing to the delay and pricing changes.

Apple Watch Series 12 revives ceramic casing for first time since 2019

Apple has reintroduced a ceramic option for the Apple Watch Series 12, marking the material's return to the lineup for the first time since the Series 5 in 2019. The premium variant is available in two finishes — pearl white and night blue — and is priced starting at $899, rising to $949 for the larger 46mm size. This positions the ceramic Series 12 well above the standard model's $399 entry price, targeting buyers willing to pay a significant premium. Apple has not revived the 'Apple Watch Edition' branding, which was last used prominently at the Series 4 launch, though the ceramic tier serves a similar luxury-focused audience. The material is valued for its scratch-resistant properties and high-end aesthetic appeal.
