The tech world is quite fascinating and unpredictable. We haven’t yet moved from the Apple iPhone 16 lineup which was launched just a few months ago, and we have already started hearing about the iPhone 17 and 18 series. Last time, we covered some rumours concerning the iPhone 17 concept images. And now, in this post, we are going to cover a very interesting leak about the iPhone 18 Pro.
According to Apple’s past releases, the iPhone 17 series will likely launch in September 2025, and the iPhone 18 series will follow in September 2026. This means we still have a while to wait for the iPhone 18 series. However, be prepared for leaks and rumors that may keep coming until then.
Apple iPhone 18 Pro may get support of variable aperture in cameras
According to the renowned Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple is planning to introduce the support of variable aperture in the cameras of iPhone 18 Pro. And since the Pro is getting it, we can presume that the Pro Max will get it too. Anyway, what’s more interesting is that, past reports tells us that this feature was originally supposed to come with the iPhone 17 series.
But it looks like either Apple has dropped the plan to introduce variable aperture with the iPhone 17 lineup or the circumstances have pushed it to do that. But anyway, say it directly or indirectly, the Apple fans will now have to wait another year from the launch of iPhone 17 series to get their hands on variable aperture feature.

If you are not familiar with the term variable aperture, then take it this way: the aperture on a camera lens is what decides how much light should enter into it. You can find this option in almost all the professional cameras and some flagship Android devices. However, having narrower aperture isn’t necessarily better than having larger aperture.
If you want to take a simple photo in broad daylight with everything being in the focus, then smaller aperture can be better for you. But if you want a take photo without pushing ISO or exposure, then larger aperture might help. And and all, it depends on your usage. And having a variable aperture can definitely be a plus.
