Summary
A new Weibo leak says Apple will give both the iPhone 18 and 18e the same 6.3-inch OLED display and 4,430 mAh battery when they arrive in spring 2027.
The 4,430 mAh cell would lift the standard iPhone 18 about 20% from the iPhone 17's 3,692 mAh, while the regular model is also said to lose its physical SIM slot.
Display specs would still split the lineup: the iPhone 18 is tipped for a 120Hz LTPO OLED panel, while the 18e would stay at 60Hz.
Camera and chip details suggest further differentiation, with both phones reportedly using binned A20 chips on TSMC's 2nm process, but the iPhone 18 keeping dual rear cameras and the 18e a single 48MP shooter.
Apple is expected to announce the iPhone 18, 18e and Air 2 in March or April 2027, with production of the standard iPhone 18 reportedly starting later this month.
