With iPhone Duo preorders just begun and iPhone 18 Pro on the market for about a month, it's easy to think about what's coming next. Apple has a big 2027 iPhone release year planned. First, the company will continue the iPhone 18 lineup after introducing a split release schedule last month. In the fall, Apple will debut new flagships celebrating the 20th anniversary of the iPhone.
Spring 2027 brings the iPhone 18, introducing Apple's base iPhone in the spring for the first time. Key rumors include more RAM, thermal upgrades, and the new Apple C2 modem. The A20 chip will power the device, likely starting at $899.
The iPhone 18e will be a chip bump from A19 to A20, debuting alongside the iPhone 18. The iPhone Air 2 is the most anticipated spring release, featuring an ultrawide camera, smaller Dynamic Island, C2 modem, and a larger 3500 mAh battery — a 10% improvement.
Fall 2027 features the iPhone 20 Pro for the 20th anniversary, with a fully redesigned glassy design, slimmer bezels, smaller Dynamic Island, hole punch selfie camera, and under-display Face ID. The iPhone Duo 2 will follow with next-generation Apple Silicon featuring the A21 Pro chip.
