iPhone 18 Pro Revealed: Variable Aperture Camera And New ‘Dark Cherry’ Color Revealed

The use of variable apertures within these cameras will provide an unprecedented level of flexibility and functionality for mobile photography, with far greater control over the quality and clarity of photos taken under various lighting conditions. This will also give some additional verification to Ming-Chi Kuo, who has been a long-time analyst for Apple and has been quoted as predicting this same feature. Should Apple pursue production of variable aperture cameras on their next-generation mobile devices, they will be one of only a few manufacturers that produce mobile devices with camera functionality that is similar to that of DSLR cameras.

Recently, a number of rumors have indicated that the iPhone 18 will be available in new colors. One popular rumor is that dark cherry (a rich shade of red) will replace the controversial shade of cosmic orange that was previously used by Apple on iPhones. 

In addition to dark cherry, there are rumors that the iPhone 18 will also be available in light blue, dark gray, and silver, all of which may feature both modern and classic designs.

Some additional rumors include that Apple may remove the traditional black color from its iPhone Pro models altogether. Established Apple fans, who regularly receive a black iPhone, may disagree about the newly introduced colours available for use. According While the new colours may represent Apple's biggest change in their mobile division yet, the iPhone 18 line does not appear to have an official launch date (based on reports) until September of 2026. It is expected that the iPhone will have at least two new features — camera advancements and completely redesigned phones.
