Summary
A diagnostics log found in files stolen from Tata Electronics confirms the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max will use a variable-aperture main camera with Sony’s IMX905 sensor.
The leak suggests Apple changed little else in the camera stack: the IMX905 keeps the same 1.22μm pixel size as its predecessor, while the telephoto, ultrawide, LiDAR and selfie cameras remain unchanged.
Apple is also expected to raise prices by as much as $200 on the two Pro models, with the report citing a memory-chip shortage and higher component costs.
The iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max are expected to debut in September alongside the iPhone Ultra, turning a ransomware breach at an Apple supplier into an early look at flagship hardware.
