Will Apple release iPhone 18 in 2026?

Apple has a strong track record of releasing new iPhones annually, and the 2026 release date is within a plausible timeframe given their product cycle. However, technological advancements, supply chain constraints, and potential economic downturns could delay or alter Apple’s plans. While a release is likely, the high crowd-implied probability may be overestimating the certainty.
