The iPhone 18 series will get a variable aperture main camera, according to a trusted analyst.
This feature first debuted on Samsung smartphones and is currently found on devices from HUAWEI, HONOR, Xiaomi, and more.
This would enable more realistic portrait-style shots, brighter images, and more.

The iPhone 16 series (https://www.androidauthority.com/apple-iphone-16-3368121/) has only been out for just under two months, but there’s been no shortage of iPhone 17 series rumors. If that’s not enough, a trusted source has now revealed a major iPhone 18 series detail.

Noted analyst Ming-Chi Kuo (https://medium.com/@mingchikuo/sunny-optical-to-benefit-significantly-from-apples-optical-order-growth-and-spec-upgrades-over-220ec84343ad) has reported (spotted via Jukanlosreve (https://x.com/Jukanlosreve/status/1854758032464658947) on X) that the “high-end” iPhone 18 will get a variable aperture main camera. The analyst says this feature, which is seen on several Android camera phones (https://www.androidauthority.com/best-camera-phones-670620/), will “significantly” enhance the photography experience. The feature was initially rumored to appear on the iPhone 17 range (https://www.androidauthority.com/iphone-17-variable-aperture-camera-3463740/), but it looks like it’ll now debut one year later.
