Both models are powered by Apple\u2019s new A20 Pro chip, which the company describes as its most capable iPhone processor to date, offering up to 40% better sustained performance compared to previous generations. On the display front, the iPhone 18 Pro comes with a 6.3-inch Super Retina XDR screen supporting ProMotion technology at up to 120Hz, while the iPhone 18 Pro Max steps up to a larger 6.9-inch display with the same specifications. <!-- -->The biggest change, however, comes in the camera.

The US once again leads with the steepest discount.

Notably, the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max also debuts next-generation vapour chamber cooling system, the largest for Apple&#8217;s flagship lineup, designed to help sustain performance during particularly demanding tasks like gaming or heavy multitasking.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"33\"\/>Camera-wise, both models feature a triple rear camera setup consisting of a 48MP main sensor, a 48MP ultrawide lens, and a 48MP telephoto lens. In a first, both these models come with variable aperture in the main camera. Both devices run on iOS 27 out of the box, bringing a refined Liquid Glass interface design along with a range of Apple Intelligence features.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"35\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max price in India<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>In India, the iPhone 18 Pro starts at Rs 1,64,900 for the base 256GB variant, while the iPhone 18 Pro Max starts at Rs 1,79,900 for the same storage configuration.
