<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”><strong><em>iPhone 18 Leaks: </em></strong>Apple&rsquo;s upcoming iPhone 18 lineup has already kept fans guessing, and just when things seemed clear, talk of a foldable iPhone has entered the picture. It feels like Apple is not putting all its eggs in one basket this time, with different launch timelines being discussed. While many expected the usual September reveal, new reports suggest a different plan.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>So the big question is simple: will the foldable iPhone arrive alongside the iPhone 18, or will Apple take a separate route for it?</span></p>
<h2><span style=”color: #ba372a;”><strong>When Will iPhone Fold And iPhone 18 Models Launch?</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>According to Apple analyst Tim Long from Barclays, the iPhone 18 base model might not follow the usual September timeline. Instead, it could be announced in March next year.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>However, the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max are still expected to launch in September this year, sticking to Apple&rsquo;s traditional schedule.</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>As for the foldable iPhone, shipments are likely to begin in December this year. This suggests that Apple may position it between its major releases rather than bundling it with the main lineup.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>A similar approach was seen in 2017 when the iPhone 8 series launched in September, followed by the iPhone X in November.</span></p>
<h2><span style=”color: #ba372a;”><strong>What Other iPhone Models Could Arrive With iPhone 18 Base Variant?</strong></span></h2>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>The report also mentions that Apple could introduce two more devices alongside the iPhone 18 base model in March.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>These may include a lower-end iPhone 18e and either an iPhone 18 Plus or an iPhone Air 2. The mention of a Plus model stands out, as there have been no strong reports supporting its return so far.</span></p>
<p><span style=”font-weight: 400;”>Past data suggest that both Plus and Air models have not performed as well as other variants. This makes the possibility of a new Plus model uncertain. Since these claims are new, it is best to take them with caution for now.</span></p>
