A leaker with only a mixed track record is doubling down on the rumor that the iPhone 18 Pro is not getting a major redesign, but now says it’s because the iPhone 17 Pro was so successful.
Back in December 2025, leaker ”Fixed Focus Digital” said that the iPhone 18 Pro wouldn’t see visible changes ”as large as everyone thought.” Now he or she is back on Chinese social media site Weibo to say exactly the same thing, but with one qualification.
In translation, the leaker describes the iPhone 17 has having been enough of a hit for Apple to be celebrating with champagne. Then Fixed Focus Detail that the iPhone 18 series will not change much.
He or she does then go on to say that the A20 and A20 Pro processors expected to be in the iPhone 18 range will be significant. Or at least that they will be the most significant part of the update.
