A significant leak regarding the iPhone 18 Pro has emerged, revealing features such as a Cherry Red finish, a smaller Dynamic Island, and a larger vapor chamber. This leak comes even before the iPhone 17 has completed its first year on the market, indicating a shift in focus towards Apple's upcoming hardware. The timing is notable as Apple has recently regained its position as the leading smartphone manufacturer globally, according to Tech-ish.

According to Tech-ish, Apple’s event was set to begin at 8pm Kenyan time, with expectations including the iPhone 18 Pro, a foldable iPhone Ultra, and John Ternus’s first keynote. The outlet’s headline also framed the presentation around a new CEO, though the blurb emphasizes product announcements and Ternus’s appearance. Details remain based on the publication’s preview rather than confirmed announcements in the provided text.

Apple unveiled its latest generation of iPhones at an event headlined by new CEO John Ternus, who took over from Tim Cook on September 1. The lineup was widely expected to include a foldable version, following similar products from rivals such as Samsung, Motorola and Google. According to AP, observers described the foldable launch as typical of Apple's strategy of waiting for new technologies to mature before entering the market.

Apple is set to launch at least five new iPhone models between the second half of 2026 and the first half of 2027, marking one of its most ambitious product cycles. The company is also reportedly increasing production plans for its first foldable iPhone, according to supply-chain reports.

Apple is expected to unveil its long-awaited foldable iPhone, rumored to be called the iPhone Ultra with a starting price of $2,000, according to reports cited by Vanguard. The launch is framed as the first major test for the company's new CEO, as the tech giant enters the foldable smartphone market. Details remain based on speculation ahead of an official announcement, with the device anticipated to mark a significant shift in Apple's iPhone lineup and pricing strategy.

Apple is expected to unveil its first foldable iPhone, rumoured to be called the iPhone Duo, at a major launch event beginning at 19:00 South African time. According to The South African, the handset will be available in South Africa but will carry a high price tag. The device would mark Apple's entry into the foldable smartphone market, a segment currently dominated by rivals such as Samsung. Details on specifications and exact pricing remain unconfirmed ahead of the event.
