Apple's iPhone 18 Pro adds variable camera aperture and a more powerful chip

Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro introduces a variable-aperture camera system that lets users manually adjust exposure for greater creative control, alongside enhanced computational-photography features. It is powered by the new A20 Pro SoC, a 2 nm chip with a 6-core CPU (two super-cores up to 20% faster), a 7-core GPU delivering up to 40% higher performance, and a dual-Neural-Engine design for accelerated machine-learning tasks.
