The iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max are officially on sale worldwide today, and Apple fans have been eagerly awaiting this moment. These flagship devices come with improved battery life, a more powerful chip, and a significantly enhanced camera system featuring a new mechanical aperture.
Long Lines at Apple Stores
Despite the high prices of these phones starting at £1199, Apple fans formed long lines outside Apple stores in Kuala Lumpur, Sydney, and Singapore early this morning. Photos released from these cities show a large crowd of people trying to buy the new iPhones.
Black Market Sellers Await Customers
While fans are purchasing the new iPhone, black market sellers are also waiting outside Apple stores in Hangzhou, China, to buy the phones from customers. This indicates a high demand for the iPhone 18 Pro.
These phones were introduced last week at an event in Cupertino, but they became available for purchase today. In terms of appearance, these phones are quite similar to their predecessors, the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, but they have significant internal changes.
Greg Joswiak, Apple's Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing, said about the new features of these phones: "With the iPhone 18 Pro, we have made advancements in areas that our users care about most: camera, performance, battery, and artificial intelligence." He added, "This phone allows users to capture stunning photos and videos with a variable aperture, providing more control for professionals."
The iPhone 18 Pro is available in four different colors: black, silver, a new color called glacier, and red. While fans are lining up at Apple stores to purchase the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, many are also waiting for the new dual iPhone model.
The dual iPhone, Apple's first foldable device, will be released on October 23, and it is expected to create even longer lines at stores.
