Apple Launches iPhone 18 Pro Models With Siri AI

Apple has announced two new phones called the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.

They cost at least $1,199 and $1,299, respectively.

People can pre-order them on September 12.

The phones go on sale on September 18.

They use a new A20 Pro chip designed to make them faster.

Apple says the chip also improves tasks that use artificial intelligence.

Siri has been redesigned to understand more personal requests and work across many apps.

The cameras now have a variable aperture, which gives users more control over light and background blur.

Apple also says the phones can charge to 50 percent in about 15 minutes.
