iPhone 18 Pro could be a no-brainer upgrade for lots of users

Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro is shaping up to be an attractive upgrade, with expected gains in design, battery life, and cameras.

New AI features in iOS 27, including a Siri overhaul, may not run on older iPhones, creating more incentive to replace them.

A smaller iPhone lineup and a new leasing plan could make upgrading simpler and help Apple drive replacement sales.
