Bright HDR OLED for everyday clarity
The Super Retina XDR OLED panel reaches up to 2000 cd/m² outdoors and 1600 cd/m² for HDR content. Because pixel density is 460 ppi, text looks crisp and photos reveal fine detail. True Tone and Wide colour (P3) keep tones natural in any light. In practice, Dynamic Island integrates alerts neatly without interrupting your view.
Fast A18 performance with Neural Engine
The A18 chip uses two performance and four efficiency cores for balanced speed and battery life. Its 16-core Neural Engine accelerates Apple Intelligence tasks such as on-device transcription. Graphics are handled by five GPU cores for responsive gaming and editing. So demanding apps feel smooth now and in future iOS updates.
Pro-grade dual camera with stabilised 48 MP capture
The dual rear system pairs a 48 MP main camera with a 12 MP ultra-wide lens for 120° views. Optical Image Stabilisation and a fast f/1.6 aperture help in low light, while Photonic Engine and Deep Fusion refine detail. You get 4x optical zoom range and up to 10x digital zoom for flexibility. Portrait mode, Night mode and macro are supported for creative control.
All-day battery with fast and wireless charging
Lithium‑Ion technology delivers up to 27 hours of video playback or 100 hours of audio. USB‑C charging supports up to 30 W with Power Delivery for quick top‑ups. Wireless charging is also supported for cable‑free convenience. The battery is designed for 1000 charge cycles to maintain endurance.
Designed for durability with IP68 protection
The aluminium and glass housing carries an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance. It is tested to withstand immersion up to 6 metres, subject to conditions. Ceramic Shield front glass and an oleophobic coating help resist everyday wear. We also note the fingerprint‑resistant finish to keep the Black colour looking clean.
Smart connectivity and UK network readiness
This model supports 5G NR and mmWave, plus penta‑band 3G and 4G LTE for broad compatibility. Dual SIM is available via NanoSIM and eSIM for travel or separate plans. Wi‑Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.3 provide fast, stable links to accessories and routers. GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou ensure precise positioning.
iOS 18, Apple Intelligence and built‑in safety
iOS 18 brings Apple Intelligence features with on‑device processing and privacy. Emergency SOS via satellite, Crash Detection and Roadside Assistance add peace of mind. The Action button offers quick access to camera, flashlight, translate and more. Accessibility options include VoiceOver, Live Captions and AssistiveTouch.
