The iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max add two new devices to the lineup, with the latter packing what the Cupertino tech giant claims is "the largest increase in battery life ever on iPhone."

As we reported last week, affected iPhone 18 Pro Max users are unable to connect to the AT&T network for phone calls, text messages, or data either persistently or intermittently, and their devices typically enter SOS mode as a result.

A true pro in his field will always get amazing results, even with a phone. In this case, Apple gave the iPhone Duo to two photographers – Jake Michaels, who contributed one of the photos, and Jason Nocito.

The underlying cause has not been confirmed, and Apple has yet to publicly comment on the matter.
