Leaked battery details suggest Apple's iPhone 18 Pro Max could outlast Samsung's Galaxy S26 Ultra, raising uncomfortable questions about Android's flagship priorities. The post iPhone 18 Pro Max leak touts an unexpected win over Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra appeared first on Digital Trends.

After three difficult years, Apple has staged a sharp comeback in China. And according to analysts, part of the credit may belong to an unexpected factor: a bright orange iPhone.

Apple's iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max have been runaway hits in China, but it has nothing to do with new AI or camera features – it's largely down to the color. The Cosmic Orange finish made available exclusively on Apple's high-end Pro models has been widely dubbed "Hermès orange" by Chinese consumers who associate the vivid hue with the French luxury brand's signature color.

The same leaker also suggested that there will be a new telephoto camera on the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. Though the aperture on this won’t be variable, it’s claimed, it will be bigger, again allowing more light to hit the sensor. This has benefits not just in lower light but also affects control over image noise, for instance.

Macworld reports that the iPhone 17 Pro’s new Cosmic Orange color became an unexpected hit in China, driving record sales through its status symbol appeal. The color’s resemblance to luxury Hermès orange and the linguistic connection between ‘orange’ and ‘success’ in Mandarin created strong cultural resonance.
