iPhone 18 Pro pros, cons and verdict
Pros
- 120 Hz ProMotion screen: smoother scrolling and animation
- 4x telephoto camera for zoomed photos
- Up to 34 hours of video playback, among the best of any iPhone
- 48 MP main camera for detailed photos
Cons
- One of the most expensive iPhones at launch (₹1,64,900)
- Shorter battery life than the iPhone 18 Pro Max: up to 34 hours of video playback against 43
Our verdict. The iPhone 18 Pro suits people who want a telephoto camera and a smooth 120 Hz screen. Its strongest points are the 120 Hz ProMotion screen and the 4x telephoto camera. The trade-offs are a high launch price and less battery life than the iPhone 18 Pro Max.
