It looks like the new iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max will keep the same general size as the previous models, but they might have a noticeably larger camera module, which could make the back of the phones a bit thicker.
Recent reports claim that the thickness of the iPhone 18 Pro Max, including the camera setup, might rise to around 13.77mm, up from 12.92mm in the last version. This increase is mainly due to bigger camera components instead of the phone itself getting thicker.
The upgraded camera system is rumored to feature a new 48-megapixel ultra-large main image sensor, along with a variable-aperture camera. This new lens would let in different amounts of light, helping to take better photos in various lighting situations.
On top of the improved main camera, there are whispers that Apple is also enhancing the telephoto lens, which could further bulk up the camera housing.
Over the years, Apple Inc. (AAPL) has consistently increased the size of iPhone cameras to boost image quality, low-light performance, and zoom features.
As of now, Apple hasn't officially unveiled the iPhone 18 Pro series or confirmed any of these specs.
