Available space is less and varies due to many factors. A standard configuration uses approximately 12GB to 17GB of space, including iOS 18 with its latest features and Apple apps that can be deleted. Apple apps that can be deleted use about 4.5GB of space, and you can download them back from the App Store. Storage capacity subject to change based on software version, settings, and iPhone model.
Size and weight vary by configuration and manufacturing process.
Available only in select cities and transit systems. Requires eligible device and OS version. See here for details.
Data plan required. 5G, LTE, VoLTE, and Wi‑Fi calling are available in select markets and through select carriers. Speeds are based on theoretical throughput and vary based on site conditions and carrier. For details on 5G and LTE support, contact your carrier and see apple.com/iphone/cellular.
FaceTime calling requires a FaceTime‑enabled device for the caller and recipient and a Wi‑Fi connection. Availability over a cellular network depends on carrier policies; data charges may apply.
