The iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max are Available at Cinch!

It’s finally the moment, tech enthusiasts in Singapore have waited for: Apple has announced its most advanced flagship hardware release ever. 

The iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max are available now on Cinch, starting from S$70/month. Coming amidst a competitive market that is full of incremental and nuanced innovations, this version marks a seismic shift when it comes to performance, photographic versatility, and energy consumption.

So whether you’re looking to enhance your mobile photography capabilities or upgrade to a new personal daily driver, here’s what you need to know before hitting the buy button.

The new flagship architecture is centered around the Apple A20 Pro Chip, which is based on a revolutionary 2nm process node, the industry’s most advanced. With such technology, Apple is able to fit tiny transistors into a footprint that’s exponentially more dense than its chip predecessors. 

With 6-core CPU, 7-core GPU, and dual 16-core Neural Engine, A20 Pro is built for high-power real-time compute workloads. On-device machine learning and text-to-video works almost instantly, video rendering in mobile video editing software takes seconds instead of minutes, and gaming without thermal throttling is silky-smooth. 

The A20 Pro has power efficiency algorithms. Through managing background tasks with per-CPU granularity, the processor avoids wasting power that could otherwise be used for high-performance tasks later in the day.

While most fixed-aperture lenses depend solely on software blurs, the main wide camera has 6 laser-cut mechanical blades that switch between 6 aperture settings between f/1.5 and f/4.0. 

• Natural Depth of Field: Opening wide to f/1.5 yields true, optical blur for portrait photography without artificial edge detection errors.

• Sharper Low-Light Photography: Larger mechanical aperture enables maximum light gathering in low light conditions and reduces sensor noise without relying on aggressive night-mode long exposures. 

• Blurring the Background: Using an aperture of f/4.0, you’ll put the entire photo in sharp focus, from subjects in the foreground to the back row.

Power anxiety is still one of the biggest pain points for power users. The iPhone 18 Pro Max is designed with re-engineered internal space for a significantly larger battery pack with advanced thermal management.

With the 2nm architecture of A20 Pro, the iPhone 18 Pro max reaches a new standard of device endurance, up to 43 hours of non-stop video playback. 

That means, for mobile professionals around Singapore, one day equates to day-long mobility. You can do video meetings one after another, go anywhere with maps, record ultra HD videos, and stream media in the evenings – all while not using a power bank. When your battery dips into single digits, fast wired charging through the USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port can easily bring your power back to 50% in just about 15 minutes.

When you subscribe to the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro max with Cinch, you’ll get the flexible, hassle free service layer of modern tech use of. As a subscriber, you can select a package to suit your exact financial and operational needs – Core, Cinch+, or Cinch Max.

1. Is subscribing to an iPhone more cost-effective than buying outright? Subscribing is generally more cost-effective for users who prefer upgrading their devices every 1 to 2 years. Buying a flagship phone outright requires a large initial outlay, and you take on 100 percent of the device's depreciation risk over time. A subscription with Cinch breaks the cost into predictable monthly payments, includes built-in service layers for repairs, and allows you to trade up to new tech effortlessly without having to manage secondary resale marketplaces.

2. What happens if I accidentally drop or break my iPhone while on Cinch? Depending on your chosen plan, repairs for accidental drops, or cracked displays are covered under transparent, fixed repair fees rather than full out-of-pocket repair bills. On top of that, if you are on the Cinch Max plan, you can request a working replacement device delivered on the next business day, allowing you to keep both phones for up to 3 working days so you can seamlessly transfer your data.

3. How does early upgrading work with Cinch Max? Under Cinch Max, you gain the flexibility to upgrade your smartphone within the last 6 months of your term without paying early termination fees. Simply return your active device in good working order, select your new device, and roll directly into your next subscription term.

4. Can I change my subscription plan midway through my term? You select your plan—Core, Cinch Plus, or Cinch Max—at checkout, and it runs for the duration of your selected term. While you cannot switch plans during an active contract term, you have complete freedom to choose a different plan configuration whenever you renew or upgrade to a new device.

5. What condition must the phone be in when I return or upgrade it? Devices returned at the end of a term or during an early upgrade should be in normal working condition with standard wear and tear accepted. Minor cosmetic marks from daily use are fine. If the phone has functional failures or structural damage (like a cracked screen), it will simply be repaired under your plan's fixed repair fee before finalizing the return.
