Photos and parts lists for Apple's unreleased iPhone 18 Pro have surfaced on the dark web following a data breach at a key supplier. The leaked images show a triple-camera setup and drop test footage of the device.
The breach affected Tata Electronics, an India-based manufacturer responsible for assembling iPhones and producing components for Apple. Reuters confirmed the leak, which includes detailed specifications and imagery of the iPhone 18 Pro.
The leaked photos reveal a three-camera layout on the device, along with Apple's standard branding. A source provided Reuters with images purportedly from drop testing, suggesting the device was already in testing phases before the security breach.
This marks the second major incident involving Apple's supply chain in as many weeks. Tata Electronics acknowledged the breach but has not disclosed the full scope of compromised data. The company has not yet commented on measures being taken to prevent future incidents.
Apple typically keeps unreleased iPhone specifications under strict confidentiality during development. Early leaks of hardware designs and components have become increasingly common as the company's supply chain expands globally.
