ABANS UNVEILS APPLE’S IPHONE 18 LINEUP AND IPHONE DUO AT SIMULTANEOUS LAUNCHES IN COLOMBO
Abans, Sri Lanka’s leading authorised Apple partner, brings the latest innovations from Apple to local consumers with the simultaneous launch of the all-new iPhone 18 lineup and the revolutionary iPhone Duo at Apple Mono stores at One Galle Face Mall (OGF) and Colombo City Centre (CCC) on 23 October 2026.
Marking a significant milestone for Apple enthusiasts across Sri Lanka, this launch introduces the latest generation of iPhones through its longstanding partner, Abans, combining leading technology, sophisticated design and intelligent features to elevate everyday experiences. In a first for Sri Lanka, Abans will launch Apple’s first-ever foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo, on par with the global launch, reinforcing its commitment to bringing the best Apple innovations to local consumers without delay.
The simultaneous launch at the two Apple Mono stores further strengthens Abans’ position as a trusted destination for genuine Apple products, giving customers in Colombo the opportunity to experience the newest iPhone innovations at two premier retail locations.
The iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max set a new benchmark for smartphone performance and photography. Powered by Apple’s A20 Pro chip, both models feature an advanced 48MP Fusion Main camera with variable aperture, offering greater creative control and improved results across different lighting conditions. Enhanced thermal management supports sustained performance, while significant battery improvements enable users to do more throughout the day. Available in black, silver, glacier and the new burgundy finish, the Pro models also introduce a more versatile Dynamic Island and the latest iOS 27 experience.
Making its debut as Apple’s first foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo brings a new dimension to mobile technology. Its innovative design combines a compact 5.4-inch outer display with an expansive 7.6-inch inner display, creating a versatile device for multitasking, gaming and immersive content consumption. Crafted from Grade 5 titanium and powered by the A20 Pro chip, the iPhone Duo combines premium manufacturing with powerful performance. Its advanced 48MP camera system and iOS 27 features further enhance the experience, whether the device is folded or fully open.
Both product lines integrate Apple Intelligence and the next-generation Siri AI, bringing more personal, context-aware assistance into everyday tasks, with privacy and security remaining central to the experience.
