Overview

• According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman and Counterpoint Research’s Ross Young, Apple plans to shrink the Dynamic Island on the iPhone 18 Pro rather than remove it entirely.
• An alternate leak from The Information’s Wayne Ma suggests Apple may adopt a small hole-punch cutout in the top-left corner to house the front-facing camera.
• Sources indicate that under-display Face ID components will likely remain visible on the iPhone 18 Pro, postponing full under-screen integration.
• Analysts expect Apple to introduce under-screen Face ID sensors by 2028 and move the selfie camera under the display by 2030 as part of its phased all-screen roadmap.
• These reported display updates aim to refine the iPhone’s design and help Apple stay competitive with similar advances on Android devices.
