Overview
- Multiple reports consolidate leaks that the Pro models will keep 6.3‑inch and 6.9‑inch displays while moving Face ID under the screen with a smaller, top‑left selfie cutout.
- Apple is rumored to use an A20 Pro processor built on TSMC’s 2nm process with new packaging, targeting higher performance and efficiency.
- Supply‑chain chatter points to Apple‑designed wireless chips, including a C1X/C2 cellular modem and an N1‑class part for Wi‑Fi 7, Bluetooth 6, and Thread.
- Camera changes reportedly include a variable aperture on at least one rear lens, with the Pro Max possibly getting a slightly thicker chassis to fit a larger battery.
- Coverage continues to frame all details as unconfirmed, with timing expectations centered on a September debut for Pro models and a staggered rollout for the rest still uncertain; fringe items like satellite web browsing remain single‑source.
